Sights and Sounds: Week 4 (Video and Recaps)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mother Nature won Week 4. Rain and lightning impacted many games around the state on Friday and Saturday. But that didn't prevent some teams from producing instant classics. Las Cruces-Cleveland and Centennial-Rio Rancho went down to the final seconds with the teams from the south pulling out the thrilling road wins. Both games showed the 6A playoffs are going to be a battle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Del Norte at Capital</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Two teams looking for their first win of the season locked horns in rainy Santa Fe on Friday night. Capital scored a TD in the first half and took a 7-0 lead into halftime. Del Norte scored in the second half but it wasn't enough as the Jaguars held on for a 7-6 victory. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Video 1: Early First Quarter</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/jmbBaHXlFU4?si=CurCWCUR-8yCWB_T","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/jmbBaHXlFU4?si=CurCWCUR-8yCWB_T </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Video 2: Late First Quarter</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/ecqgfA1PNPQ?si=ASo4_3oVsfPwWy8e","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/ecqgfA1PNPQ?si=ASo4_3oVsfPwWy8e </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Video 3: Second Quarter</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/b7vQfNM9glY?si=Pl0crojxHxRjGtfo","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/b7vQfNM9glY?si=Pl0crojxHxRjGtfo </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Dexter at Pojoaque Valley</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dexter made the long trip to Pojoaque Valley for a Saturday afternoon kickoff. The two teams played just over a quarter before a Pojoaque Valley player suffered a serious injury on a kickoff, delaying the game about 15 minutes. Then the dark clouds came and with them, the lightning and rain. Shortly after 1:30 p.m., the game was halted. It never resumed. After a 2-1/2 hour delay, the coaches at Dexter and Pojoaque Valley decided to cancel the game and declare it a No Contest. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Video 1: Early First Quarter (Dexter TD)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/0YivTSfKYj8?si=cQ_sOhrzppGJcAlT","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/0YivTSfKYj8?si=cQ_sOhrzppGJcAlT </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Video 2: Late First Quarter</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/gAhc2KLw-Mk?si=eQsZfHZSNQ3oIBDK","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/gAhc2KLw-Mk?si=eQsZfHZSNQ3oIBDK </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Additional Highlights</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">FOOTBALL: Manzano beat Hope Christian 29-14 on Saturday.
