It seems there is always something going on when Fredericksburg and Bandera play. Bandera coach, Carl Lee (L) and the Billie's coach try to understand the call with an explanation from the ref that made it.
Hannah Edwards (6) was an offensive dynamo, with help from her teammates, in the 7-0 win over San Antonio Cole. Edwards found the back of the net five times in the contest.

Boys Basketball
The varsity Bulldogs basketball woes continued with consecutive losses to the top two teams in the district, Fredericksburg and Boerne.

Last Friday saw the 25-0 Billies come to Bandera and take home an impressive 77-29 victory over the host team.
The Bulldogs played Fredericksburg close in the first quarter, finding themselves down by just two points, 16-14, to start the second.
Bandera ran into some offensive problems after the first and with three consecutive single digit quarters, allowed Fredericksburg to extend their lead and get the win.
“Fredericksburg has a great program and are very well coached at every level, with athletes who have been playing together for years and have bought into each other. They moved the ball very well and made some tough shots that were contested.
We have to continue improving defensively by pressuring the ball more and boxing out more aggressively for rebounds.
Offensively, we continued to improve on moving the ball well and had good scoring opportunities, we just couldn’t finish at the basket and the perimeter shots did not fall," coach Carl Lee said.
In underclassman action, Fredericksburg's  JV took a 69-20 decision and the Billie's freshman team defeated Bandera by a 46-22 tally.

Box score
                             1     2   3   4   Final
Fredericksburg  16 16 27 18  77
Bandera              14  7   4    4   29

Bandera scoring: Gunnar Winkler, 10, Trace Decker, 6, Liberty Bomer, 6, Liam Demarchi, 3, Taylor Brown, 2, Lukas Jackson, 2.

On Tuesday, the Boerne Greyhounds came to town and were looking to remain undefeated in district play as a showdown in their next game against unbeaten Fredericksburg was looming.
The Greyhounds started hot, opening up a 23 point lead in the first and stayed that way, outscoring the Bulldogs in every quarter on their way to a decisive 83-35 victory.
Friday nights games sorted out the District 28-4A standings with both 4-0 teams, Fred and Boerne, playing each other, both 2-2 teams, Canyon Lake and Wimberley facing off and both 0-4 teams played as Bandera took a road-trip to Llano. Those stats will be reported as soon as they are made available.

Box score
                  1     2   3   4   Final
Boerne     25 17  27 14  83
