As soon as he saw the player he was covering make a catch along the right sideline and get away for a 33-yard touchdown, Donnie Butler knew he needed to do something to make up for the mistake.

Atonement came sooner than expected.

The Cimarron-Memorial junior defensive back returned the ensuing kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown, and the physical Spartans ground game racked up 367 yards in a 38-13 victory at Coronado on Friday night.

After outgaining the Cougars 181-29 in the first half and jumping to a 10-0 halftime advantage, Cimarron found itself in a battle again after allowing two long pass plays on the first drive of the second half, including the 33-yard touchdown against Butler.

Coronado's kickoff was squibbed down the middle of the field, but Butler fielded it cleanly.

"When I picked it up, the wall hadn't had a chance to form yet," Butler said. "So I just tried to get it in there behind them and get it up the field."

The return put the Spartans back ahead by 10 points and swung the momentum back their way.

"You could tell once we did that we took a deep breath and relaxed a bit. Otherwise, it may have been a whole different story," Cimarron coach Ron Smeltzer said.

The ground game took over from there.

Eric Brinkley ran for 96 yards and a score, and Eddie Wide added 86 yards and a touchdown.

But neither of the tailbacks was Cimarron's leading rusher for because quarterback Chazz Mitchell ran for 99 yards and a score on just four carries.

Mitchell split time with starting quarterback Nicholas Rhodes. Cimarron's quarterbacks failed to complete a pass on three attempts.

Brandon Marshall added 57 yards and a score, mostly late in the game when the Spartans were running out the clock.

Brady McManus completed 8 of 21 pass attempts for 159 yards and two scores for Coronado, including five completions to Taylor Knowles for 114 yards and a score.

• Las Vegas 40, Del Sol 12 -- At Las Vegas, O'Ryan Bradley completed 15 of 30 passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Wildcats past the Dragons.

Las Vegas came out strong, taking a 7-0 lead on a 59-yard run by Robert Hackett in the first quarter.

But the Wildcats responded with two touchdown passes from Bradley to Kevin Cormier and a late 26-yard sprint by reserve running back Chris Kelly to pull away.

Though Las Vegas committed several untimely penalties, the Wildcats racked up 465 yards and held Del Sol to 173.

• Durango 51, Eldorado 19 -- At Durango, Michael Mausbach rushed for 119 yards and three touchdowns on 11 carries to lead the Trailblazers over the Sundevils.

Durango jumped to a 44-0 lead, capitalizing on several early miscues.

In the first half, Eldorado botched a punt, lost a fumble and drew a penalty for too many players on the field that allowed the Trailblazers to keep possession.

All three mistakes led to Durango points as it built a 23-0 halftime lead.

Mausbach's touchdown runs of 34, 24 and 2 yards all came in the first half. Ryan Kuehl added 75 yards on 21 carries.

Eldorado's offense sputtered before waking up in the final period as Danny Otero threw for two touchdowns and ran for a third.

The Sundevils' Avant Gates caught eight balls for 189 yards and two touchdowns, including an 80-yard score.

• Bonanza 14, Arbor View 12 -- At Bonanza, Reggie Davis helped the Bengals erase a 12-0 deficit by catching second-half touchdown passes of 24 and 36 yards from Josh Heater to beat the Aggies.

His second TD reception came with 1:57 left in the fourth quarter. The drive was set up when Bonanza's Ben Hirabayashi recovered a fumbled snap on Arbor View's 35-yard line with 3:30 left.

The Aggies advanced to the Bengals 6-yard line on two consecutive Hill runs for 19 yards with 35 seconds left, but a quarterback sack and two Aggies penalties pushed them back to the 27.

The second penalty negated a Robbie Garvey field goal as time expired. Garvey tried again, but his 49-yard attempt fell short.
