In a new weekly feature, The Eagle Pass News Gram will highlight one player per week for each of our local Fightin' High School Football Teams, The Silver & Black Attack CC Winn Mavericks who will be taking on the Uvalde Coyotes on the road in Week 1 and The High Flyin' Eagle Pass Eagles who will be at home against the Weslaco East Wildcats. First up for either squad are the starting quarterbacks Ty Chisum and Juan Elizondo. First of all Ty, it's an honor for me to be featuring you as I consider your family to be very close to my family and I due to the lasting friendship my father Sammy Ibarra and your grandfather Frank Chisum had, who both had exceptional careers in the glory days of Eagle Pass football under then head coach Cozel Foster. Your granddad played QB back then and your uncle Rick and your father David also started at the same position so I'll begin by asking who your influences are.
