The La Feria football team won its second non-conference game defeating Santa Rosa in a shutout match on Friday, Sept. 6.

The Lions scored 63 points against the helpless Warriors.

Quarterback Dorian Hernandez threw five touchdowns, while Avishai Dickerson rushed for three scores.

Coach Oscar Salinas was extremely pleased with the outcome of the Lions first home game.

“You can’t ask for a better way to start off,” he was quoted as saying. “A big win against our rival school. Being 1-0 here is a great start to our season.”

At press time the Lions were scheduled to play a second home non-conference game against the Mercedes Tigers at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 13.
