LAS CRUCES — Playing a competitive football game was the first step for Oñate after two lopsided losses to open the season. For 24 minutes on Saturday against Cleveland, Oñate looked to be the better team. But football games are 48 minutes long and the Storm pulled away to knock off the winless Knights 40-15 at the Field of Dreams. "We feel better about it as tough as the first two losses were," said OHS running back Lawrence Sanchez, who gained 143 yards on the ground and hauled in a touchdown pass. "We came out smiling and having fun. Coaches told us to enjoy the high school experience and that is what we were doing in the first half. We beat ourselves in the second half because everyone was trying to do too much." Despite outgaining Cleveland 196-53 in the first half, the Knights (0-3) found themselves down 7-0 at the break.
