He became one of the most trusted officials in the Rio Grande Valley. It’s a high school football officiating career that started in 1979, ran through 2017, and included 706 varsity and games. Buck served in various capacities at Texas State Technical College in Harlingen from 1976 to 2008, including Vice President of Administrative Services and later Associate Vice Chancellor of Administrative Services for the TSTC System. His duties included overseeing $50 million-plus in construction at the school. It was in 1979 at TSTC that a co-worker asked Buck if he would like to start officiating football games. Buck was interested in the opportunity and said yes. The rest is history. The longtime Harlingen resident has been a member of the Valley football officials organization, TASO, since 1979. He officiated an average of 20 varsity games per season for approximately 20 years. He has officiated several high-level Texas high school football playoff games. Throughout his career as a football referee, Buck enjoyed officiating the sub-varsity games on Saturdays as much as the varsity contests on Friday nights. He did that with a desire to help train younger officials who were just starting out and gaining experience on the sub-varsity level, just like he did. Buck is scheduled to receive the Curly Hays Award at this year’s THSCA Convention in July in Houston as the top high school official in the state. It is an award given to only one person annually. 2019 INDUCTION CEREMONY y 9 CONGRATULATIONS Leticia Canales And the Class of 2019 10 x RIO GRANDE VALLEY SPORTS HALL OF FAME LETICIA CANALES Hometown: McAllen, Texas High School: McAllen High School College: Sul Ross University Best Known For: Coaching Basketball The highly successful basketball career of Leticia “Leti” Canales as a player and coach began in the Rio Grande Valley and eventually led her to the Coastal Bend.
