WIN AS ONE! Newcomb High School Skyhawks

March 19, 2019

The Skyhawks are Soaring

Newcomb High School in New Mexico is part of the Central Consolidated School district in the four corners region of New Mexico. Through the district’s commitment to improving facilities for students and athletes, all three high schools and three middle schools were introduced to the BFS Total Program and equipped with new, highly functional weight rooms. Newcomb High School is the smallest high school in the district but the Skyhawks are proving to have unrivaled heart and character.

In the Summer and Fall of 2018 Newcomb Skyhawks football team dedicated themselves to taking advantage of their new facilities and programs by bringing a real “Be An 11” attitude to the new season. These kids had the unswerving support of the entire faculty including coaches Ronnie Armenta, Sean Hayes, Tye Hayes, and Bill McLaughlin. But the Skyhawk community doesn’t stop with just football - Head Coach Eric Stovall credits the contribution of Athletic Director Dominique Richardson, Doctor Deborah Waters, our athletic trainer, Matt Vasquez, and the school staff, teachers and community. WIN AS ONE is the Skyhawk mantra.

And win they did - setting multiple school records and firsts along the way.

*Quarterfinalist fall of 2018 - overall 10 wins 2 losses team record!

*First 10 Win season in school history

*First home playoff win against Lordsburg (1st round-2018), in school history - final score 56-20
