Devine’s determined defense paved the way for the offense to get itself going in the second half as the Warhorses turned a slim 13-0 halftime lead into a 45-0 dismantling of Crystal City Friday night. The Javelinas had little success in moving the ball against a Warhorse defense that allowed only 27 yards rushing, picked off a pass, recovered a fumble, and gave up only three pass completions.
“It is always good to get a ‘W’ and I am proud of our guys,” stated Head Coach Paul Gomez after the lopsided victory.
