Bandera couldn’t have asked for a better start to the football season, rolling past Poteet 52-0 in Friday night’s opener.
Quarterback Dalton Parks led the way with 235 yards of total offense and five touchdowns — four passing and one rushing.
Wide receiver Jeffry Thomas was his top target, finishing with six receptions for 133 yards and three scores.
On the ground, Juan Cabrera rushed for 101 yards, while he and Breydan Gherman provided a steady mix of speed and power in the backfield.
Jake Cesta capped the scoring with a 1-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
The Bulldog defense stole the spotlight, holding Poteet to negative total yardage and forcing five interceptions.
Jaymin Klein had three picks, while Beto Rodriguez and Remi Galloway each added one.
It was a total team effort on defense, with contributions from Landon Popham, Jonah Klein, Dane Barnett, Kash Raab and the Cloudt brothers, among others.
Bandera (1-0) will host Ingram in a whiteout game Friday, Sept. 5, at 7 p.m. Fans are encouraged to wear white.
