The Geneva School of Boerne football program recently played in the TAPPS 7 on 7 Football Showcase held June 19-20 in Waco and finished the event with a 4-2 record to earn the Bronze Bracket Championship.
The Eagles sent 22 players and five coaches to Waco, including first-year head coach Adam Foren, who said his team performed well.
“I give our players and staff a lot of credit,” Foren said. “We’ve ramped up expectations and they’ve responded extremely well to that.”
At the tourney, the Eagles opened with round-robin play and went 1-2. Geneva lost to Kinkaid, 49-34, beat McKinney Christian Academy, 47-25 and lost to Southwest Christian, 34-33 in overtime. After that, Geneva went to bracket play and won all three games. The Eagles beat Plano John Paul II, 46-20, defeated Grace Community in the semifinals, 35-26 and then played McKinney Christian again, this time for the bronze championship. Geneva claimed the bronze bracket championship over McKinney Christian, 40-7.
The Eagles are in a newlook district this fall and will have some long bus rides. Foren said driving to Waco on a bus in June will help get them ready for the fall.
“It was a good dry run,” he said. “We’re going on road trips, so we need to get used to traveling.”
Prior to the TAPPS 7 on 7 state tourney, Geneva played in a 7 on 7 league and posted a 5-0 record in games hosted by San Antonio Christian. Foren said they will continue summer conditioning workouts through July and will begin official workouts on Aug. 3.
