Daniel Forgione helped Bracken with a record rushing day

Bracken Christian ran out of time in loss to Cedar Park Summit last Friday night, 85-72.

The Warriors could not find an answer to the lethal passing and running of the Eagles as BCS’s only stop for the defense was a fumble that was recovered in the 4th quarter and a victory snap to run out the clock.

“Their (Summit’s) number 11 could run, see the field, and throw the ball,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic said. “We ran the ball very well and we stayed in the tight formation the whole game and scored 72 points….but, all is good because the playoffs is a new season.”

Bracken has shown great improvement as this season has transpired in scoring 72 points in the loss that very well could had been a mercy game if played in the first part of this year’s campaign.

The Hawks can’t run faster than the Hounds in loss to Boerne, 35-27.

“We fought and did not give up,” Head Coach Charley Drum said. “We were just walking around after their last score, but then we wanted to leave the football field as a team and went down swinging.”

Canyon Lake started this game a little different as a 37 yard pass play to Austin Brennan opened up an avenue not traveled for CL’s first score.

On when he knew the Hawks would be passing on first down, QB Ben Fulton recalled, “Yesterday during our film session…I think it helps with the pass threat and you can tell that the defense was looking for the run.”

Boerne did answer that score when they had an 8 play drive for 82 yards for their response. This drive was helped by a Hawk offsides on a 4th down play that led to a 21 yard run on the next play by QB Brooks Klutts .

Hawks Win District in beating Boerne, 20-12    www.mjrphotog.com

Another year another District Championship for the Mountain Valley 8th A team as they swept through their middle school years with two top of the heap years on the gridiron in stopping Boerne, 20-12.

“Our kids fought hard to pull out a win that sealed the district championship,” Head Coach Brandon Pawelek. “We had to overcome some costly penalties but we were able to score and come up with stops when we needed to.”

Mountain Valley found themselves down in the third quarter after a Boerne opening score to start the second half.

Then a methodical 11 play drive covering 64 yards would allow MV to take the lead and eventually the game in grand fashion.

Mountain Valley’s 8th Grade B football team came from a one win team last year to winning a District Champion after shutting out Boerne, 16-0.

“Our B-team played great on both sides of the ball,” Head Coach Raymond Amaro said. “It is difficult to beat a good team twice, but our boys worked hard all week in practice and were ready.”

It was all about the defense on Thursday as MVMS 8B team started this day giving up 4 yards on the Greyhounds first drive then would block their punt.

That would allow the Hawks with a 30 yard drive as this drive was highlighted after a Colton Eilers 21 yard run giving MV a first down on Boerne’s 5 yard line.

Caimen McDonough and Joseph Ruiz ready for next year

Canyon Lake Junior Varsity lost their last game of the season but still claimed the District 14-4A Championship.

“I am proud of these young man,” Head JV Coach John Barthels stated. “This year overall was memorable and this was a great group of boys and I look forward to seeing them in the future.”

Boerne came back in the fourth quarter to steal the game from the Hawks as CLJV could not convert a fourth down play deep in Boerne territory, giving the Greyhounds one more chance to score.

The Dogs took advantage and drove 85 yards with the last play covering 53 yards on a catch and run and a lead that would stand, 27-26.

CLJV finished with 356 yards for this night and more than doubled the time of possession over Boerne but it would become a heart breaking loss to a very good passing club.

CL Lake Hawks come down with ‘Fumbleitis’ in loss to Taylor on Saturday afternoon, 31-28.

Senior Matt Adams is not finished yet.

“Defensively we did real well,” Head Coach Charley Drum started. “We have had problems this year (with fumbles) and I hated this for our seniors.”

Coach Drum continued, “They took care of the ball and we gave a talented team field position all game with our fumbles.”

The Hawks could not stand prosperity as they went bankrupt in giveaways by coughing up 5 lost fumbles in this winnable contest.

Taylor jumped out to a quick 9 point lead before Canyon Lake responded with 4 consecutive touchdown drives and what many thought was a comfortable halftime lead, 28-9.

Head Coach Hosea Stredic adresses Warriors 3 months ago as BCS enters last regular season game this week.

Bracken Christian wins big over rival Kerrville OLH, 54-0 on the road last Friday night.

“We came out and took care of business,” Head Coach Hosea Stredic commented. “We played a full game and played the way we should have played.”

“In a game like this, it was important to get all the players on the field,” Coach Stredic stressed.

The Warriors were on their game after scoring 40 points in that first quarter which had not been done since Eli Achilles was calling plays for Bracken.
