‘Twas the night before Halloween, and while most Pumas were at home getting ready for Halloween the next day, a small but loyal crowd came to the football game — and some in Minions outfits were going bananas.

The Pumas faced off against Vintage High School here at home. With a record of 1:7 prior to the game, the Pumas were itching to secure a win.

There were a few standout players in this game. First, Senior Andrew Godfrey scored an impressive three touchdowns. Godfrey also rushed for an additional 151 yards.

Junior Nathan Tejeda also scored a touchdown, bringing the total up to four touchdowns. Senior Gabriel Goodrich also scored a freekick, leading the Pumas’ overall score to be 27 points.

Despite this, Vintage’s team got the better of the Pumas, scoring 8 touchdowns and making all 8 subsequent freekicks, making their score 56.

This game brings Carrillo’s overall W:L ratio to 1:8. Although it has been a rough season for them, we can only hope that the team’s final game against Casa Grande will pull them ahead in the standings.
