A win against New Braunfels is three years in the making for San Marcos.
Not only are the two river cities just 20 miles apart, but the two schools were district rivals back in 2019. During now-juniors Kaden Gumbs, Malik Presley, Exavion Harris, Jon Vega and Isaiah DeLeon’s freshman year, the Unicorns swept the Rattlers in two games by a combined score of 135-107. Two years older and a few inches taller, San Marcos exorcised their demons in a 67-50 victory inside the Snake Pit Friday night.
The victory was fueled by a dominant second half in which the Rattler’s went on a 41-22 run to end the game after being down 28-26 at halftime.
