The Lionettes will kick off district play on January 7th on the road against Rio Hondo then have their district home opener against Raymondville on January 11th. They will then play Grulla, Hidalgo, and Port Isabel to wrap up the first half of district play. January 25th the Lionettes kick off the second half against Rio Hondo. February opens up with the Lionettes taking on Grulla on the 1st, then Port Isabel on the 7th.
