Nobody’s on the roof with a megaphone shouting "Playoffs."Nobody should be.Yes, Desert Mountain has played Boudler Creek and North Canyon, not exactly the peak performers of football programs.But a victory is a victory in north Scottsdale, and for a program in complete disarray the past two years, Tony Tabor will take his 2-1 record.Enrollment numbers aren’t great (but getting better). Injuries are starting to mount. The schedule gets enormously tougher.But Friday’s game against Phoenix Central is winnable, as is next week against Phoenix Camelback.Tabor is looking longer term in resurrecting a dormant program, but for this season, it has to be about the present, because Mesa Red Mountain, Phoenix Brophy and Mesa Desert Ridge and Glendale Mountain Ridge are upcoming.Five wins this season isn’t unthinkable, and what a boost it would be for a program which has won a total of six games in the previous three years.
