The Bracken Christian Warriors got to their Homecoming Dance early as they beat SA Lutheran 58-0 with

Sophomore Coy Zunker with a smile that says a thousand words

a Mercy game at Bracken Stadium on Friday night.

The SA Lutheran Mustangs took the opening kick and started the game with a very impressive drive. The Mustangs muffed the kick off and started on their three yard line.

Bracken was licking their chops with this opportunity, but were surprised by a methodical drive down the field. A 12 play drive that churned out 47 yards of real estate and had taken five minutes off the first quarter clock before the Warriors could finally get their bearings and halt the Mustangs at the Warriors 30 yard line.

“We started slow,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields started. “We were looking at a new offense and our defense was lined up incorrectly. We adjusted and then played much better.”

San Antonio Lutheran would not pass the midfield stripe for the rest of the game as Bracken’s defense became opportunistic and stingy.

Those 47 yards on Lutheran’s first drive, was also a high water mark for this Mustang team as the rest of their game went backwards to the tune of -23 yards.

The Defense also scored twice on two interceptions that were returned for touchdowns.

The ReSporter: How has your team handled their first loss of the

Head Coach Lloyd Fields

Coach Fields: “We lost our first game during the regular season since 2009 and these players are very workmanlike and don’t show a lot of emotion, they understand what we need to do and will display that on the field.”

The ReSporter: How do you handle the rest of this season as District play starts in earnest?

Coach Fields: “We are real happy with our offense, but we will be making some adjustments in our games coming up. We have moved Davis Scott from running back to receiver to help replace losing Arnold Adame. We had lost our vertical game with Adame’s loss and that will help replace that hole. Scott is also faster than Arnold was, but Arnold had more size.
Eli (Achilles) will be moving to running back and Sam Hilgendorf will be our quarterback. Preston Koch will stay as our power back.”

 BCS 60 Brenham Christian   12     SA Lutheran 63 Cedar Park Summit  74
 BCS 56 Boerne Geneva       58

Bracken Christian is now in the part of their schedule that will not have a lot of resistance as far as going more than two quarters in any given game.

SA Lutheran does not have a home field and so they have the added burden with being on the road for all of their games.

Their record for the three teams played so far is a respectable 9-5 season. In the past SA Lutheran has struggled to score and this might be a more potent scoring team, but The ReSporter would think that they would not be able to score more than Sugar Land Logos Prep’s 20 points against BCS earlier this season.

Bracken Christian came out on the short end in their water logged contest Friday night in

Davis Scott and Eli Achilles

Boerne, 58-56.

“We beat ourselves,” Head Coach Lloyd Fields said. “I did a poor job of coaching and we could of done better, but I put our kids in situations they could not succeed.”

The Warriors had their chance with the ball in the first quarter having already stopped Boerne Geneva while BCS scored on their first two drives and driving for their third.

On that drive, a pass to Warrior Gunnar Stolhandske fighting for extra yards fumbled and the turnover gave the home team some momentum while stopping another chance for a score.

Bracken also had trouble in the bonus point part of their game, especially when you take into account that the Warriors had more touchdowns in this game and with a few pat’s conversions BCS would of won the game without a problem.

Eight yards from reaching 600 yards of total offense and you get the idea this Warrior team was not hurting on the offensive side of the ball.

The ReSporter:Coach Fields what are you thinking as you approach the

Head Coach Lloyd Fields

biggest game in this regular season?

Coach Fields: “Geneva and Bracken are the only two remaining undefeated schools left in Division I. They are big, strong, and deep. They have two quarterbacks and one of the best receivers I have seen. They are more physical than Sugar Land Logos.”

The ReSporter: I can see by your opening statement that you have been spending some quality time studying for this team. Give us an idea of another team that might help novices like me to understand what is in store for BCS?

Coach Fields: “Abilene Christian (the team that beat BCS last season in the Semis), their defense is very similar and they run a lot of the same techniques.”

The ReSporter: Does their offense remind you of Abilene Christian?

Six-man football is one of the toughest games to have a legitimate idea on how good opposing teams might be.

Many times you can’t find out much from UIL 2A and 3A schools, much less for teams that represent a much smaller enrollment and then add the vast land in Texas and you have teams that could be facing each other during playoffs that could rival traveling three or four states in the Northeast USA.

One thing we do know about Geneva, they are only 30 miles from Bracken and you can deduce or have a better idea of their strength, but it still is not an exact science.

Another item we know about this Eagle team is their record. They bring an unblemished record and have played an UIL club and beat them handily in Rochelle by 44 points.

This team has played two regulation games while Bracken has mercy ruled their opponents and last week only played 11 minutes before Brenham Christian had to throw in the towel based on not having enough players left after starting the game with nine on their roster.
