DRIPPING SPRINGS — Lake Travis rover Teddy Lofgren figured it would take a critical defensive play to beat upset-minded Dripping Springs.

With both teams struggling to move the football, Friday night's outcome would be determined by Lofgren's interception with just over 2 minutes remaining in a District 26-6A clash of unbeatens.

The Cavaliers took advantage of the turnover and running back Vann Hopping scored on a short plunge with 1:34 to go to give the Cavaliers a 14-7 victory at Tiger Stadium. And when Lake Travis linebacker Owen Aird recovered a fumble on Dripping Springs' ensuing drive, that sealed the deal in a game that was nothing short of a defensive struggle.

Lake Travis coach Hank Carter said he wasn't surprised Lofgren was part of the game's decisive play.

"Teddy's a former quarterback," Carter said. "He played quarterback growing up, he's a basketball player. He's just a super dynamic, athletic kid."

Lake Travis (7-0, 3-0 in 26-6A) and Westlake (6-1, 3-0) are tied for first place heading into their rivalry showdown Friday night at Chaparral Stadium.

Here are some takeaways from the Lake Travis-Dripping Springs game.

Cavaliers find a way to win

Lake Travis hardly resembled the offensive unit that had averaged 51.5 points heading into the Dripping Springs. The Cavaliers finished with a meager 189 total yards but scratched for two fourth-quarter touchdowns to win it.

No one played any better than Cavaliers end Carter Buck, a TCU pledge who has been one of the area's best defensive players for two years. Along with fellow linemen Ben Duncum and Pierce Atkins, Lake Travis limited Dripping Springs to 221 yards. Nevertheless, the Tigers carried a 7-0 lead into the fourth quarter after running back Lawson Attaway capped a 75-yard drive with a short touchdown run late in the third.

"Honestly, we should have held them zero points, but it was a great win, for sure," Buck said. "We've got a lot of stuff to fix, but this game was good for us."

The game seemed destined to go into overtime until Lofgren intercepted his pass at the Tigers' 35 and returned it to the 15. With a large Cavaliers crowd roaring with approval, Lofgren said the game was over after he made the play.

"Oh yeah, I could feel it," he said. "The momentum shifted just like that. The game was was so fulfilling, it felt like a movie. I can't even explain it. It was so surreal."

Across the field, Dripping Springs coach Galen Zimmerman's team was handicapped before kickoff. Arizona State-bound receiver Cooper Reid (separated shoulder) and fellow receiver James Montgomery (illness) did not play. When you consider those receivers have combined for 18 receiving touchdowns this season, it might have been a different outcome of they had played.

"No moral victories, but I'm proud of my guys," Zimmerman said.

Guess who's next for Lake Travis?

"Thank God for football!" Carter shouted to his players when they broke their team huddle after the game. His weekly catchphrase will have even more meaning if the Cavs can knock off Westlake on the night that Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees will have his Westlake jersey retired.

The coach correctly pointed out that his team will have to clean up a few mistakes. The Cavs were held scoreless through three quarters, partly because they had three first-half turnovers.

"I love the fact that we had to battle right here," Carter said. "We didn't do a lot of stuff right in the first half and still found a way to win. It's awesome."

Lake Travis, which won a state championship in 2016, hasn't had much success against the champs over the past eight years, going 1-7 in that span. At least two Cavaliers believe their team is due to beat Westlake and become district champions, though.

Buck said it should be "a close game." But ...

"If we fix these mistakes, we should have them," he said. "On paper we have a way better team than them."

The man of the hour had the final word: "They better be ready for us because we're coming," Lofgren said.

DRIPPING SPRINGS — Dripping Springs ISD received its highest score on the Texas Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST) this year, according to a presentation by chief financial officer Randy Rau at the board’s Oct. 27 meeting.

The state's school financial accountability rating system is designed to ensure that Texas public schools are held accountable for the quality of their financial management practices and that they improve these practices, according to the Texas Education Agency. The system is designed to encourage Texas public schools to better manage their financial resources to provide the maximum allocation possible for direct instructional purposes.

FIRST originated with Senate Bill 875 of the 76th Texas Legislature in 2009 and was later revised by House Bill 5 of the 83rd Legislature in 2013 to include a process for anticipating future financial solvency of the district, Rau said. School districts are required to prepare a FIRST Financial Management Report, as well as advertise and hold a public meeting to discuss the rating.

The FIRST rating system consists of 21 base indicators — four are deemed critical, 10 relate to solvency and seven relate to financial competence. The indicators measure the following: compliance with audit reporting; timely debt and employee benefit related payments; healthy fund balance levels and activity; relationship of district revenues to expenditures; and accuracy of student attendance estimates and consistency of staff ratios.

For the 2024-25 rating, which is based on 2023-24 data, DSISD scored 100 out of a possible 100 points and received an “A” rating, surpassing last year’s numerical score of 98. This shows that the district is financially strong, explained Rau.

