Rams meet Coolidge in conference opener at home tonight

53

The Maricopa Rams (1-2) varsity football team will open up conference play tonight against (0-2) Coolidge.

The Rams were able to secure their first win of the season last week against Bourgade Catholic 28-20. The highlight of the win was the strength of the Rams’ ground attack.

If the Rams hope to string together two victories in a row, they must continue that strong ground attack and improve upon their defense and aerial attack.

Last season the Coolidge team was 10-3 and made the state 3A finals. In spite of their slow start, they could be a tough match up for the Rams.

Coolidge has been blown out in their first two games of the season by a combined score of 6-62. Before the Rams’ win last Friday they had been outscored in their first two games 6-83.
