BMS Football Report
By Coach Jacob Esparza
Eighth grade
The Bandera Bulldogs traveled to Poteet to take on the Aggies in their first game of the season.
In the first half, the Bulldogs took the lead on a 30-yard touchdown run by Jesse Cardenas. The two- point conversion was unsuccessful.
With just two seconds left in the half, the Aggies punched it in from two yards out and the score was tied at 6-6 after Poteet’s two-point conversion failed. In the second half, the Bulldogs capped off a long drive with a 7-yard run by Cardenas followed by Bulldog QB, D. Gherman making the two point conversion to make it 14-6.
The Bulldogs defense bent but didn’t break with 3:00 left in the game and Poteet facing a fourth down on the Bandera six, the Bulldog defense stood the Aggies running back up at the line to force a turnover on downs. Bandera ran out the clock to take the win, 14-6.
Seventh grade
The seventh grade Bulldogs put up a good fight, but fell short to the Aggies, 30-0. The offense was able to find some big plays by QB C. Jackson and RB B. Thomas.
Defensively, N. Torres, M. Sevigny, M. Powell and M. Garcia, along with others, were delivering big hits.
Cross Country Report
Coach Jess Edwards
On Wednesday, Sept. 18, BMS Cross-Country returned from Fredericksburg with three undefeated teams!
Unfortunately, after a shortened (1.5 miles) eighth grade boys race, Fredericksburg was forced to cancel the meet.
Several runners in the earlier high school races experienced complications due to the heat, hydration, and other factors that required EMS personnel to take them to the emergency room.
For the safety of all of the athletes, Fredericksburg authorities wisely chose not to run the last three races.
We will head to Comfort on Saturday, Sept. 28, for our next meet.
