SMS Braves Football
The Braves gave up a touchdown on the opening kick-off to the visiting Ruidoso team on Wednesday, Sept. 17, and Ruidoso kept that momentum rolling throughout the game.
Socorro did have a great catch and run for a touchdown by #13 Jayce Angel in the second quarter, and Coach Avalos is still trying to get everyone in for some playing time and experience.
“Trying to play a lot of non-starters on special teams,” Avalos said.
They lost to the Ruidoso Braves 50-6 in the home game.
They were scheduled to play at Tularosa at home Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 6 p.m.
