The exuberant hooting and hollering coming from the Las Vegas Robertson locker room after Saturday's dominant 26-0 win over St. Michael's was as much about a program announcing its return to state prominence as it was about a group of kids turning the page on the past.

The Cardinals dominated every facet of Saturday's game - gaining 217 yards of offense while holding the Horsemen to minus-14 total yards, gaining 12 first downs while allowing two, shutting out the Horsemen for the first time in 54 games and all but securing the District 2AAA runner-up spot.
