KINGWOOD – The Dayton Broncos have been rolling this season on the hardwood, and they matched up for a big district contest last Friday against Kingwood Park.
PORT NECHES – It was an early Friday morning for soccer as the Dayton Broncos took part in the PNG Kickoff Classic against the Bridge City Cardinals. The start time might have been a little early for the Broncos as they dropped a 3-1 decision to the Cardinals. Dayton started slow and saw Bridge City get a score just 8 minutes into the contest to move in front 1-0. The Broncos got a couple of good looks just before the first half ended, as Ricardo Navarro and Ian Vazquez had strikes on goal. In the second half, it was Dayton that started as the aggressor with Ricardo Navarro and Yahel Castro both taking shots on goal and a header by Jonathan Vargas that was just wide of the goal in the 11th minute. The Cardinals then scored in the 18th minute to take a 2-0 lead. In the 27th minute, the Broncos cut the deficit in half as Alejandro Sanchez scored with the assist going to Fernando Jara and the Broncos were within 2-1. A couple of minutes later, Bridge City put the game away with a breakaway goal and a 3-1 advantage. Dayton will play at the Humble ISD Classic this weekend.

Here are five things happening around your state: 1. Bill filing for the 89th Legislative Session begins Nov. 12 marked the first day legislators could file bills for the 89th Legislature – kicking off the beginning of the next session. Since bill filing opened, members have already filed over 2,000 bills between the House and Senate. Typically, over the course of the session members will file upwards of 7,500 bills. While most of those will not pass, we will have an opportunity to read and evaluate many of them. The 89th Legislative Session officially begins on Tuesday, Jan. 14 at noon. Members can file bills until the 60th day of the session, March 14. After that date, members can only work on bills that have already been filed. The regular legislative session lasts 140 days and will conclude on Monday, June 2. I look forward to representing Senate District 3 once again this session and encourage constituents to reach out to my office if they have an interest in any legislation coming before the Legislature.
