Bryan Ramos | Staff WriterSAN JUAN — A third-round playoff matchup between Austin Westlake and PSJA High might have seemed one-sided on paper. Not to those inside the Bears’ baseball locker room, though. PSJA (31-3-1) has been one of the state’s best teams and played like it all year. The Bears, who are ranked No. 7 in the latest THSBCA top 10 poll, now find themselves in the regional final round of the playoffs for the first time in program history.

BROWNSVILLE — San Benito alumnus and UTRGV redshirt freshman guard Frank Medina is the smallest lineman on the Vaqueros roster. Listed at 5 feet 9 inches and 318 pounds, Medina knows he has to work twice as hard as others. Since making the team as a walk-on at an open tryout last August, he’s climbed his way up the ladder in the UTRGV offensive line room. “I know I’m fired up every day. I’m the shortest one on the offensive line so I know I got to work harder than everybody,” Medina said.

Now, nearly three years later, four Sinton alumni are set to have a mini-high school reunion on that same field when UTRGV (24-10) visits No. 1 Texas (29-5) at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Disch-Falk, and two are set for a family reunion.
Stepping into the secondary with UTRGV defensive backs

2 months ago | rgvsports.com | Bryan Ramos

EDINBURG — As offenses continue to become more pass-centric, the roles, responsibility and high-risk, high-reward nature at the defensive back position has become increasingly important. One misstep or miscommunication and the offense is celebrating six in the end zone. At the same time, lock down a receiver in man-to-man or zone coverage, force a stop or create a momentum-swinging turnover in the secondary and it’s the defense doing the celebrating after successfully doing its job.

EDINBURG — A wise philosopher once said, “Anything for Selenas”, and for UTRGV baseball on Saturday, that meant climbing out of an early hole to rally past Stephen F. Austin for a 9-7 win on Selena Night in front of a record-breaking crowd of 6,537 at UTRGV Baseball Stadium in Edinburg. “Our offense came right back at them after giving up four and got us right back in the game. Harrison Thayer ran a long game and really saved our bullpen for tomorrow,” UTRGV head coach Derek Matlock said.
