As we wind down towards District Play, we start to see who the heavy hitters are in the RGV. In the 2025 Texas High School Baseball Season, we have seen two teams who are on a mission to not only bring home a district title and make a deep run in the playoffs, but also cement themselves as the top team in RGV Baseball.
Those two teams, the PSJA Bears and Los Fresnos Falcons, clashed in their final non-district meeting of 2025. Nearly identical seasons, Los Fresnos went into the game with a 14-2 record, while PSJA had a 13-4 record.
Although typically evenly matched, PSJA has had the better of Los Fresnos in the last two meetings. PSJA knocked off LF 4-2 in 2023, then 2-1 in 2024. The Falcons were looking for their first win over PSJA nearly four years, last beating the Bears in the 2021 Bi-district round.
Two evenly matched teams always means we’re either going to have a defensive matchup or an offensive shootout. That proved to the case as the Falcons and Bears were locked on each other. Two scoreless innings went by before the Bears knocked in the first run of the game.
Another scoreless innings went by, then in the fifth, the Bears drove in the second and final run of the night. After that, a slow defensive matchup continued as PSJA would defeat Los Fresnos for the third straight season 2-0.
Now both teams continue to be evenly matched as they head into their respective districts. PSJA is now 14-4, while Los Fresnos is now 14-3. The Bears will begin 31-6A against Edinburg on March 25, while the Falcons begin 32-6A against San Benito March 28.
The Falcons finish Non-District 14-3 and look to carry the momentum as they aim for a fourth consecutive District title.
