The Holy Cross Knights open their season against the Antonian Apaches in the first game of the 2023 KSAT Pigskin Classic, on Friday, Aug. 25, at the Alamodome.
Thousands will watch the Knights play the Apaches, Southside take on Somerset, Jefferson face Uvalde and O’Connor versus Brandeis over the fun-filled two-day event.
Quarterback Gibby Alvarado returns for his third year as the starter after he passed for 1,711 yards and 20 touchdowns a year ago. He’ll also have a quality offensive line and defense flanking him, including two all-state players in Josue Lerma and Thomas Estevez, who had 72 tackles a year ago. “How about honored, privileged? I mean there are so many words that come to mind for us. Personally, when you’re a coach, this is kind of a dream. You get your kids to this environment, this kind of venue, it’s going to help us later on,” Harrison said.“That’s going to be tough, hard-nosed kids that play very, very, very, disciplined, very aggressive, and we’re going to get after it. Our kids play hard. And that’s been the mantra of Holy Cross for a very long time.
“First of all, playing a team like Antonian, holy cow, a very good football team. They’re going to make us better, playing in this venue is going to make us better. And that’s really what we’re talking about, is what happens with us being in this type of environment early. It’s going to make us a better football team. We’re extremely excited about it,” he said.
