Mustang has been tested

Playing in 6A-1 has afforded Mustang with plenty of challenges this year. The Broncos survived a tough game with Santa Fe earlier this year, giving them the upper hand in the district title race. Their win over pre-season No. 1 Norman North was a gut wrenching 30-29 squeaker that came down to a blocked extra point.

All of this should help the Broncos when they reach the playoffs.

“We’ve been tested a lot this year because of our district,” Mustang coach Ty Prestidge said. “Some of those games have been close, but it gives us experience in winning close games and that’s something that can only help us down the road when we get into the playoffs where every game has the potential of being close.”
