Upper-Valley Football Roundup: Bears win big against Javelinas

The PSJA High Bears bounced back from a two-point loss in their season opener in a big way by defeating crosstown rival PSJA Southwest 34-3 in a non-district contest at PSJA Stadium in Pharr. The Bears scored 21 first half points and never looked back.

“Our defense played well for the second week in a row. They kept us in the ball game and had a lot of three-and-outs and it allowed our offense to go to work early,” PSJA High head coach Lupe Rodriguez said.

Senior linebacker Oscar Tolentino got in on the scoring-fun by returning a fumble for six to push the Bears further ahead.

PSJA High moves onto its bye week before opening District 31-6A play on Sept. 17 on the road against La Joya Juarez-Lincoln.

“We have a lot of athletes that were dinged up so we’re going to heal a bit, take a step back and re-emphasize the basics and hopefully freshen up for our district run,” Rodriguez said.

DISTRICT 16-5A DI

WESLACO EAST 24, DONNA HIGH 0: At Weslaco, receiver Alex Martinez hauled in a pair of touchdowns, while running back Jay Vasquez added one on the ground to lead the Wildcats the victory.

The defense dominated the game, forcing a pair of turnovers, including an interception by Rolando Ramos, while holding the Redskins to less than 150 yards of total offense.

Next up, the Wildcats (1-0, 1-0) take on the Brownsville Veterans (1-1, 1-0) at Sams Memorial Stadium in Brownsville.

McALLEN ROWE 43, LA JOYA PALMVIEW 20: At La Joya, the Warriors used a 21-point first half to cruise to victory in their District 16-5A DI opener.

The Warriors (1-1, 1-0) will look to build off their victory, hosting the Brownsville Lopez Lobos (0-2, 0-2) at McAllen Veterans Memorial Stadium in McAllen in Week 3.

Thursday’s Games

RIO GRANDE CITY 34, LAREDO LBJ 20: At Laredo, the Rattlers’ Victor Cardenas rushed for 205 yards and two touchdowns, while CJ Garcia added 123 rushing yards and one touchdown, as RGC racked up 400 yards on the ground on their way to victory.

Up next, Rio Grande City (2-0, 0-0) hits the road, taking on the Hidalgo Pirates (1-1, 0-0) Friday at Bill Pate Stadium in Hidalgo.

Mission High’s Briseno named The Monitor’s Player of the Week

Mission High senior safety Luis Briseño is The Monitor’s Player of the Week after delivering a lights-out defensive performance during the Eagles’ 13-12 Week 1 win over crosstown rival Mission Veterans last Thursday in Hidalgo.

Briseño came away with three key interceptions to lead the Eagles’ defense, which limited the Patriots to two touchdowns. Each interception swung the rivalry game’s momentum in Mission High’s favor. He also tallied four tackles and contributed on the offensive end with two receptions for 44 yards.

Next for Briseño and the Eagles is another non-district matchup against Weslaco High (0-0, 0-0) at 7 p.m. Thursday at Bill Pate Stadium in Hidalgo.

The Edinburg Vela SaberCats (1-0, 0-0) held firm at No. 1 in the latest RGVSports.com Top 10 Poll after a dominant 42-6 win over last week’s No. 4 team McAllen Memorial. Vela received all six first-place votes from The Monitor, Valley Morning Star and The Brownsville Herald sports staff. The SaberCats are set for a Week 2 showdown against Harlingen High in The Monitor’s Game of the Week.

Meanwhile, the Mercedes Tigers (1-0, 0-0) remain at No. 2 after proving they’re deserving of their spot by defeating Brownsville Hanna 42-14 last week on the road. The Tigers will look to stay hot as they face a high-scoring Edinburg North team in Week 2.

Harlingen High (1-0, 0-0) stays at No. 3 after the Cardinals cruised past Laredo United South 34-10 in their season-opener last week. The Cardinals are set for a blockbuster Week 2 matchup as they take on No. 1 Edinburg Vela at 7 p.m. Thursday in Edinburg.

No. 4 PSJA North (1-0, 0-0) dropped from No. 5 after securing an overtime victory over Brownsville Rivera in Week 1. The Raiders are scheduled to host Edcouch-Elsa for a non-district game at 7 p.m. Thursday.

The Mission High Eagles (1-0, 0-0) flew up two spots from No. 7 last week to No. 5 this week after winning a defensive battle against rival Mission Veterans 13-12. The Eagles are set to square off against Weslaco High in another non-district contest in Week 2.

Weslaco East remains at No. 6 after its season opener against rival Weslaco High was canceled due to safety precautions, keeping the Wildcats on the sideline an extra week. East is scheduled to open District 16-5A DI play this week at home against Donna High.

McAllen Memorial (0-1, 0-0) tumbled from No. 4 to No. 7 after suffering a 40-6 loss at the hands of No. 1 Edinburg Vela. The Mustangs have no time to worry about Week 1, however, as they’re headed into another Top 10 matchup in Week 2.

McAllen High (1-0, 0-0) defeated Edinburg High 14-6 in a defensive slugfest in Edinburg last Friday, which keeps the Bulldogs at the No. 8 spot. Next for McHi is a crosstown rivalry game against the No. 7 Memorial Mustangs.

Lyford and San Benito broke into the top 10 after not being ranked a week ago.

No. 9 La Feria (1-0, 0-0) pulled off an impressive 44-26 victory over Raymondville in its season-opener to pick up some votes. The Lions will see a step up in competition as they face Class 6A’s La Joya High on Friday at home.

The Greyhounds (1-0, 0-0) round out the top 10 poll after taking down McAllen Rowe 20-13 last week in a comeback effort. San Benito hosts Mission Veterans on Friday.
