The Eyes of Texas hold steady on both a Seguin and Navarro High School senior
Seguin area generates not one but two of the top students to be accepted to UT
Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- Although it’s talking about its campus in Austin, the motto for the University of Texas “What Starts Here Changes the World” might have already started here in Seguin for the upcoming fall. That’s because not one but two local high school seniors recently received the lifechanging surprise of an $80,000 scholarship from the University of Texas.
In fact, Seguin High School Senior Danielle Nyame and Navarro High School Senior Sophia Castillo were two of only
three students to receive the $80,000 scholarship as part of the 2025 UT Austin Impact Scholars Program.
Not only were they two of three, but they were also selected from a pool of thousands of candidates.
Caroline Enriquez, UT’s director of holistic review, helped explain this prestigious accomplishment.
“We had over 91,000 students apply for freshman admissions this year of which these two students were applicants within that pool and because of their UT, pg. 4
Man arrested for early morning shooting
(Seguin) – A man has been arrested after firing a round of shots Tuesday morning.
Arrested by the Seguin Police Department was Alejandro Salcedo, 18. Salcedo is charged with Deadly Conduct – Discharge of a Firearm, a 3rd-degree felony. Officials say the arrest is in connection to a shooting that occurred around 7:15 a.m. That’s when Seguin PD officers were dispatched for a report of shots fired in the area around Ellis and Ireland Streets.
Upon arrival, officers made contact with several individuals in the 700 block of E. Mountain St.
During the investigation, officers confiscated a firearm and seized a vehicle. Several witnesses were interviewed, and all subjects were identified. Salcedo was later arrested that day. Officials say this case remains under investigation.
Guadalupe County orders burn ban
(Seguin) – Despite the rain in this week’s forecast, Guadalupe County officials are saying no to outdoor burning. The order for the burn ban is currently in effect.
The decision by the Guadalupe Commissioner’s Court was made following the request by Patrick Pinder, the Guadalupe County emergency management coordinator and fire marshal.
Pinder says dry conditions and strong winds have made things dangerous throughout the area.
“We are currently seeing an increase in controlled burns that are getting out of control in the county. When we lifted the burn ban, we allowed citizens to kind of take care of some things for the last few weeks. But with the conditions we are currently seeing out there right now with red flag days, wind picking up – it has been requested by some of the citizens also. I spoke to one that Commissioner Engelke sent to me this morning. They are requesting that the burn ban be put back into place,” said
Pinder.
Pinder says ordering the burn ban for the unincorporated areas of Guadalupe County is in line with the other actions being taken in surrounding communities.
“The current KBDI for the county is at 579. Bexar County is at 624. Comal is at 524. Gonzales is at 550. Wilson is at 631. All the counties except for Wilson and Gonzales are in a burn ban currently,” said Pinder.
Pinder says the danger is real. He says even the grass in front of the Justice of the Peace Pct. 4 office recently caught fire. Again, despite whatever rain is reported this week, Pinder says it will still not be enough to bring down the heat index. He also believes it may still take some time to see conditions favorable for burning. Meanwhile, the court has agreed to consider the burn ban week by week. Officials say if needed, the order can be lifted at any time.

Public invited to learn more about the water supply
Edwards Aquifer director to share more on the issue during today’s luncheon
Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) – Do you ever wonder about the current state of our water supply? The importance of water and its preservation will be the topics at hand during today’s meeting of the Guadalupe County Republican Women.
The group today is inviting folks to its luncheon where it will welcome guest speaker Paul Bertetti, senior director of aquifer science research and modeling at the Edwards Aquifer Authority (EAA). The luncheon will be held at 11:30 a.m. in the Silver Center.
GCRW President Tamara Berger says the group is excited about hosting Bertetti and looks forward to learning more about our most precious resource.
“We are very much looking forward to Mr. Bertetti coming to speak. Stephen Germann who is one of our commissioners, he actually gave me his name. He has
heard him speak before and said he is an excellent speaker and very very knowledgeable. He has spent 30 years with the Edwards Aquifer Authority, and he’s been a research
scientist studying complicated aquifer systems like the Edwards, the Carrizo Wilcox and the Trinity Aquifer,” said Berger.
Although it’s the Republican Women hosting the event, Berger
says today’s topic is not about politics but sustainability.
“We really want to focus on things that affect all of us, all Texans. This is not a partisan issue. This is an issue that we are all being affected by, so just to become more knowledgeable and more informed about what our resources and what our options are. The growth is certainly a concern, the drought we are in, the scarcity of water – all these things are just important and so we all need to come together and see what we can do to help alleviate the problem,” said Berger.
There is no cost to come out and hear today’s presentation. Those wishing to purchase a meal are encouraged to reserve a plate this morning by calling or texting 830391-3979. Meals are $15 in advance or $20 at the door. The Silver Center is located at 510 E. Court St.
UT, continued.
academic performance over the years through high school – their leadership, their involvement – all of the things that they put their blood, sweat and tears into, they gained admission. For one, that was a huge feat because of the 91,000 students, we admitted a little over 18,000 students total for freshman admission and of those 18,000 plus students, they were among just three students selected to be presented by the board on that particular day,” said Enriquez.
Enriquez says the students were presented and completely surprised with the news during the Hook ‘Em House hosted by UT Austin and the South by Southwest Conference (SXSW) on March 7. Enriquez says making things even more special is that both students are products of the Seguin area.
