Andrew Owen stood in front of his Hope Christian football teammates at the north end of Richard A. Harper Stadium and verbalized his thoughts.
“This,” he said in the aftermath of the Huskies’ 14-7 road victory Saturday afternoon at Albuquerque Academy, “is one of the most important games of my life.”
Prep football returned to the metro area for the first time in 15-plus months with this meeting of two private schools located less than three miles apart. About 200 fans were in attendance for this Week 1 matchup.
