High school football Week 6 scores & highlights
Week 6 of the high school football season is here, the halfway point of the season for some teams. There’s a full slate in the Desert Valley League, with all 8 teams in action. Most of the Desert Empire League teams are on a bye this week.
Game of the Week
Desert Hot Springs (1-4) – 19 @ Cathedral City (3-2) -33
The Cathedral City Lions hosted the Desert Hot Springs Golden Eagles in week 2 of the DVL.
The Lions came in to the game on a two-game winning streak, which came after a 24-game losing streak. Last week, the Lions were able to outlast the Indio Rajahs 20-14. Meanwhile, the Golden Eagles are fresh from their first win of the year, a 34-0 victory over the Desert Mirage Rams. The win placed both teams on top of the DVL standings.
The Lions came out on top with a strong showing by the team in front of a crowd excited to see them play ball. They sit atop the DVL along with Yucca Valley. Next week they take on the Coachella Valley Arabs, who are coming of a big 70 to 6 win over Twentynine Palms. The Golden Eagles will look to bounce back against that very same Twentynine Palms squad.