“That’s a rating of Superior. It’s an improvement over last year’s [score],” Rau said. “It highlights the district’s continued focus on responsible management and strong financial oversight. The district maintains a healthy fund balance of approximately $49.6 million; it’s more than five months of operating costs and there are no questioned costs or findings in the daily operations.”

Trustee Rob McClelland pointed out that the district’s total assets are outpacing the liabilities, even with the construction that is happening, which, he said, is "extremely positive.”

“Five-percent increase in our total assets [and] only 1% increase in liabilities. Our net position in millions has increased by … 21%. These are all extremely healthy signs of a strong financial district,” he said. “It’s reflected in our FIRST rating, but also, it’s reflected in the actual financials in which we are operating. I think our charge going forward is to maintain that.”

According to trustee Kim Cousins, getting this high score is exciting, “like you passed your test and you got a 100,” adding recognition to the district’s finance team for the hard work that they do every day.

“This speaks for the job that you’ve done and I guess, as our board, the decisions that we’ve had to make,” Cousins explained, “but your guidance and your knowledge to help us make these decisions together, I think helped us in the long-run to get this 100 and you guys are great.”

Director of technology

Following closed session, the board also unanimously approved the appointment of Greg Hubanek as the new director of technology.

Hubenak joins DSISD from San Marcos CISD, where he served for 18 years as executive director of technology. Before his time in public education, he held positions at Time Warner Telecom, Cisco Systems and Verizon.

A retired Army National Guard officer, Hubenak spent two years as chief communications officer for the United States Army in Kosovo, overseeing communications, computing and information systems for a 2,800-person multinational task force, Kosovo Force, according to DSISD.

As DSISD’s director of technology, Hubenak will lead the district’s Technology Department, oversee strategic planning for technology systems and guide the development, implementation and use of technology across the district.

Hubenak is a graduate of Texas A&M University, where he earned a bachelor of science degree in electronics engineering technology.

He will begin his duties Dec. 1.

DRIPPPING SPRINGS, Texas — It seems fitting that a game between undefeated rivals that have been sharing a home stadium this season would have a strange vibe to it.

Friday’s District 26-6A contest between Lake Travis and Dripping Springs was closer to flat-out bizarre.

The Cavaliers, the No. 20 team in The Sporting News Texas top 25 rankings, scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 7-yard run by Vann Hopping with 1:37 remaining, then held on for a 14-7 victory over the Tigers, the No. 19 team in The Sporting News Texas top 25, on Friday night at Tiger Stadium.

With its stadium being renovated, Lake Travis has been playing its home games at Dripping Springs this season. The Cavs will also play at least three home games at the venue next season.

“Credit to Dripping Springs,” Lake Travis head coach Hank Carter said. “[Dripping Springs head] Coach [Galen] Zimmerman and his bunch, they do a great job. I’m proud of my guys. Great job by our coaches and our kids. Excellent crowd behind us, too.”

The Cavaliers (7-0, 3-0) never led before the Princeton commit crossed the goal line for his 56th career rushing touchdown, which breaks the school record set by Shaun Nixon.

“It shows that when times are tough, we can lean on each other, rely on each other and get through those tough times,” Hopping said. “Scoring the winning touchdown and getting the record were amazing.

“Our defense is great. We go against them every day in practice. They show great looks every time. They are a really talented group. It was weird being on the away sideline a couple of weeks after being on the home sideline. It was good to come here before we played them.”

Junior defensive back Teddy Lofgren set up the game-winning score when he picked off a pass from Dripping Springs quarterback Chase Ames with less than two minutes to play and the game tied at 7-7.

“We were running man,” Lofgren said. “The wide receivers crossed. I saw the ball coming. I just had to go make a play. I saw it, and I was like, ‘No way he’s throwing this.’ Then, it was in my hands. I was so excited. I heard the crowd. It felt so surreal. It was like a movie out there.”

The first half, which included a combined nine punts and four turnovers, was scoreless. Dripping Springs forced three first-half turnovers, including a pair of interceptions by Liam Lawson and a fumble recovery by Major Bettridge. Braeden Lott recovered a fumble for Lake Travis late in the second quarter.

The Tigers (7-1, 3-1) scored the first points of the game on the opening possession of the third quarter. Lawson Attaway scored on a 6-yard run with 4:30 left in the third quarter.

Dripping Springs had another chance to tie the game and force overtime when it got the ball back with 1:31 to go. But Lake Travis linebacker Owen Aird recovered a fumble with 42 seconds remaining sealed to seal the win for the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers came into the game averaging 49.1 points per game, while the Tigers were averaging 46.5 points per game.

“It’s one of those things where neither one of the offenses could get anything going,” Carter said. “We thought they might be pretty conservative down there, but they decided to throw it, and we stepped in front of it. It was a great game. They gave us fits all night.”
