Harlingen, Texas Oct 1, 2026 (Issuewire.com) - The Memorial Middle School Lady Raiders have made school history, capturing district championship titles across all four volleyball teams in Harlingen, Texas. The 8A, 8B, 7A, and 7B teams all finished undefeated, making this a remarkable season for the entire program.
The teams were led by a dedicated coaching staff: Coach Cavazos guided 8A, Coach Martinez led 8B, Coach Lopez coached 7A, and Coach Banda coached 7B.
The 8A team went 7-0, defeating Vernon, Miller Jordan, Resaca, Vela, Los Cuates, Berta Cabaza, and Gutierrez on its way to the title. The championship team is made up of Ariel Rodriguez, Alayna Miranda, Aralena Angulo, Allie Perez, Daniella Barrera, Leslie Caldera, Mariana Donnelly, Jenevieve Ochoa, Yamilet Romero, Aubree Marroquin, and Nayelee Fernandez.
The achievement is especially meaningful for Memorial Middle School volleyball: the school had not claimed a full district championship since 2018. This year, all four Lady Raider teams followed one another to the top, completing an undefeated season and bringing home district titles together. It was a historic year for the players, coaches, school, and Harlingen community.
