Crandall QB at top of his game, and his class
Crandall quarterback Colton Kvapil (pronounced KWAY-pill) keeps his plate full when it comes to school activities.
He is ranked No. 1 in his class academically, is executive president of the student council and is a member of the National Honor Society, math club and the school newspaper staff. In addition to football, he plays for the school's baseball team and competes in track and field.
Kvapil is involved in the Central Baptist Church of Crandall. He plays drums and a little guitar for a Christian band.
"What else would I do in high school?" Kvapil asks. "I love doing everything. It is definitely a challenge doing so many things but something I like."
Kvapil said academics always come first, and he doesn't take on a responsibility if he doesn't think he has the time.
With the exception of one B in AP art, Kvapil is a straight-A student.
"Coaches always say football teaches life skills," Kvapil said. "To me, football is a part of academics. Knowing my assignments and my teammates helps me push our team."
Kvapil completed 136 of 281 passes for 1,590 yards and rushed for 856 yards in 2005, accounting for 19 touchdowns on the way to becoming the District 12-3A co-offensive player of the year. Crandall will compete in District 13-3A this season.
"He's one of those kids that is talented in anything he does," first-year Crandall coach Brian Barnett said.

I forgot Teinert was at SMU but then he transferred to Cal when the track program went under at SMU
