Meet Jorge Menchaca, a senior at Weslaco East High School. Now in his fourth year with the Wildcat Regiment, Menchaca is taking on a new leadership role as a Field Captain this season. Beyond band, he serves as the captain of the Wildcat Esports Rocket League team and is also a member of the Valorant team. Additionally, he will be part of the Greenhouse Power Racing team for his engineering class this year.
Throughout his time at Weslaco East, Menchaca has earned numerous accolades. He has participated in Pigskin competitions for the past three years, earning Division 1 ratings alongside his fellow Regiment members. In addition, he received Solo & Ensemble Class 2 medals in both 2022 and 2024.
"My experience with the Wildcat Regiment has been truly exceptional. Being part of this program has defined my high school journey, allowing me to grow both personally and professionally while surrounded by an incredible community of friends. The guidance and mentorship from our directors have instilled in me a strong sense of discipline, leadership, and teamwork—skills that will serve me well beyond high school. Above all, the friendships and connections I have built through the Regiment have made my experience truly unforgettable.
As a Field Captain, I am eager to continue developing my leadership skills, creating lasting memories, and contributing to the success of our program. One of my most cherished moments was winning first place at the championships during my freshman year indoor winds season with our What’s Trending Now show—an achievement that will always hold a special place in my heart."
"Attention to detail is essential—every piece of information shared during practice holds significance. Staying informed ensures you are always prepared and avoid missing important deadlines or required items.
I highly encourage students to join the Wildcat Regiment, as it offers a unique opportunity to stay active, push personal limits, and build lifelong friendships. Beyond musicianship, the program provides unforgettable experiences, including travel, performances, and team-building opportunities. There is never a dull moment in the Wildcat Regiment, as there is always something to strive for and look forward to."
"The Wildcat Regiment is a family built on hard work, trust, and lifelong friendships."
