The Two Minute Drill
​ Local sports, fast!

BHS
Tennis Report
By Ginger Frye, BHS coach

Bulldog Tennis lost to Canyon Lake Thursday night, 16-2, but Michael Nevarez and the team of Kathya Gonzalez/Jessica Taylor had big wins for Bandera.
There were a lot of really close matches, many went to tiebreakers, but we just couldn't quite close on them.
Next week, we travel to Ingram on Thursday to face the Fredericksburg Billies.


BMS Sports Report
Coach Jess Edwards

Volleyball
Bandera Middle School volleyball faced off against Wimberley Thursday night for their first home game of the season. All four of the Lady Bulldog teams played with enthusiasm and tenacity, but unfortunately fell short to the Texans. 
One highlight of the evening was the developing players game, a new program at BMS.
The group is comprised of athletes that enjoy volleyball and allows them to experience player-friendly, real-game situations while gaining more experience before they are ready to compete against other schools.
Two outstanding players in the group were Alyssa Cooper and Kimber Jureczki, who both were able to put together strings of successful serves.
The Lady Bulldogs will make the long trip to Burnet Monday night to battle with the Burnet Bulldogs.


Cross-Country

The BMS Cross Country teams defended their home turf at Bandera City Park on Saturday with almost 200 runners in both of the seventh grade and eighth grade races. Our Bulldogs performed well, overcoming the crowded course, the heat and many larger schools.
The seventh and eighth grade boys teams both finished in second place and the eighth grade boys ended up fifth.
Several Bulldog runners dropped minutes off of their personal records.
Jacob Tuma made made the biggest improvement from the Llano meet to our home meet, going from a 35:21 to a much improved, 23:38.
Others improving their best times were, Zach Siebels, 16:45 to a 14:30, Michael Verhey, 16:25 to 14:39, Layney Bowman, 17:06 to a 15:57.
Nino Martinez saw a 2:46 reduction from a 18:48 to 16:02, Ashton Robinson, 18:34 to a 16:07, Matthew Chavez, 19:20 to 16:16 and Hayden Swalve went from a 18:22 to 17:07.
Also improving their times were, Madelyn Garza, 19:08 to 17:11, Liam Sanders 19:31 to 17:22, Chloe Bodiford 21:37 to 19:27, Braden Valle, 24:30 to 22:16, Kimber Jureczki, 25:06 to 23:38 and Sadie Smith, 18:23 to 17:26.
All four teams will head to Fredericksburg on Wednesday.
