The Boerne Brew - Amy Ruede4-18-26

Host Kerry Barboza (sports editor, Boerne Star) interviews Amy Ruede, head girls basketball coach at Boerne High School. The wide-ranging conversation covers: San Antonio Sports All-Star Game – Amy's experience doing color commentary with Hector Ledesma, and her evolving philosophy from "must win" to "just have fun" across her two years coaching in the game. Shot clock & rule changes – Amy shares her support for adding a high school shot clock and a timeout-to-advance-the-ball rule, arguing both would make the game more exciting. Former players in college – Updates on Avery Aaron (Louisiana Tech), Chloe Donnell (South Alabama, entering transfer portal after elbow surgery), and Abby Smith (Flagler, FL). Daughters Jamie & Jenna – Jamie set a three-point record at Trinity, now doing video work for the A&M football team. Jenna played in the All-Star game last year. 2024-25 season recap – Boerne finished second in district behind Wagner, lost to Cedar Park in the first round of playoffs two years running (once on a half-court buzzer beater, once in a free-throw drought). Freshman standout – District newcomer of the year Sutherland is a cornerstone of the program's future. New district – Moving to a district with Boerne Champion, Alamo Heights, John Jay, Harlandale, and others — seen as a step down in difficulty, giving the program more opportunities to develop depth. Fredericksburg rivalry – Reflects on the intense 4A rivalry with Coach Groa, who is retiring after her daughter Ryland finished playing. Champion's new coach – A fourth coach at Boerne Champion is expected to be announced at the next school board meeting. 17-year tenure – Amy has been at Boerne High since fall 2009, taking it year by year as long as she loves it. Tennis – As assistant tennis coach, she's excited about seniors Aiden and his brother Gavin heading to regionals with state medal potential. Closing thoughts – She enters a "basketball depression" in the offseason, but got into the WNBA last year thanks to Caitlin Clark's impact on the league.
