  • Straight Jackets

    There were a few highlights for the home fans to enjoy in Friday night’s football game at the Herrera Complex.

    For example, the West Las Vegas dance team put on a sharp performance at halftime to the tune of Foreigner’s hard rock anthem “Jukebox Hero.”

    And in the first quarter there was a scintillating moment when, aided by some pretty nifty blocking downfield, Nathan Vigil fielded a kickoff at his own 6-yard line and zipped across the field, finding his way to run the ball back 94 yards to the end zone.

    Nicoletta Litherland and Mary Miller split time at goalkeeper, preserving a shutout.

    And eighth grader Jesslyn De La Cruz got into the action too, scoring her first goal as a Lady Cardinal.

  • Lady Dons spikers open with a win

    For a little while, the West Las Vegas Lady Dons looked the part of a volleyball team taking the court for the first time this season.

    A few miscues too many occurred on their side of the net Thursday in Socorro, and they found themselves trailing one game to none. The host Lady Warriors took the opening set 25-19.

    But after bouncing back for the equalizer in a narrow 26-24 verdict in game two, West got into a groove.

    The Lady Dons took control 25-21 in game three and then put the match away by an identical score in game four.
