A.D. Ibarra
-San Antonio &
Laredo, TX
Both of our local teams faced formidable competition in their Week 3 matchups as the Eagle Pass Eagles traveled to San Antonio to take on the Alamo Heights Mules and the CC Winn Mavericks were in Laredo to face the Nixon Mustangs.
The Eagles were able to regain their offensive prowess, scoring twice on the Mules in a 31-12 game at Alamo Heights High School.
QB Ty Chisum scored once on a 25 yard run up the middle weaving his way through the Mule defense which was relentless and very quick.
Chisum connected with Sergio Morales on the other score when after scrambling in an attempt to evade the Alamo Heights rush, he found a streaking Morales, hitting him in stride for a 35 yard TD.
The CC Winn Mavericks also took to the air as Juan Elizondo showed he could throw the ball around the yard as well, however Mav receivers had trouble pulling it in on several occasions as they fell to the Nixon Mustangs 17-0.
The MAverick defense did all they could to keep the game close forcing several key turnovers, but their defense, who shut out Eagle Pass in Week 2 recorded their second on this night.
