Schramek Shines in Shorthorns Win
Schulenburg football player Brycen Schramek made two crucial plays in order to help will his team to their third win of the season on homecoming night last Friday. In a 10-0 bout vs Hearne High School, Schramek booted a clutch 25-yard field goal midway through the third quarter and also legged a monster punt on a snap that went over his head, cradling the ball and running for space, then sending it all the way down to Hearne’s side of the field. Schramek’s dad, Buck Schramek, also was a punter at Schulenburg. “Brycen was big for us,” said Schulenburg head football coach Luke Hobbs. “Every point matters. Especially in a defensive game like we had where offensive points are hard to come by. He flipped the field very well for us whenever we punted. His kickoffs were amazing, too. He had a PAT, he had a field goal, and that’s four points right there and tons of field position, so he was just huge for us and was a very big part of the win.” Schramek’s much needed playmaking has made him our selection for this edition’s Athlete of the Week.
CDA, BBRC Donate So Giddings State School Football Players Can Eat Meals At Away Games
At their Aug. 26, semiannual meeting, the Bluebonnet Regents Council (BBRC), National Society Daughters of the American Revolution approved the request by member, Sherry Hebert, to cover the cost of the meals for 15 athletes at the Giddings State School as they travel to football games. The BBRC made a gracious donation of $300 to the Giddings State School of the Texas Juvenile Justice System. These donations were in honor of Constitution Week and Veteran’s Day by the seven area chapters that make up the Bluebonnet Regents Council.
