On February 4, 2026, college dreams became official for 35 Comal Independent School District student athletes as they signed letters of intent during the third signing day of the school year. Surrounded by family members, coaches, teammates, and classmates, athletes from four of Comal ISD’s comprehensive high schools marked a milestone that reflects years of dedication, sacrifice, and perseverance.
While the celebration stretched across the district, Davenport High School stood out with four Wolves signing to compete at the collegiate level—each representing not only athletic talent, but the work ethic and community support that define the Davenport campus. For students, families, and fans, it was a proud moment that underscored how far these athletes have come and how much lies ahead.
Davenport High School Athletes Take the Next Step
Davenport High School’s signing class showcased both versatility and determination, with student athletes committing across multiple sports and universities.

For the Davenport community, these signings represent more than roster spots—they reflect countless early mornings, long practices, and the steady encouragement of teachers, coaches, and families who helped shape these student athletes along the way.

A District-Wide Celebration of Commitment and Opportunity
Across Comal ISD, signing day highlighted the broad range of athletic opportunities available to students. From football, baseball, basketball, and softball to water polo, diving, golf, tennis, soccer, cross country, wrestling, and volleyball, athletes committed to schools across Texas and the nation.
Notably, several students signed with prestigious military academies, including Joseph Coronado of Canyon High School, who will play football at the United States Coast Guard Academy, and Thor Myklebust of Pieper High School, who signed with the United States Air Force Academy. Their commitments reflect both athletic excellence and a calling to serve.
