Jmaury Davis grabbed five tackles, two sacks, and a caused fumble and Antwan Bassett had three tackles and one interception. Lamarcus Peniger also picked off two Bovina passes in the game.
“I thought our defense played great,” head coach Clint Conkin said. “We had several kids making plays all night on defense.”
