The Cowboys turned the ball over five times in the first half as Spring Creek rolled to a 36-7 home victory.
Chaparral unveiled a new weapon last week. When Cowboys travel north to play Spring Creek in the Class 3A state semifinals on Saturday, they’ll do so with a new trick up their sleeve.
Everybody at my school is obsessed with the “Mannequin Challenge.” I decided to join the fun and do my version. Ready?

It’s the unofficial halfway point of the prep football season, and that means it’s time to give out the Fieldies.
Chaparral committed to the running game and cruised to a 34-8 road victory over Del Sol on Friday night.
Sure enough, league play in the Class 4A Sunset Region and Class 3A starts this week, the true indicator that summer is done. Even Bishop Gorman is taking a break from irking out-of-state fanbases to play a Southwest League contest against Bonanza. (I didn’t include that game in my picks, but, spoiler alert, Gorman is going to win.)
