McALLEN, Texas---- The Rio Grande Valley Magic ended training camp on a high note for the season openerand set to battle the Laredo Rattlesnakes for their inaugural game in the Lone Star Football League.

After training camp ended for the Magic, Head Coach Schuyler "Skyler" Anderson commented "I'm excited not only that its game time but our team that we have going into our first game. We look good at every position, but now it's time to see where we are compared to the rest of the league. Our first test is against the Laredo Rattlesnakes, I feel that if Billy Garza can get in rhythm early with his receivers and the line protects him positive results should be expected."

The RGV Magic Kickoff Party was hosted by Bellini 7 Martini Lounge, in McAllen.
