German Exchange Student Contributes To RPBHS Gridiron Success<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tony Bauer, a 16-year-old high school exchange student from Wolnzach, Germany, a small town outside Munich, is a big reason why the Royal Palm Beach High School varsity football team compiled a 7-3 regular-season record and advanced to the Florida High School Athletic Association\u2019s Class 6A state playoffs. Of the Wildcats\u2019 seven victories, two were achieved with game-winning field goals by Bauer, who is living with his aunt and uncle, Royal Palm Beach residents Claudia and Chris Allison, during his one-year visit to the U.S.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as I know, in the history of the football program here at Royal Palm Beach High School, we\u2019ve never had anybody kick a game-winning field goal for the Wildcats,\u201d said Eric Patterson, the school\u2019s current athletic director, who was the head coach of the football team from 2003 to 2008. \u201cTony is the first.\u201d Bauer\u2019s two game-winning field goals were impressive, since he had never kicked an American football until after he enrolled at RPBHS back in August. While Bauer has successfully converted a few point-after-touchdown (PAT) kicks this fall, he has actually only made two field goals this season, both of them game-winners.<\/p>\n

Bauer didn\u2019t officially dress out for a varsity football game \u2014 wearing jersey number 47 \u2014 until the sixth game of the year, when the Wildcats traveled to Boca Raton High School on Oct. 4. The first game-winning kick took place two weeks later, on Oct. 18, in his second game at Palm Beach Gardens High School. While Bauer is used to playing sports, the American football experience is vastly different than the type of football \u2014 known here as soccer \u2014 that he plays back in his native Germany. \u201cI like it,\u201d Bauer said. \u201cThere\u2019s lots of action.\u201d<\/p>\n
