The mighty C.C. Winn Mavericks under the direction of head football coach Eric Villasenor will hit the road this coming Friday, September 27, 2019 with a trip to Laredo, Texas to begin their quest for the 2019 District 14-5A Division I title by tangling with the always tough Laredo Martin Tigers in a 7:30 PM district opening gridiron contest at Shirley Field. Both teams will venture into this game sporting identical overall season records of 2 wins and 2 losses.
The home standing Laredo Martin Tigers are under the leadership of the former C.C. Winn Mavericks head football coach David Charles. The Tigers offense will feature Gerardo Cham #1 as the starting quarterback, joining him in the backfield will be Jose Castaneda #22 a veteran small but very explosive tailback, Octavio Alcorta #30 as the fullback a very good blocker that will lead you to the play and the highly talented Dean Blondmonville #2 who will get the ball on toss sweeps and loves to run outside. He is the most dangerous athlete for the Tigers that must be accounted for at all times and must be contained. The wide receiver will be Juan Lara #10 a very explosive receiver after he catches the ball and has great hands.
The Tigers offensive line will be comprised by Leroy Gutierrez #72 as the tackle over, #77 at right tackle (name not on roster), Emilio Leyva #60 at right guard, Juan Valadez #62 as the center, Javier Amador # 64 as the left guard and Marcus Zavala #66 as the left tackle.
The visiting C.C. Winn Mavericks will counter with their new look offensive scheme with Jose Padilla as the starting signal caller and Ethan Johnston as the featured premier running back in their power ground oriented attack. When the Mavericks take to the airway the Mavericks swift and sure handed receiving corps will feature Joe Garza, Ernesto Vasquez, Michael Olivo, Mathew De Alba, Donato Garza and Armando Yebra ready to haul in the airmail and take it to pay dirt. The Mavericks big and strong offensive line comprised of Jaime Rodriguez, Adrian Munoz, Daniel Ruiz, Miguel Nino, Juan Guerra and tight end Carlos A. Soto will need to dominate the line of scrimmage just like they did this past week to turn their potent power running game loose into the secondary enroute to the end zone..
Defensively the Mavericks proud, quick pursuing and hard hitting defense with Axel Rodriguez, Jose Hinojosa, Alejandro Ontiveros, and Isaias Flores manning the all important front line will be armed and focused to hold the Tigers ground game in check. The Mavericks talented line backing corps of leading tackler Jared Roiz, Alex Chris Garcia, Noe Castillon as well as Michael Farris and Lee Roy Alvarez are primed to inflict their punishing tackles. The Mavericks defensive secondary will be manned by Gilberto Vasquez, Argenis Gonzalez, Andrew Vasquez and Eric Sanchez.

Winn Mavericks varsity football team the very best of luck in your district opener against the Laredo Martin Tigers and invite the entire famed Maverick Nation as well as the entire community of Eagle Pass, Texas to make the trip to Shirley Field in Laredo, Texas this coming Friday night and support the mighty C.C.
