Senior Mario Chavez was the offensive standout of the match for El Paso, as he rushed for 254 yards and 4 touchdowns.

Irvin won against San Elizario two weeks ago with 55 points, and Irvin decided to stick to that point total again. Irvin put a hurting on Jefferson to the tune of 55-10. The match was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point Irvin had established a 35-10 advantage.

Their wins bumped Irvin to 4-1 and El Paso to 3-2. El Paso's offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a Irvin defensive front that amassed four sacks against Jefferson, so we'll see if they are up to the task.
