Hello, Pirate Nation! Last Friday, November 5, 2021, the Varsity Football team took on the Cotulla Cowboys in the final game of the season. It was a good game played by the Pirates. Offensive standouts include Junior Deven Caldera, who rushed for 58 yards on 22 carries and a rushing touchdown and Junior Connor Martin, who scored two rushing touchdowns in his first start of the season. Defensive standouts include Deven Caldera, who led the team in tackles (6 Solos, 2 Assists, 1 Forced Fumble). In addition, Junior Albert Aguilar (4 Solos, 1 Assist, 1 Forced Fumble, 1 Fumble Recovery) and Senior Joshua Del Toro (4 Solos, 2 Assists, 1 Fumble Recovery) also had solid performances. Our Pirates did great competing, and although it was not the outcome we wanted, there is no doubt that all our players "left it all out on the field."

On behalf of our staff and players, I want to sincerely thank our Pirate Family for all the support that we have received throughout the season. We also want to thank our Pirate Football Senior class for all the hard work and dedication that they have given to the Pirate Football program.
As we transition into the off season, our coaching staff and players look forward to our first, full Off Season together. We look forward to welcoming back 18 letterman/starters for the 2022 season. We have had remarkable success at our sub-Varsity levels and with the help and support of our administration, faculty, and staff, our program achieved a 99% academic passing rate this season. This is a testament to our focus on academic achievement, as well as athletic achievement. The future is bright, and our staff and players look forward to building a successful brand that is built to last. Thank you again, Pirate Nation, for your continued support.
