Good afternoon, Pirate Nation. Over the Thanksgiving break, the boys started the 2023-2024 basketball season by going 3-0. The Pirates beat Devine 67-58, Fox Tech 52-40, and YMLA 62-50.
After last year's amazing run to the 3A UIL State Tournament, we have a very young group who are finding ways to win and finish games. This new group of Pirates understands the expectations and culture of playing fast, tough and finding the will to win. I couldn't ask for more. Senior Tristen Guevara has been the unsung hero to our success this year so far, averaging 10 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals per game. He's been able to find ways to come off the bench and hit shots at the right time to take us to victory. Younger brother, Sophomore Chase Guevara, the only returner with experience on the floor, has led the Pirates in scoring, averaging 14 points and 10 rebounds per game. It will be an interesting year to see where this brotherly dual will lead us. The Pirates will play at home today, November 28, 2023 at 7:30 pm vs Jourdanton. Come out and support the boys and girls tonight, starting at 6:15 pm.
A special shout out to Mr. Adam Leyva and Senior student Annabella "Cid" Lopez for putting together our 23-24 season debut video. Please take a minute to watch the full video. Just amazing what Mr. Leyva put together!
