For over thirteen years, I spent Friday nights in the press box keeping BHP football stats alongside my dad, a passion project that eventually grew into building thembears.com, managing social accounts, and launching a podcast. However, as my three sons grew older and enrolled in the T.L. Hanna school district, I realized they needed their dad present for their own games and community traditions. Starting in the 2026 season, I am stepping away from Friday nights at BHP to handle live stats for T.L. Hanna.

2025 Season Wrap Up

As another season reaches its conclusion, I find myself compelled to do what has become both a privilege and a passion over these years, which is to shine a spotlight on the extraordinary people who transform Friday nights under the lights at BHP into something far beyond mere football games. From the players who leave everything on that field to the quiet heroes working in the press box and countless other corners of this operation, the story of the 2025 Bears simply could not exist without their contributions.

2025 Round 5 Bear Tracks

The moment has arrived, Bear Fans, and everything we have witnessed throughout this remarkable season has been building toward this singular Friday afternoon when Them Bears will step onto that field carrying the hopes and dreams of an entire community on their shoulders. This senior class has proven over and over that they possess the talent, the preparation, the heart, and the unwavering determination required to finish what they started, and I believe with every fiber of my being that when the final whistle blows and medals are awarded, those Big Bad Bears will be standing tall as state champions. The wait ends Friday at noon, so pack your vehicles, wear your navy and red, and get ready to witness history being written by a team that has earned every single opportunity now within their grasp.
