Officially 3 weeks in with Academy SWAT workouts going into 7th grade, plus with our OG Tre Williams for almost four years (while playing peewee tackle) and recently skill specific for about four weeks with @geezluizbatman
This is going to be an exciting 7th grade year! 💪🏻💚🐝
The Temple High School Pitmasters BBQ Team closed out the season in style by finishing in fifth place overall and placing in three individual categories at the National High School BBQ Association’s National Championships today.
The Pitmasters placed in ribeye steak, chicken, and pork shoulder to claim fifth place overall out of 75 teams representing 10 different states at the competition.
Temple High School won reserve grand champion honors as the second-place finisher in the ribeye steak category. The Pitmasters also added a fifth-place finish in chicken and earned an 11th-place finish in pork shoulder. Teams also competed in ribs, grilled cheese and Dutch oven upside-down cake dessert with a cumulative score determining overall finishes.
The Temple High School team is coached by Temple alum Joe Medrano and his wife, Allison. The five-person team is made up of senior Alex Mungia, juniors Hunter Frank and Travis Scantling, sophomore Colton McKenney, and freshman Maxwell Morrison. Each team member is responsible for a specific food item that must be turned in on a very specific timeline during each competition. Mungia is in charge of the upside-down Dutch oven cake dessert, Frank oversees the grilled cheese, Scantling handles the ribeye steaks, McKenney is the chicken specialist, and Morrison takes the lead with the ribs. The pork shoulder competition was added for the National Championship, presenting a new challenge. All five of the team members had a hand in preparing the pork and also helped each other with the other items during the competition.
This is the second time the Pitmasters have posted a top-five team finish at the National Cookoff. The inaugural Temple Pitmasters Team took second place to win reserve grand champion honors at the 2023 National Championship. Temple High School was also the defending national champion in pork shoulder. The Pitmasters compete as part of the National High School BBQ Association and also represent Temple High School Career and Technical Education. Congratulations to all! #TempleISDproud

When you’re meant to be, you just know! Thankful for our leader, our team, and the kiddos that have made me a better human being than I could ever imagine! Didn’t get pics with all of them, but we were busy getting them all ready to graduate with the biggest class for T-High! 💙
Watch out folks! Ty Henderson is the real deal and Coach Zig doesn’t play around! So happy that our son Layton is getting to work out with Ty as a mentor, with Coach Zig as the coach for specific line positions. It doesn’t get better than this! 💙💪🏻💙
