Bandera ISD
Cross Country
Many teams made the trek to Bandera Saturday to join Bandera’s high school cross-country teams to open their seasons at the Bandera XC Relay.
The Relay is a four-mile event that consists of two runners per team, racing over a one-mile course with each runner making a lap until both have run twice.
The Lady Bulldogs dominated the 19 team varsity girls competition to open the event taking four of the top seven spots.
Trinity Butler and Danielle Gonzales led the field with a 25:42 with Emily Presa and Carlye Niccum finishing in second running a 27:25 followed by Jalyn Lamb and Layney Bowman finishing fourth with a time of 27:54. Ryan Landree and Kierstin Brown finished seventh in 29:37.
Makayla Gonzales also competed as an individual, running two miles as her teammate had an injury.

The Bandera varsity boys fared well, with all teams in the top nine spots out of a 22 team field.
Braden Cox and Mariano Casas finished second with a 21:59 and teammates Mack Robinson and Hudson Jackson in third clocking a 22:27.
Freshman Fili Quintero and Lane Timmons ended in fifth 23:42. Kyle Moore and Ben Adamietz were eighth with a 24:07 and Ruben Palacios and Nino Martinez ran a 24:11 to finish in ninth place.
The Lady Bulldog JV took the top six places. Ashlyn Brown and Madelyn Garza ran a 29:11 for the win, Abril Rodriguez and Bietzel Gonzales were second in 29:59, and Alexandra McCrobie and Lydia Devigny finished close behind in third with a 30:06.
Kylie Minton and Lauren Meier, Riley Lalanne and Mila Chica-Fasting and Illiana Silva and Madison Gillaspie ran
30:40, 31:25 and 32:09 to take fourth through sixth respectively.


The JV Bulldogs were in the hunt, taking second through fourth led by Ashton Robinson and Jayden Patterson with a 25:20 followed by Jacob Tuma and Hayden Swalve in third at 26:03 with Logan Klappenbach and Michael Verhey in fourth at 26:28.
Other runners were Keaton and Ayden Sarver in seventh at 28:45 and Travis Niccum, Kelton Raab, and Carter Rissmiller also competed individually.
All teams will head to the Austin Westlake Invitational this Friday.
