Bandera ISD has filled the long vacant Defensive Coordinator position with the signing of Manny Martinez. Martinez comes to Bandera after a five-year stint as with the Dilley ISD.
The 3A-D2 Wolves went 2-9 last season, making the playoffs, but losing in the bi-district round to Odem. The year before, Dilley made the playoffs as a fourth seed and took out District 16 champs, Hebbronville in a close 28-27 decision, but ran into state semi-finalist, Boling in the second round and lost, 45-14.
In fact, Dilley made the playoffs every year Martinez was there and even claimed a district championship in 2016.
Martinez was named head coach for the West team in the South Texas Coaches Association All-Star game in 2018. That team won in a 23-0 shutout in Laredo.
Martinez has previous stops at Laredo Cigarroa, San Antonio Memorial and Lytle.
