This past Friday, October 19th, our team played the "Greyhounds" in Boerne. There was a close score at halftime with our Mules clinging to an 8-6 lead. But during the 3rd quarter our team played perhaps its finest period to date this season on both sides of the ball, exploding for 20-points on Offense and where our Defense limited the Greyhounds to a Field Goal when it appeared a TD was imminent with 1st and goal.

Senior Wide Receiver and Team Captain, Bobby Broadnax, had the "break out game," with two beautiful TDs, that many of us football-parental-units KNEW was coming as our Coaches "took their play calling gloves off" for serious State Play-off Qualifying District play.

However, the joy of seeing Bobby "do his normal thing" of making scoring TDs look easy, was tempered by the heart wrenching loss of fellow Senior Wide Receiver and Team Captain, Cody Courtney, for 4-6 weeks due to a broken hand suffered early in the 1st Quarter.

CODY, WE ARE ALL SO PROUD OF YOU AND ARE PRAYING FOR A QUICK AND COMPLETE RECOVERY.

On a positive note, during this game, our Defense continued its stellar play, limiting Boerne to 12 first downs (to AHHS's 17), 141-yards of rushing, and a meager 51-yards passing.
