Pacheco celebrated the first varsity win in the program's history on Friday night with a 33-14 win over fellow first-year school Sierra Pacific in Hanford.
The Panthers racked up 353 yards on the ground. Cruz Zamora finished with 148 yards rushing and a touchdown.
Paul Parks added 126 yards on the ground and a score.
Adam Perez chipped in with four catches for 85 yards and a touchdown.
"I think it was exciting, but there was also a sense of relief," said Pacheco coach David Snapp.
The Panthers had been outscored 101-18 in their first two games.
"I think our guys were wondering if they were doing the things they needed to be successful," Snapp said.
"I don't think that this 'first varsity win ever thing' has sunk in yet."
