by John Renshaw published October 10, 2010 5:12 pm
Klein HS graduate (2008) Henry Kaetzer led the Colorado School of Mines defense in the 19-16 upset of No. 25 ranked Colorado St. Pueblo on Saturday.
Kaetzer led the team in tackles, with nine, and added a sack to his season total of two. Kaetzer also has a blocked kick and fumble recovery on the season.
As a Klein HS defensive lineman, Kaetzer was a two-time letterwinner in football. He was selected as team's Most Improved Player and Best Defensive Lineman. He was a Second Team All-District selection his senior year and guided the squad to the playoffs his final two seasons.
The Orediggers will host Mesa State College on Saturday, October 16th, at 12:00 p.m. (MDT) at Campbell Field.

14 Bearkats to play in College
14 Klein Bearkats from the 2009 5A State Semi-Finalist / Region 2 Champions are moving on to play college level football and continue their academic careers this fall.
The 2009 Bearkat Football team produced an memorable season and outstanding play-off run last year. These talented former Bearkat players look to make new beginnings and
positive impressions at their respective colleges. Each of the listed players will be added to the Klein Bearkat “Wall of Honor” this season.
Good luck former Bearkats.

Klein named US Army Strong 5A Team of the Year
Updated: 02.16.10:
The Klein High football team accomplished the improbable -- advancing to the Class 5A, Division II state semifinals where they
lost to eventual state champion, Abilene, 29-21, in Waco. The Bearkats (11-3)
were recently honored as the US Army Strong/Texas Football Magazine Class 5A
Football Team of the Year. The team will have a pep rally at 2 p.m. next
Wednesday; the pep rally will also honor the KHS swimmers and wrestlers who
qualified for the state championships on Feb. 26-27 in Austin. The KHS football
team improved from 4-5 (and a first round playoff loss) in 2008 to 11-3 and the
state semifinals last fall. 2009 Army Strong Teams of the Year are finally being
announced For the third straight year, TexasFootball.com is proud to partner
with the U.S. Army for the Army Strong Team of the Year at the conclusion of
each Texas high school football season. Each year, TexasFootball.com and the
U.S. Army join together to select one team from every classification in high
school football that demonstrated the qualities exhibited within the Army –
those include leadership, commitment to excellence and a desire to make a
difference as a member of a team. Each is awarded the Army Strong Team of the
Year by local officials from the U.S. Army at a school assembly or pep rally.
Army Strong Teams of the Year: Class 5A: Klein The Klein Bearkats were a
surprise team in the 2009 Class 5A-Division II playoffs, running off an
impressive four-game playoff winning streak to reach the state semifinals before
finally falling to eventual state champion Abilene. With three regular-season
losses, Klein needed help from district tiebreakers just to qualify for the 2009
playoffs. But once they got there, the Bearkats served notice right away that
they were a team to be reckoned with when they knocked off powerhouse Lufkin in
the first round. Led by star running back Dekota Barnes, Klein then knocked off
Cypress Ridge, South Garland and John Tyler to emerge as the Region II champion.
A narrow 29-21 loss to Abilene ended the Bearkats’ 2009 run with an 11-4 record,
but not before they had notified the rest of the state that they are a program
to keep an eye on in 2010 and beyond.
