STAYING HOME: Donna spoils McAllen Memorial's playoff plans

DONNA — Ivan Estrada kept shaking his head.

“I can’t believe it,” Donna’s junior defensive back said after his team’s stunning 24-21 come-from-behind win Friday night during The Monitor’s Game of the Week at Bennie La Prade Stadium.

Estrada picked off Memorial quarterback Matthew Kaufmann, who threw an uncharacteristic four interceptions in the game, with 55 seconds left, setting up a game-winning 27-yard field goal as the clock expired by Fernando Sanchez.


McHi, Donna battle in 30-5A tilt

McALLEN — If McAllen High loses to Donna at 7 tonight at McAllen Veterans Memorial Stadium, the Bulldogs would be in a position where they would have to win three of their last four games to be considered for the playoffs.


In only a way Bulldogs coach Tony Harris can respond to the concern he said, “We plan on winning three of our last four games, anyway.”


Yes, it is early in district but there are only five district games remaining and any loss would push a team already with a setback further in the corner.


Yanez, Donna rally to defeat upset-minded McAllen Rowe

DONNA — Donna quarterback Alahn Yanez passed for 277 yards and accounted for three touchdowns to help lead the Redskins’ rally past McAllen Rowe 30-20 in District 30-5A action Friday at Bennie La Prade Stadium.

The game was delayed nearly an hour because of lightning in the area.

The Redskins (4-1 overall, 2-0 district) fought back from a two-touchdown deficit with three scores — including two on passes by Yanez — in the second quarter.
