Robstown, TX — The future of Cuero football looks bright. The Cuero Gobbler Freshmen capped off their season in dominant fashion Thursday night, rolling past Robstown with a 42–0 shutout to clinch an undefeated district championship.
From the opening whistle, the young Gobblers controlled the tempo, showcasing the kind of discipline, speed, and swagger that’s become a Cuero trademark. The defense was relentless—swarming the Cottonpickers, forcing turnovers, and keeping the scoreboard clean. On offense, the Gobblers moved with precision, stacking up points and chewing up clock.
This win marks the end of a perfect district run, with the freshmen squad going undefeated in 15-4A Division II play. Coaches praised the team’s growth, grit, and chemistry, noting that several players are already making waves as future varsity contributors.
Among the standouts this season:
• HB/MLB Prince Santa Cruz, a two-way threat who’s earned praise for his explosive runs and lockdown defense.
• A deep rotation of linemen and receivers who’ve built a foundation of trust and execution.
• Quarterbacks and defensive backs who’ve shown poise beyond their years.
With varsity eyes on a playoff run, the freshmen have already made their mark—a perfect season, a district title, and a promise of what’s to come.
Cuero football isn’t just strong now. It’s strong for years to come.
