District 32-4A has officially kicked off, and the Lions look to make a statement as district play is underway.
The Lions opened up their District campaign in 2022 with a matchup against the Grulla Gators. What started off as a close knit battle, both teams looked to take control early on. However, La Feria seemed to have an early foothold of the matchup as great offense and defense by the Lions cemented the outcome as they captured the win over Grulla 42 to 33.
On Tuesday, La Feria hosted the Hidalgo Pirates and looked to remain undefeated in 32-4A play. From the start, the Pirates took control as Hidalgo managed to keep the Lions’ suppressed on offense and defense. A late offensive attack by La Feria was quickly suppressed as the Pirates held on to defeat the Lions 43 to 32.
Now 1-1 in district, the Lions will travel to Port Isabel to take on the Tarpons who are currently 2-0 and are the top team to defeat in district 32-4A. Following Port Isabel, the Lions will host Rio Hondo on January 25 before taking on Raymondville to wrap up January’s action. La Feria takes on La Grulla on February 1st to begin round two of district play.
With a strong team, The Lions are on a mission to punch their ticket to the postseason and even potentially capture District Gold. After a tough non-district schedule, the Lions are no doubt prepared for what the remainder of 32-4A throws at them.
