IN HIS WORDS….
Cochise Head Coach Jerry Carrillo
"We did a great job of taking the lead early and keeping it all game long. Our guys shared the ball on offense all night as we had over 100 points and 6 guys in double figures. We love this team, as many people were counting us out earlier in the season, but we have won 7 of our last 9 games, our guys want to compete for an NJCAA Region I title. "
