RENO -- Peoria Centennial, the Arizona high school Class 5-A champion in 2008, overpowered McQueen 51-20 in the fourth annual Sonnenberger Classic Saturday at Mackay Stadium.

McQueen, which went 14-0 to win Nevada's Class 4-A state title last season, could not contain senior halfback Anthony Hughes, who rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries for the Arizona champions.

Centennial has now won 27 consecutive games and is 42-1 in its last 43 starts. McQueen has only one starter back from its championship team that edged Las Vegas Palo Verde 13-12 in the 2008 finale.
