Arapahoe continues to search for a second win on the season after Week 8 of high school football. Heritage blistered Abe Lincoln. Littleton took a home loss, and Valor Christian continued it undefeated season.
Cherokee Trail 28, Arapahoe 16
Arapahoe (1-6) took another Centennial League loss at home Oct. 23 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium in Littleton by a 28-16 final.
Davis Gunter scored two touchdowns for the Warriors. His first was in the first quarter on a 39-yard run. His second TD came in the fourth on a 6-yard break.
Cameron Durkin put a kick through the uprights for a 28-yard field goal in the second quarter.
Gunter finished with 139 rushing yards.
Skyview 34, Englewood 12
Englewood scored a pair of late touchdowns but it wasn’t enough in a 34-12 loss at Skyview on Oct. 24.
Skyview’s strong running game proved effective and the Wolverines’ defense kept the Pirates out of the end zone for most of the game.
Quarterback Jacob Lowder got Englewood on the scoreboard with a 48-yard pass to Chris Nunnelly and, later in the final quarter, Lowder connected on a 20-yard pass to Johnny Waltz.
Lowder finished the game 13 for 22 for 202 yards. The loss leaves the Pirates at 0-8 on the season.

Josh Meyers scored two rushing touchdowns, both for 2 yards. Bobby Haynes also punched a touchdown in on a 6-yard rush. Drake Solomon went 8-for-8 on point-after-touchdown kicks.
