The Bruni Badgers are 0-3 after the first three weeks of the football season losing to LaPryor (34-0), Santa Maria (42-0), and Freer (54-0). Last season they were 5-6 and went 2-1 in district play. They are returning six offensive and seven defensive players from their bi-district qualifying team.
This year they are in a five team district and are predicted to come in fifth behind LaVilla, Agua Dulce, Ben Bolt, and Woodsboro. The biggest hurdle the Badgers face is offensive scoring. They have not found the endzone in three games. Defensively, the Badgers have allowed big numbers with their opponents averaging 43.3 points per game.
“The Badgers will be experienced up front led by DL TomasHernandez (75 tackles and 6 sacks), OL Crispin Castillo,” according to Dave Campbell’s Texas Football Magazine. Jaden Guardian will look to play the new role of quarterback after playing receiver previously in 2023.
