This crown came courtesy of defense, defense, defense. That came after the Rangers had driven the field and looked as if they would score. Another fumble recovery on the ensuing kick off lead to a Lobo touchdown. If you get a shut out in the playoffs, you are doing a pretty good job. Coach had been preaching defense all week.
Offense wins games but defense wins championships.
Seminole is fresh off a win over Friona, who ended the Loboes playoff run last year, 44-37 in over time. Hanna again found the end zone on a 13 yard run to send the Loboes into the locker room with a 12-0 lead at the half. The only scoring in the second half belonged to the Big Green defense. On a fourth and 24 play, the Lobo defense caused a fumble. Porras picked it up and ran into the end zone to increase the Lobo lead to 19-0 after Joel Najar kicked the extra point.
