Mountain Pointe has to get some continuity going on offense with its running game. The line and running backs have been out sync the last two weeks.
I haven't seen DV play since Week 1 so its hard to say anything about them other than the fact that the team still isnt here with 8:32 before kickoff.
.....
One thing of note, there is no sign of Desert Vista yet. Maybe the Thunder are doing their pre-game run through at the home field since they are just 4 miles away.

Hello there from the Ahwatukee Bowl.
The first sign that this is a good rivalry - there are 12 police officers on hand. Generally speaking if there is only six, the rivalry is not much. Seven to 10 cops and you have some sizzle.
But once you get more than 10 there is definitely a some special going on.
....
Here at AFN we thought we'd try something new - a live blog from certain events.
Tonight it is Ahwatukee Bowl.
The article will be updated regularly as the game happens. The freshest take will be at the top.
I hope to go live soon after 6 p.m.
Feel free to log in to the site and comment along.
Enjoy.
