Cibola QB Elijah Moore Impresses in First Season
Cibola Cougars quarterback Elijah Moore threw for 2,100 yards and 17 touchdowns in his first season in New Mexico, guiding the 6A team to a 7-3 record. The Class of 2027 signal-caller transferred from a neighboring state, but quickly earned the starting role. Moore's experience in a high-powered offense has given him a unique set of skills, allowing him to read defenses and make precision throws. His ability to extend plays with his feet has also drawn praise from coaches. As the Cougars prepare for the upcoming season, scouts are looking for Moore to build on his impressive debut. They'll be watching to see if he can maintain his accuracy and decision-making under pressure, as well as his ability to lead his team to victories in the competitive 6A classification. Moore's growth and development will be crucial to Cibola's success in 2026.
