Bracken Christian Championship Ring

The Bracken Christian 6-Man Championship season was full of broken records. The season had many memorable moments and the list below are some of the records tabulated by the ReSporter.

Please note the records are sketchy for the first three years, and many records in passing in those years are not noted.

However, you would not be far off in guessing that the chance of the vast majority of the first year’s feats would not be in the same area code from this past season.

Read and enjoy the accomplishments and get ready for another chance starting this August to rewrite some of the records that are mentioned below.

Zach Henshaw and Grady Achillies

The ReSporter continues part two on the Dynamic Duo.

Zach Henshaw and Grady Achilles are the two running backs for Canyon Lake and Bracken Christian respectfully.

The two backs have a decorated career and are now on their final chapter in the High School arena. Both players have helped in taking their team to heights that are significant based on the age of the two programs.

Bobby Flint

Bobby Flint will be off to San Angelo soon with a chance to continue playing football. The Angelo State University Rams will be the new stomping grounds for the recent graduated linebacker off the Canyon Lake team.

Flint will have an ongoing journal of what he has done and will do throughout his first year playing football at the College level.

This journal will be posted so others might take some lessons on what to expect if they take their skills to the next level. The ReSporter hopes you enjoy this feature.

The obvious reason was the Warriors being better. There were several items that fell together that helped in the undefeated season.

The ReSporter will go into some of the reasons Bracken won it all.

Turnover Ratio: The Warriors won the turnover battle in every game but one last season. Bracken intercepted 12 passes and threw five. The plus seven ratio helped BCS but that stat alone did not catapult the team to the championship.

Bracken Christian won the fumble stat overwhelmingly—28 to 8, or a plus 20. The opposition fumbled 42 times all together also helping Bracken hold the team without a first down.

Bobby Flint

Bobby ‘the tackle machine’ Flint had a very good career for the Canyon Lake Hawks the last three years. Flint will be taking his football resume to Angelo State University Rams this coming Fall.

The ReSporter will be having Flint reflect on his new career with the Rams each week for the website. By having a series of articles with Flint giving you the fan and possible future player that might want to continue your playing days after your high school graduation.

The ReSporter would like to take a look at the teams and what their football record was in comparison to the rest of the District. The records were only based on the team played in the regular season.

Canyon Lake played a 14-1 Wimberley team and so that was the number used for strength of schedule. The playoffs however were not calculated, so the 8-3 record of Burnet was not used nor was the Somerset record.

So each team will have a different number of games in the formula, but if the team played opponents that went far in the playoffs for their regular season game, then their record would reflect that calculation.
