Blue
The Bandera JV blue football team improved to 6-3 on the season with dominant 46-0 win over San Antonio YMLA Thursday evening.
Seven different Bandera players scored a touchdown in the win as it was a complete team effort for the Bulldogs to pick up win number six while clinching a winning record for the second straight year.
Julian De La Paz started the scoring with a 32-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and Jeffry Thomas added a 26-yard touchdown run early in the second. Riley Moran punched in a 10- yard touchdown run and Thomas connected with Damien Cadena on a 1 7-yard touchdown pass to cap off the first half scoring.
In the second half, West Cloudt scored on a 10-yard pass from Dylan Peace. Micah McCreary got into the end zone on a 12-yard touchdown run and Cristian Garcia-Carrillo capped off the scoring with a 52-yard touchdown run.
Grey
The JV Grey Bulldogs fell to Center Point 12-6 in a defensive battle Thursday night.
After the Pirates ate up much of the first quarter with a long scoring drive, Bandera answered right back with an efficient drive that was capped off by a two-yard touchdown run from freshman Colton Hauer. Center Point regained the lead in the second with another long scoring drive, and the teams exchanged key defensive stops from there.
Bandera had an opportunity to score before the half after moving the ball well with completions from James Bower to Gavin Garcia and Michael Garcia and an explosive run from Dane Barnett, but the Bulldogs ran out of time after moving inside the redzone.
The second half provided more scoring opportunities inside the redzone for the Bulldogs before the offense stalled out. The defense held Center Point scoreless in the second half behind the play of Barnett, Ben Marks and Daylon Lee, who controlled the line of scrimmage from start to finish.
Both JV teams will combine together again this Thursday night for the season finale against Carrizo Springs at Bulldog Stadium. A win would leave the JV team with its best record in several years.

Eighth grade
“A”
The Lady Bulldogs ended their volleyball season with a loss to Del Rio in two sets, 9-25 and 9-25. They fought and played great volleyball but were unable to come up with rallies to win the game. I am so proud of these girls and all of their hard work they have put in this season. I have no doubt that they will be ready to take on high school. These ladies have been running the same game play as they will in high school, so they are already one step ahead for next year. This has been an amazing year with a lot of improvement each week. Thank you for an amazing season!
"B”
Saturday saw the Lady Bulldogs travel to Del Rio for their final match this season. We fell short to the Lady Queens in two sets, 13-25 and 15-25. Jordan Tucker served up four points. Lilee Jimenez had one dig. Milesia Casas with two assists and Hannah Halsey and Xoi Cook with one kill each. These girls did not stop fighting until the very end and I am so proud of their growth throughout the season. I know that they will be showing us great things come next year.
Seventh grade
“A”
The “A” team ended the season with a win in three sets! In the first set, we started out a little sleepy and allowed Del Rio to gain a lead early in the game and unfortunately were unable to close that gap falling short, 21-25.
In the second set, we came alive with energy and were able to win 25-17 and the tiebreaker was a quick game as we carried our momentum with us and won,15-11.
The coaching staff is super proud of the amount of growth we have seen out of this group of ladies and we can't wait to see what they bring next season as eighth graders.

“B”
