Our next Profile Series subject is not only racking up the yardage in this one of the first 1,000 yard rushers for the Mavs in a while, he's getting media love and recognition across South Texas. Scorebook.com featured him as one of the Top Five Performances in last week's Round I of The Texas State High School Playoffs for his 157 yard, two touchdown game versus Highlands.

Coach Neto Reyes' Eagle Pass Eagles have hit the hardwoods already having traveled to Shaquille O'Neal's old stomping grounds last week to play Cole, O'Connor, and Boerne and now at old Eagle Pass High School to square off with a very talented and experienced Crystal City Javelinas squad that has all five returning starters knocking them off 62-50.
This next player not only shows the balance, intensity and scoring ability of his favorite player Alvin Kamara of The New Orleans Saints, he's got a motor and a sense for the opposing team's goal line.
Our first basketball Profile Series subject is a kid who when attending Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary who was playing Super Rival Liberty, made a last-second half court shot at the buzzer to beat The Eagles by one, a true highlight that was sent to ESPN back in the day. So, this young man is no stranger to pub.

The elite 12-U division had the game of the week when the Eagle Pass Cowboys squared off against The Eagle Pass Panthers on Saturday and the result was not for the faint of heart.
The Man with The Plan Ricardo Garcia, one of the best players in this league, struck first with 8:35 remaining in the first quarter with an incredible 45 yard touchdown run, but then another of the best of the best, Nathan Molina did what he does a mere twenty seconds later with a 52 yard touchdown and the extra point failed to make the score 7-6.
Then Easton Garcia, the Queensryche QB, scored on a six yard touchdown and the Giovanni Gutierrez extra point was good to make it 14-6.
Juan Peralez connected with Jesus Medina on a 35 yard touchdown pass and Dante Huerta’s point after made it 14-13.
An interception by Eli Rodriguez with ten seconds left in the first half ended a potential scoring drive for the Cowboys.
It wasn’t until the fourth quarter that the Panthers hit with a nine yard touchdown blast by Dante Huerta with 9:00 left in the fourth to extend the lead to 19-14.
But a short punt and a horse collar tackle gave the Cowboys new life and Easton Garcia punched it in with :17 left in the game to give them the lead 20-19. The extra point was no good and the Panthers had :17 of life.
Well, after three kickoffs, a 30 yard pass from Peralez to Dueñez sealed the proverbial deal for the Panthers and they were off to the Championship. What a game!

When you think of close games, many times it comes down to a point or two, and the player you will most depend on is your kicker. I had a very detailed conversation with our Player Profile Series subject about this and I've spoken to his coach, Coca Ruiz about this.
