Record Editor - Cuero High School’s Cody Wallace was one of two football players from District 29-3A to make the The Associated Press’ Class 3A All-State football team.
Three other members of the Gobbler football team garnered honorable mention All-State honors.
Joining Wallace on the first team All-State list was Yoakum’s punter, Randy Boone.
Wallace, a 6’5”, 295 lb., junior, is a two year letterman on the Gobbler team. He was named a starter his sophomore year and moved from center to offensive tackle this season.
The Cuero coaches stated Wallace was the main cog in the offensive line that averaged 215 yards on the ground.
He is credited with 40 pancake blocks and 10 lead blocks that resulted in touchdowns this season.
Selected for honorable mention honors from Cuero were Will Littleton, 6’2”, 170 lb., senior, three year letterman, free safety.

He is credited with three field goals and 12 extra points this season. As a punter he kicked 23 times this season for a 36.65 yard average.

Anderson earns second degree
When he's not studying policy issues, first-year student
Matthew Anderson is playing football as No. 62 on the
UT Longhorn offensive line. Voted Texas' most consistent
offensive football player in 2000, Anderson is described in
the Longhorns' media guide as a "tough, hard-nosed and 
competitive fifth-year center who claimed Texas' starting
job in the fifth game of 1999." The media guide lists many
of Anderson's accomplishments on the football field, but his
academic achievements are equally impressive. Last
December he earned an undergraduate degree in corporate
communications, and this past summer he completed a
second undergraduate degree in government.
