Chaparral football head coach Don Willis talks with players after Chaparral defeated Eldorado 32- 18 in a high school football game at Chaparral High School Friday, Sept. 22, 2023.

Dishon Lewis rushed for a pair of touchdowns in the first quarter tonight for the Chaparral High football team in a 18-0 playoff victory over visiting Del Sol.

Keimaria Cooley threw a 46-yard touchdown to Ioane Tauiliili for the Cowboys’ other points.

“We had a great start in going down on the first two drives and scoring,” coach Don Willis said. “But from there we just kind of stopped finishing drives.”

Chaparral gets a rematch with Canyon Springs in the next round. Canyon Springs rallied in the fourth quarter to win the regular season meeting between the schools.

“It was a good battle between us,” Willis said of the matchup with Canyon Springs.
