Football Playoffs: Salpointe, Marana and Canyon del Oro in quarterfinals; Pusch Ridge and Willcox end seasons

I watched some of these young men since they were young boys. They were overlooked by some who didn’t think they were a “power” but power surrounds those of us who believe in it. The journey doesn’t end in victory and it definitely doesn’t end in defeat because there is no defeat, only another step on a journey that we all take together. (Andy Morales/AllSportsTucson)
