A Progreso win at Raymondville Friday will give the Red Ants their first 4-0 start in school history.

Although the team milestone will look good on paper, the win will have far greater meaning. A victory over Raymondville will go a long way in determining if the Red Ants are ready to be competitive.

The 3-0 start is great but two of the those wins came against lowly MMA and St. Joseph. The Week 0 Mission victory will always be remembered at the border town but success will be measured by what the Red Ants do against their Class 3A foes.

I predicted the Red Ants would go 4-6. They should beat Santa Maria next week and have a chance against Lyford the following week. In the end, however, I just don’t see Progreso doing much during district.

I have been wrong before and the Red Ants did beat Mission.

Rowe imroves to 2-0. Mission is now 0-3. Read tomorrow’s Monitor for all the details.

Mission is still struglling. The Warriors defense has really come alive in the second half, limiting the Eagles to just 30 yards during the final two quarters with 7:15 left in the game. Cameron Gatling scored on a 27-yard run. Martin Pena missed the PAT, but Rowe leads 40-14.

Twelve seconds into the third quarter, Rowe QB Enriquez connected with Travis Chafin for a 61-yard TD pass. Warriors lead 34-14.

Warriors have scored 10 in the third to take a 27-14 lead. Less then three minutes into the third Rowe QB Enriquez scored on 14-yard run. Martin Pena hit a 24-yard FG with 3:18 left in the third quarter.
