Brazoswood High School Girls Soccer Headlines Record-Breaking Year as 2026 Third Annual Grant Teaff Beyond the Game Team Award Recipient

WACO, Texas - EntSun -- Brazoswood High School's Lady Buc Soccer Program has been selected as the recipient of the 2026 Grant Teaff Beyond the Game Team Award and will receive a $5,000 grant from the Grant Teaff Foundation.

The Grant Teaff Foundation and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame, with the support of the Texas High School Coaches Association, the Texas High School Athletic Directors Association and Dave Campbell's Texas Sports, present this award annually to Texas high school teams that exemplify outstanding service to their communities beyond the game.

"High school coaches have a unique opportunity to shape their athletes' lives by fostering a culture of servant leadership," said Grant Teaff, a member of eight halls of fame, including the College Football Hall of Fame and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame. "I commend Coach Kim Blank and the Lady Buc's for their exceptional leadership and dedication to selfless service."

The Lady Buc Soccer Program participated in a wide range of service opportunities, including volunteering at the local SPCA, supporting nursing home events, organizing donations for BISD's Stuff the Bus, partnering with the Brazosport Junior Service League, assisting with numerous district and community events, and contributing to local organizations through outreach and service projects. Through these initiatives, student-athletes collectively contributed hundreds of hours of community service while making a meaningful impact across their community.
