Welcome to episode 113 of the Texas HS Football podcast! This week, host Taylor Arenz sits down with a coach who has even more reason than usual to be excited about the upcoming season. After spending the past two years without a true home field, La Porte High School finally opened its brand new, state-of-the-art stadium. Head Coach Kevin Berneathy joins the show to talk about what this moment means for his team and community.
Coach Berneathy and Taylor discuss the Bulldogs’ first big event in the new stadium, as well as what additional features are still being added to the facilities. They also touch on the overwhelming support and excitement from the La Porte community. It’s clear that this stadium represents more than just a place to play—it’s a symbol of pride, resilience, and a fresh chapter for La Porte football.
The conversation goes beyond football, diving into Coach Berneathy’s path into coaching and the values he’s used to shape the Bulldogs’ program. He shares how his players stayed committed and focused throughout years of construction and how those challenges helped shape the team’s identity. His perspective offers a great look at what it takes to lead a team through transitions and into a new era.
Coach Berneathy also reflects on the one moment he’s looking forward to most under the lights, and why this $56 million facility is about much more than the price tag. It’s a story about tradition, progress, and community. You’ll enjoy this one—take a listen and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode!
