Allen and Byron Nelson qualified for the Texas State 7v7 in College Station with strong showings.
The host squad (Allen) got strong play out of a defense led in the secondary by 2026 CB Lebron Bauer (5'10, 170) and 2026 CB Kai Wheaton (5'10, 170). Bauer, who holds offers from Arizona State, Arkansas, Houston, Texas Tech, and more, looked good at playing safety while displaying leadership qualities. On offense, 2025 QB Brady Bricker (6'2, 195) hooked up with 2026 WR Caleb Smith (5'9, 155) early and often.
