On Thursday night, I was at Harlandale Memorial stadium as the winless Southside Cardinals visited the one loss Harlandale Indians.  Yeah, on paper, this game looked like a blow-out, but the stats and final score produced a very close game. The Harlandale Indians defeated the Southside Cardinals by a score of 21 to 14. I…

Setting the record in record setting fashion.  The Converse Judson Rockets make Texas High School football history with 37 consecutive winning seasons!  OK, I didn’t write that headline.  I actually had a Judson Rocket fan who also is a Twitter follower of mine write that for me.  Thank you Roland Guajardo (@RolandJudsonRoc). I want all…

On Friday night, I was at Ranger stadium in Spring Branch as the Judson Rockets visited the Smithson Valley Rangers in a HUGE District 25-5A game.   A lot of media outlets were calling it “the game of the week” and the reasons were pretty well defined. First, Smithson Valley was ranked Number 1 by…

On Thursday night, I was at Farris stadium for a District 27-5A game between MY Clark Cougars (class of 1995) and the Jay Mustangs. I always enjoy working a Clark game cause there are still some familiar faces on the Clark sideline…one is Coach Rodney Wilson (he was my History teacher), another is Paul “Doc”…

On Friday, I was at D W Rutledge stadium for a District 25-5A rivalry game between the Judson Rockets and the Wagner Thunderbirds.  This game is also known as “The Hammer Bowl.”  So, you’re probably curious as to the origin of the Hammer Bowl. Well, I will tell you… Cory Sears was a former Judson…

Last night, I was the Spring Sports complex for the Jefferson Mustangs and the Lanier Voks. I couldn’t have asked the “football gods” for a better day. For starters, it was my 3 year wedding anniversary.   I did see my wife for like 15 minutes in the morning before I left for work and I gave her…

On Saturday afternoon, I was at Benson stadium (which is where the University of the Incarnate Word Crusaders play football) for a High School football game between the St. Anthony Yellow Jackets and the St. Dominic Savio Eagles. This was not a TNL or a Texas Sports Radio Network game, nor did I do stats….

On Thursday night, I was at Gustafson stadium for a District 27-5A game between the Warren Warriors and the Holmes Huskies.    I have already worked two Warren games this season…a win in Week 0 where they exploded for 62 points and a loss in Week 1 where they only scored 10 points.  On the other…

On Thursday night, I was at the Springs Sports complex for the Burbank Bulldogs and the Highlands Owls.  Burbank trailed 21 to 0 at halftime, but in the 2nd half the Bulldogs scored 43 points and held Highlands scoreless.  Yes, folks, Burbank did the impossible and won the game by a final score of 43…

Boy, I am so glad that I didn’t choose to eat at Whataburger after the Brandeis/O’Connor game ended cause if I did, I would’ve been either a witness or stuck in the middle of a 30 second food fight!!!   “Clearly the rivalry between select students from these two high schools got out of hand,…

On Thursday night, I saw the number 1 team (Madison Mavericks) play the number 3 team (Smithson Valley Rangers). On Friday night, I saw the number 4 team (Judson Rockets) play the number 8 team (East Central Hornets). And, last night, I was at Farris stadium for what I am calling “the game of the…

On Thursday night, I was at Comalander stadium as the Smithson Valley Rangers visited the Madison Mavericks.  Both of these teams have 3 wins and 0 losses and Madison is ranked number 1 in 5A and Smithson Valley is ranked number 4 by Thursday Night Lights.  I wouldn’t be surprised if one of these teams made it…

Last night, I was at Hornet stadium as the Judson Rockets visited the East Central Hornets.  Even though it rained all day yesterday and several football games were delayed and/or canceled, this game went on as scheduled. Well, when I arrived the at stadium, the rain stopped!!!  It did rain on and off throughout the…

I had every intention on working this game as I really wanted to see the Wheatley Heights sports complex, BUT, something I ate earlier in the day didn’t agree with me (I won’t go into specific details) and I didn’t make it to the game.  Yes, I called (or texted in sick) to the boss…

On Thursday Night, I was at Robert and Glenda Lehnhoff stadium as the Steele Knights hosted the Kerrville Tivy Antlers.  If those names sound familiar, they should!  Robert was the head football coach at Clemens high school (he left that position in 2005) and also the Athletic Director for Clemens and the Schertz Cibolo Universal City Independend School…

Last night, I was at Heroes stadium as my “home team” visited my “bandwagon team.”  Man, who do I root for?    The Judson Rockets are my “home team.”  I have been working Converse Judson football games on the Texas Sports Radio Network for 10 years.   The Churchill Chargers are my “bandwagon team.”  The…

Last night, I was at Heroes stadium as the Churchill Chargers hosted the Warren Warriors. Ok, so the Judson Rockets are my “home” team and the Churchill Chargers are my ‘bandwagon” team. The Chargers starting running back is Nico Smisek and his Dad is Kevin Smisek, the head basketball coach at St. Anthony.  I was…

What a difference a Friday makes… Last Friday, I left my house at 4:15 pm and got home at 1:00 am.  Radio air time was 7:00 pm and I arrived just a hair before that.  I didn’t get the chance to hang any of the banners or sit in the press-box and take in the ambiance of Lake…

I am extremely passionate about San Antonio and Texas High School football as I am a statistician, a blogger, and a fan!!  I also love to see the progression of players from High School to College. Last weekend was the first week of both High School football and college football and I couldn’t help but notice that SEVERAL…
