Trinidad Miners face Raton Tigers amid mixed results
Trinidad hosted Raton on Jan. 16; official tickets and NFHS Network streaming were offered. Recent losses to Center shaped both teams' short-term outlook.
The Trinidad Miners and Raton Tigers met on Jan. 16 in a matchup that drew local attention as both programs sought consistency after a rocky stretch. Official tickets were made available for fans planning to attend, and viewing options included NFHS Network streaming when available, allowing supporters across Las Animas County to follow the games.
Coming into the Jan. 16 matchup, both Trinidad squads were coping with defeats at the hands of Center on Jan. 15. The Trinidad boys fell 61-39, a loss that left the Miners searching for offensive rhythm and defensive answers. The Trinidad girls were also handed a setback by Center, losing 27-19 the same night. Those results framed pregame conversations about adjustments in rotation, defensive focus and how coaches would regroup ahead of the Raton games.
The girls program found an immediate response the following day, posting a 45-19 win over Raton on Jan. 17. That rebound victory provided tangible momentum for Trinidad’s girls and offered a boost to community morale after the consecutive losses the week prior. For parents, students and alumni tracking the season, that turnaround underscored the volatility of midseason play and the importance of supporting home teams through swings in form.
For fans planning attendance, the availability of official tickets and the potential for NFHS Network streaming mattered for both access and safety. Ticket sales and remote viewing options have become standard for county high school athletics, shaping how families and alumni engage with games when travel or capacity are limiting factors. Local boosters and school administrators rely on clear ticketing and streaming arrangements to ensure predictable attendance and to maximize community participation.
The Jan. 16 matchup and the follow-up results illustrate two practical takeaways for Las Animas County sports followers: game outcomes can shift quickly from one day to the next, and reliable access to tickets and streams remains central to fan engagement. Coaches will now use these results to set priorities in practice and lineup decisions heading into the rest of the winter schedule.
What this means for readers is straightforward: check official school channels for ticket sales and NFHS Network availability for upcoming contests, and follow both Trinidad programs as they aim to translate short-term lessons into steadier results for the stretch run of the season.
