Picks: Cimarron to continue its mastery of Las Vegas
Thursday, Sept. 14, 2000 | 9:53 a.m.
Two OT losses and those suddenly red-hot Desert Pines Jaguars contributed to a tough week in what is quickly becoming an unpredictable season. But have no fear: Week three has 11-0 written all over it.
WEEK THREE
