Pueblo Central football snapped a 15-game losing streak on Saturday.
Nico Martin ran for three touchdowns as Pueblo Central beat Glenwood Springs 27-17.
The Wildcats grabbed a 21-7 lead in the second half, but the Demons were able to battle back and pull to within four points thanks to a 30-yard field goal.
But just as he had been the hero on offense all day, Martin shut down any hopes that Glenwood had of making a full comeback as he picked off a pass late in the fourth quarter to seal the win.
And just like that our boys get their first W in 15 games…with plenty more on the way #OA ⚪️🔵 pic.twitter.com/njnraBscy9
