Adding a 4th year to the winning streak, CPFB dominated Westwood, 56-6 on Sep. 10. Even though the game was on a Thursday night, the student section was still full of cheering fans, and the team played just as well as they would on a Friday night.
The first series showed the defense’s strength with freshman wide receiver #7 Elisha Guidry almost getting an interception off Westwood, and a crowd-pleasing hit from senior defensive back #14 Collin Kramr.
“We [defense] played well as a unit,” Kramr said. “We communicated our calls and were just flying around making plays.”
CPFB prepared for this game with rigorous practices, according to junior running back #31 Tyler Lavine.
“We prepared mentally through film,” Lavine said. “We prepared physically through the hard, good practices we had.”
There were a couple of holding calls, and in the past few games the team has struggled with these kinds of penalties. Junior running back #27 Hayden Craig, noticed the penalties and believes that they have become more cautious during plays in order to not get flags thrown.
“I thought it [penalties] was better, but I felt some of the penalties were bad calls,” Craig said. “It was much better than in past games.”
For the games to come, the team is focusing on cleaning up the mistakes they’ve been making through each game, according to Craig.
“We are also focusing on making adjustments to Dripping Spring’s offense and defense, so we can dominate them,” Craig said.
Moving forward to Friday’s Homecoming game, CPFB is practicing hard to redeem themselves from the lost last year against Drip.
“I believe that if we play the way we know how, we can beat anyone in the state, and reach our goal of being 16-0,” Kramr said.

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

"I feel like it’s not really appreciated in America as much, but [tennis] is a really competitive and mentally challenging sport,” Nguyen said. “I’m really level-headed and can keep my cool during a match, and that helps me play a bit better under pressure.” Photo by Kyra Cox](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/hasun.jpg)

Lucas broke the school’s 18-year-old record for the 500 freestyle at regionals and again at state with a time of 4:58.63. “I’d had my eye on that 500 record since my freshman year, so I was really excited to see if I could get it at regionals or districts,” Lucas said. “ State is always a really fun experience and medaling for the first time was really great. It was a very very tight race, [so] I was a bit surprised [that I medaled]. [There were] a lot of fast girls at the meet in general, [and] it was like a dogfight back and forth, back and forth.” Photo by Kaydence Wilkinson](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Kaydence-2.7-23-edit-2.jpg)
