New Braunfels didn't let much get past them through the air: they limited Boerne-Champion to a completion percentage of just 40%.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Pieper). They strolled past Seguin with points to spare on Friday, taking the game 56-42. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Warriors' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 158th, while the Matadors are ranked 336th).
