Why this one matters

This shapes up as a tight nonleague test early in both teams’ schedules. The last time these programs met, Bernalillo edged Highland 20-19 on Aug. 30, 2024 — a one-point thriller that should give both coaches plenty to remember as they prepare for this rematch. Each side enters the contest looking to build momentum; Highland’s next game after this is at Taos (Sept. 5) and Bernalillo heads to Portales (Sept. 5).
