Brett Sawyer hired as new Greyhounds football coach, Geneva coach Grant Gaston steps down

Boerne High didn’t have to look very far to find its new head football coach.

Brett Sawyer, who served as the school’s defensive coordinator for the last several seasons, was hired as the Greyhounds new football coach at Monday’s Boerne ISD school board meeting.

Sawyer succeeds Che Hendrix, who left the Boerne football program after seven seasons and took a job with the University of Arkansas.

Boerne ISD Athletic Director Stan Leech introduced Sawyer at the meeting and said "this was an interview seven years in the making," referring to the length of time Sawyer has been on staff.

Sawyer was glad to fill the position left by Hendrix and added, "we bleed purple in our household," he said.
