The Tigers took an early 6-0 lead on a 5-yard fumble return by Kason Jacquez but the Lobos took over from there and scored 48 straight points for the win. Still, Davis is just as optimistic as Hayden head coach John Estrada.

“I’m proud of our younger guys for fighting just to get to the playoffs,” Davis said. “There are no excuses for losing to a great team but we only have three seniors and we are short on the line. We knew it was going to be a challenge because Hayden plays sound football but we are young and we will learn from this.”
