A QUARTET of La Marque High School football players received an added Christmas gift courtesy of an invite to play in the Texas High School All-Star Game in San Antonio on January 12. The game, which will be played at SouthSan Stadium at 3:00pm, is sponsored by ShowCase Athletics. The players were selected to participate by a statewide selection committee that pared the list down to the final 100. Quarterback Kobe Gatson, linebacker Jeremiah Taylor, offensive lineman Darius Saldana and running back/linebacker Norvan Saldana were chosen by the committee. All four were selected to the District 11-4A-2 second team after helping the Cougars overcome an 0-6 start to make the postseason, where they lost in the bi-district round to Bellville. The four will spend the week in San Antonio, where they will have the chance to participate in a variety of events in between practice sessions. The players will have an opportunity to be scouted by a host of college scouts throughout the nation that will be in attendance for the game.
