WEST-LAS VEGAS 72, LOS ALAMOS 34: Damian Gallegos achieved a school record of eight lavish touchdowns when the hosts Dons (5: 0) rolled over the Hilltoppers (3: 3).

He now has 26 touchdowns in the season. Jaden Vigil had seven catches for 143 yards and two scores, and quarterback CJ Perea went 15-18 for 228 yards and three touchdowns. Los Alamos scored one goal on three consecutive kickoff returns. “That was the damper of the night,” said coach Adrian Gonzales, adding that communication was the key to the team’s success. “The kids were on the same side and the coaches were on the same side and we were able to move the ball effectively.”
