San Antonio Holmes has been a regular preseason exhibition opponent for San Marcos, the two teams scrimmaging against each other in each of the past five years.
This year, though, the Huskies and Rattlers will raise the stakes, playing in an official game that will be marked on their respective overall records. Holmes is coming off its first winless season since 2014 and will be hungry for a victory.
Quarterbacks A.J. Ruiz and Chris Medelez will both return after each saw at least 40 pass attempts in 2019. Ruiz led the team with a 42.7 completion percentage, gained 150 yards through the air and added another 118 yards on the ground on 54 carries, but Medelez did more with his chances, earning a team-high 213 passing yards and two passing touchdowns.
