This year’s Senior Night at Durango was a little more special than ones in recent years.

“It was probably the first Senior Night in a long time at Durango with kids that actually won,” Durango coach Gary Maki said.

Durango completed its turnaround regular season with a 48-20 victory against Bonanza to improve to 8-2 for the season.

The Trailblazers relied on its starting unit to distance it from the Bengals early before letting the backups finish it off.

Durango will face Cimarron-Memorial in the first round of the playoffs. Earlier in the season, Cimarron beat Durango 54-7, but Maki is ready for another shot.

“If we come out and play the way we can, then we’ll be alright,” Maki said.
