Payson’s stellar offense and strong defense proved to be too much for Window Rock to handle, as the Longhorns overwhelmed the Scouts, 57-6, in a season opening Freedom game for both teams at Judd Avey Memorial Stadium in Fort Defiance last Friday.

Tuba City head football coach Rick Benjamin said for the Warriors to repeat as section champions and be successful this year depends on how quickly the team can unify as a team.

Last season, the Tohatchi Cougars fell on some hard times.

Area Arizona high schools began official football practice in preparing for the fall gridiron season.
