Redemption Thursday: Region semifinals feature four teams out to avenge earlier defeats
Las Vegas High football coach James Thurman has stressed each week for his players to play a faceless opponent on Friday nights. Instead of worrying about the opposition ? whether weak or strong ? on the other side of the field, Thurman tells his players the first step to victory is executing their game plan successfully. On most Fridays in Las Vegas? weak Northeast Division, the faceless opponent strategy is not overlooking a struggling opponent. But Thursday in the Sunset Regional semifinals, the Wildcats will face a tall order in beating host Liberty (9-1). Not only did the defending Sunrise champion Patriots defeat Las Vegas in last year?s title game, they physically manhandled and dominated for virtually the entire night. The faceless opponent strategy might be a good idea for the other underdog teams in this week?s semifinals.
