Eisenhower High School’s Brian Nguyen Named to Academic “Elite” All-State Football Team

Student-athletes of the “Elite Team” hold grade averages at or near perfect GPA scores.

Brian Nguyen from Eisenhower High School recently earned Academic All-State honors in football. The Texas High School Coaches Association selected Brian for the first team.

The THSCA Academic All-State Teams presented by the Texas Army National Guard require that athletes, student trainers, and managers be in good standing with their teams. A recipient of the honor must be a senior, and maintain an overall grade average of 92. Members of the “Elite Team” hold grade averages at or near perfect scores. Class rank and SAT or ACT scores are also considered by the THSCA.

Brian is two-year letterman in football. He is an excellent student-athlete who is currently ranked #2 in his senior class and has a 3.6 GPA.

Everyone at Ike is proud of Brian, including Coach Kerry Bamburg.

“I could not be more proud of Brian’s academic achievements,” said Bamburg. “This is a great honor for Brian and Eisenhower Athletics.“

The Ike Eagle has an offer to play football at Austin College. Brian also has several academic scholarship offers from major universities. One of those top-tier schools is the University of Texas.

“We are proud of Brian and all his accomplishments,” said Principal Ben Ibarra. “Brian is a great example of the scholar-athletes we are producing at Eisenhower.“

Congratulations!
