(Brownsville, Texas)-Brownsville Pace Vikings head football coach Daniel Pardo will lead his team against the McAllen Nikki Rowe Warriors on Thursday night at Sams Stadium with plenty on the line. Both teams are 2-1, 1-0 in District 16-5A DI with the winner moving into first place in this ten-team district. “It’s going to be a tough season with ten teams playing for four playoff spots,” says Pardo. “We have some very good teams in our district.”

McAllen Nikki Rowe head football coach, Robert Flores agrees with Pardo. “Every game counts and I’m just excited to get this season started,” said Flores. “Last year we made the playoffs during COVID-19 and we hope to finish the season in 2021.”

So far, both teams are doing fairly well. As a matter of fact, both teams are doing pretty darn good. The Warriors will feature the No.1 passing quarterback in the Rio Grande Valley. Senior Mateo Llanas leads the Rio Grande Valley amongst passing quarterbacks with 798 yards and 11 touchdowns. His WRs are Nelson Ramirez (18 catches 265 yards), Jorge Melnedez (8 catches 120 yards), and Jorge Diaz (10 catches 186 yards). The Warriors average 287.0 yards per night in passing. On the ground, the Warriors will add another 96.7 yards. In total, the Warriors average 383.7 yards on offense. The Warriors lost to San Benito (3-0) in Week One 20-13 but enjoyed wins against District 16-5A Division One opponents La Joya Palmview (1-2) and Brownsville Lopez (0-3)

The Pace Vikings will have to find a way to stop the Warriors passing attack. To date, the Vikings have recorded 188 tackles with eight quarterback sacks against a loss to Sharyland (2-1), followed by district wins over Brownsville Lopez and Brownsville Porter (1-2). This game will be a test for both teams on Thursday night. The Pace Vikings are a running team. Can the Warriors stop a running attack? RB Ivan Gonzales leads the Vikings with 325 yards on 25 carries and six TDs. RB Brandon Navarez and RB Valient Rodriguez will also see carries on Thursday night.
