With the UIL 1A-4A football playoffs looming on the horizon, most districts have released their choices for their respective All-District picks. Bandera had seven players, five juniors and two seniors honored for their season performances in District 15-4AD2.
Liam DeMarchi was the Bulldogs only All-District First Team pick and that was on Special Teams.
DeMarchi, the Bulldogs go to punter, was instrumental in the kicking game and had many kicks that pinned opposing teams deep inside their end of the field.
DeMarchi was also named as an All-District Second Team
selection for his hard nosed play on the defensive line, where he recorded 35 solo tackles and numerous assists.
Junior QB, Tyler Moore made Second Team All-District
with his 952 yard season performance.
Moore accounted for 576 yards and five TD's through the air and 376 yards and two TD's on the ground in his first year at QB.
Bulldog WR, Brandon Miller, averaged over 23 yards per catch in a 17 catch, 395 yard season on his way to being named to the All-District Second Team. Miller found the end zone three times on the year.
Earning Honorable Mention All-District honors were
seniors, Will Paul for a 24 tackle and 1 INT season performance at safety and all around performer, LB/FB Garrett Meier. Meier, a blocking back on offense, had 59 yards rushing  on six carries and one score for the season and recorded 44 tackles as a LB.
Junior LB, Matthew Staton and junior nose tackle, Bryce McLerran, both finished the season with 34 tackles each and were also named to Honorable Mention All-District honors.
With five of the seven honorees returning for their senior season, some of the standouts that were not recognized and a good freshman squad that will move some players up to varsity, the Bulldogs are looking to be in good shape for next season.
