Bandera ISD is proud to announce the hiring of Aidan Keane as the new Head Coach for the 25/26 Lady Bulldogs Soccer Program.
A 2017 graduate of Bandera High School, Coach Keane brings a deep passion for the game and a strong legacy of success both on and off the field. As a standout goalkeeper, Keane earned All-State honors in 2016 and 2017, helping lead the Bandera boys soccer team to a historic run to the Class 4A Region IV Championship in his senior year.
Following his time at Bandera, Keane continued his athletic career at McMurry University, where he played collegiate soccer for three seasons. As a sophomore, he was named the American Southwest Conference (ASC) Defensive Player of the Week after recording seven saves in a shutout victory over the University of the Ozarks.
In 2021, Keane returned home to Bandera and joined the boys soccer coaching staff, serving as assistant coach for the past four seasons. During that time, he played a key role in developing talent, mentoring three first-team All-Region goalkeepers and one first-team All-State goalkeeper. This past season, the Bulldogs made a long-awaited return to the playoffs—their first since Keane’s own senior year.
In addition to his work with the soccer program, Keane was named Head Boys Cross Country Coach in 2023, leading the Bulldogs to their fifth consecutive trip to the Region IV Cross Country Meet.
“Coach Keane embodies the heart and hustle of a true Bulldog,” said Joel Fontenot-Amedee, BISD Athletic Director. “He knows what it means to wear Bandera blue and brings a winning mindset, high-level experience, and strong mentorship to our Lady Bulldogs program.”
Please join us in congratulating Coach Keane as he takes on this exciting new role. We look forward to the continued growth and success of the Lady Bulldogs under his leadership.
