Saguaro got gashed up front, couldn't figure a way to cash in, and lost its season opener to big and powerful Bergen Catholic of New Jersey.
Bergen Catholic traveled 2,400 miles and a few time zones, then endured second-half cramps, especially from defensive end D.J. Samuels, but still asserted its power on Friday night.
Like 2019, when the Sabercats soaked up the preseason hype only to lose 18-10 at Cathedral Catholic in California early in that season, Saguaro might learn a few things. After that early 2019 loss, Saguaro went on to win the next 10 games before losing to Chandler 42-35 in the first-ever Arizona Interscholastic Association Open Division championship game.
"Schedule games against the best of the best and find out where we are now. Our game isn't to win Game 1. Our goal is to win Game 13. That game will help us get there."• It won't see bigger linemen on either side of the ball the rest of the season. The Crusaders have a 6-foot-6, 315-pound offensive tackle, and a 6-6, 330-pound defensive tackle. They have others across the line bigger than anybody Saguaro had.
Saguaro was dominated in the trenches in the first half when Bergen had 210 rushing yards on 27 carries with Saeen St. Fleur rushing for more than 100 yards and a touchdown. "We got really complacent after the defensive touchdown," Campanile said."I wish that we would have finished. We're young in some spots. But we need to finish that."
Last year, in a win at home against California's Sierra Canyon, Mohns looked like a genius when he called for a trick play with receiver Javon Jacobs throwing a touchdown pass that sparked Saguaro's win.
