Members of the Liberty High School football team are pictured during the Las Vegas Sun’s high school football media day at the Red Rock Resort on August 3rd, 2021. They include, from left, Germie Bernard, Anthony Jones and Sir Mells.

UNlV commit Jayden Maiava completed 16 of 21 passes for 260 yards and four touchdowns in Liberty’s 40-0 victory against Canyon Springs.

Maiava connected twice with Germie Bernard on scoring strikes, and once each with Ethan Hilliard and Anthony Jones.

Freshman Champ Kapanui added two rushing scores.

“It was a much cleaner effort in comparison to Week 1,” Liberty coach Rich Muraco said.
