The Monitor’s Andrew McCulloch and Bryan Ramos recap RGV Week 6 action including McAllen Memorial vs. McAllen Rowe and Sharyland Pioneer vs. Mission Veterans. They also break down RGV Week 7 matchups, featuring The Monitor’s Game of the Week between Weslaco High vs. Los Fresnos.

Follow us on Facebook and Twitter @rgvsports.com

The Weslaco High Panthers and Los Fresnos Falcons will clash in The Monitor’s high school football Game of the Week for the right to advance to the Class 6A bi-district playoffs in one of the Rio Grande Valley’s most high-profile grudge matches of the season.

The Panthers, who will enter as the second-place squad in District 32-6A’s west zone, and the Falcons, who finished third in the east zone, were originally scheduled to play each other in both teams’ regular-season finale.

Since both Los Fresnos and Weslaco’s zone seeds were already locked into place, however, the two sides have agreed to make this week’s contest an official 32-6A zone play-in game with the winner advancing to the first round of the state playoffs and the loser ending its season.

The Panthers topped the Falcons 35-28 in a back-and-forth bi-district playoff matchup the last time these two teams met on the field.

Los Fresnos will enter fresh off a cross-zone win against the Harlingen South Hawks and boasts one of the RGV’s top rushing attacks powered by seniors Miles McWhorter (300 yards) and Chris Resendiz (450 yards), the leading rusher in District 32-6A.

Weslaco, meanwhile, brings one of the Valley’s stingiest run defenses into this matchup spearheaded by senior defensive end Alexis Munoz and the versatile linebacker duo of Josh Burket and Jesse Perez.

The Falcons will also get their first look at Panthers’ senior quarterback Rodney Garza, the second-leading passer in 32-6A, and running back Jesse Hernandez in this contest.

Weslaco (2-1, 2-1) and Los Fresnos (2-2, 2-1) will kick off their high-stakes battle Friday at 1 p.m. at Bobby Lackey Stadium in Weslaco.

The Monitor’s Andrew McCulloch and Bryan Ramos recap RGV Week 5 action including Lyford and Raymondville’s playoff wins (7:56) and breakdown RGV Week 6 matchups featuring The Monitor’s Game of the Week between McAllen Memorial and McAllen Rowe (30:41).

Follow us on Facebook and Twitter @rgvsports.

The Monitor’s Game of the Week will stay in McAllen for the first time this season for a titanic tilt between a pair of crosstown rivals with championship implications.

The McAllen Memorial Mustangs and McAllen Rowe Warriors will square off in one of the Rio Grande Valley’s fiercest football rivalries with city bragging rights and a spot in the District 16-5A DI championship game on the line for both teams.

The Mustangs (3-1, 2-0) have played a makeshift schedule through the first month of the season.

Memorial moved to 2-0 in divisional play in District 16-5A DI’s west zone after coming up with huge defensive stands in the waning seconds to top the McHi Bulldogs and the La Joya Palmview Lobos in overtime Saturday. The Mustangs also split a pair of hard-fought, non-district contests against the Harlingen High Cardinals and PSJA North Raiders, two of the Valley’s toughest Class 6A defenses.

Rowe (3-2, 3-0), meanwhile, stumbled out of the gate this season with a pair of back-to-back shootout losses on the road against the Sharyland Pioneer Diamondbacks and Sharyland High Rattlers. But the resilient Warriors have flipped the script since, preparing for and winning three consecutive district games during a 15-day span with wins over McHi, the Brownsville Veterans Chargers and a dominant shutout over Donna High on Saturday.

This matchup pits two of the three District 16-5A DI teams who advanced to the area round of last season’s Class 6A state playoffs. The winner will likely face the third to do so, the Weslaco East Wildcats, in the district championship game with one more regular-season district game remaining for each squad.

Memorial and Rowe also boast two of the Valley’s deepest backfields and secondaries which should keep this contest close throughout. The Mustangs and Warriors will kick off at 7:30 p.m. Friday at McAllen Veterans Memorial Stadium.
