    The Dublin Lions travel to Clifton Friday, Oct. 23 to face the 5-2 Cubs which are also looking for a win after a 42-7 loss to Hamilton.

    Dublin went scoreless on Cervetto Field Friday, Oct. 16 against the Comanche Indians.

    The 40-0 final score shows some impressive secondhalf defense on both sides as the Indians carried 5 of their 6 touchdowns over the goal line before halftime.

    Joe Salinas led the home team in holding Comanche with 10 tackles. Kyler Gaitan had 8 tackles, Juan Alvarez and Jax Johnson each added 6 tackles. Jaiden Gauna, Cayson Loving and Osvaldo Sandoval had 5 tackles each and Kyler Ivie snagged 4.

    Hudsen Joslin also helped stop the ball with a sack and a pass defensed.