“It’s pretty remarkable that we had two come from Seguin. We not had one come from Seguin since we started the program in 2018 and so this is really cool that we had two students that rose to the top that are from the same hometown and it being a smaller community too, I think it says a lot about the students from Seguin,” said Enriquez.
Enriquez says their selection for the $80,000 scholarship was again based on their application and the changes that they have already made to improve the environment of their family, school or community.
“As we review applications because we really do read every single one that is complete and on time and we can make scholarship recommendations out of our review and that’s part of how this works and when we see something special in a student from that point, then they kind of get under our radar to make sure we are paying special attention to them in our scholarship consideration process. They definitely stood out amongst the batch of 18,000 plus students and its students that we wanted to recognize and do something special for,” said Enriquez.
Nyame says the whole event itself was a total surprise and still can’t believe the fanfare and appreciation that was shown by the Longhorn community.
“While I’m there, I am introduced to the admissions team, and I actually get into an Uber with someone else from Seguin. Her name is Sophia, and we did not make the correlation whatsoever. We were like ‘OMG. You’re from Seguin? I’m from Seguin? That’s crazy.’ So, we get to the venue, and we are still being introduced to so many people. We are getting a tour of the entire place and we are just eating refreshments and having a good time and then after that, that’s when the Longhorn Band came out and they had just started the whole entire conference – the introduction and then we actually had the vice president of UT come onto the stage and he is the one that actually
introduced us. After that, we were gifted jackets that were embroidered with UT Austin but while all this was happening, Joey Williams (director of marketing, university marketing and communications) actually came onto the stage with three big checks of $80,000 and that’s when I found out I was getting a scholarship and I realized that the whole mantra of the day for the South by Southwest Conference that day was to award the 2025 Impact Scholars,” said Nyame.
Nyame says being selected as an Impact Scholar is just one of the benefits of having worked so hard these last few years. She says that work is not going unnoticed.
“Very vaguely do people know the journey and the hard work and the dedication that all four years of high school have led up to receiving this moment. Seeing all your hard work actually pay off and actually not only be recognized but be recognized by the university as that is something that just doesn’t happen on the daily – knowing that I was one of the people that actually got recognized was truly just like ‘I did it! I did it!’ said Nyame.
Sharing that same excitement is Castillo. Castillo, like Nyame, says the experience was a complete surprise and serves more as a testament to overcoming obstacles and defying expectations.
“I had absolutely no clue that I would be receiving this scholarship and so to me, it really felt like a full circle moment for all the work that I put into for the past four years in high school. Immediately, I thought of my parents’ sacrifices. I mean I am a first-generation student so to be on that stage was more than just receiving funding. It was truly everything to me because my parents are from Mexico and to be here in America and to have a foundation of education, it meant the world. I’m almost at a lost of words, right now, thinking about it again,” said Castillo.
Although they have each received the $80,000 scholarship, neither of the ladies has confirmed an official commitment to the public university. Castillo, who has also already been confirmed as this year’s Valedictorian for Navarro High School, says their hard work has not only secured the funding for their future, but it has provided them with options.
“So, I am not completely secure that I am going to UT Austin in the fall. I recently just got accepted into the University of Norte Dame and the Johns Hopkins University. So, UT is one of my top options but I’m very overwhelmed and blessed with options,” said Castillo.
UT officials say the impact scholarship is the largest scholarship awarded by the university.
Both young ladies say they hope to confirm their future school by next month.

TLU Softball Completes Sweep of Trinity
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Two crooked number innings and a gutsy start from senior Amanda White (Lockhart/Lockhart) led the No. 8 Texas Lutheran softball team to a 9-2 win over Trinity to complete the series sweep Tuesday night at Trinity Softball Field in San Antonio.
The Bulldogs (22-1, 14-1 SCAC) plated six runs in the third and three runs in the seventh to support White.
White improved to 11-0 on the season with a two-hit complete game, allowing two runs on the two hits and six walks.
Following back-to-back one out walks in the second, Trinity (22-6, 15-3 SCAC) scored their only runs on a two-RBI single. The Tigers hit in the third inning would be their last hit of the night.
Texas Lutheran responded in the third with a six-spot as each of the first five Bulldogs to bat reached base. Faith Hernandez (Dinuba, CA/Dinuba) hit a single up the middle, Bella Rodriguez (Pearland/Pearland) walked, and Linzee Leal (Corpus Christi/Mary Carroll) reached on fielder’s choice to fill the bases. Caelee Clark (Montgomery/Lake Creek) hit an RBI single down the left field line, Annie Kay (Sinton/Sinton) hit a bases clearing triple, Taylor Vannett (Kingwood/Kingwood) hit an RBI single to score
Kay before heads up baserunning from Serena Gonzalez (Corpus Christi/ Foy H. Moody) and Vannett led Vannett to score on a Trinity error to cap the scoring in the inning.
TLU struck for three more in the seventh, providing White more insurance. Caelee Clark scored on a passed ball, Chesley Swisher (Cypress/ Bridgeland) singled home a run and Kylee Jack (Richwood/Brazoswood) plated Swisher with an RBI single of her own.
The Bulldogs continue their road trip with a trip to Arkansas this weekend as the Bulldogs face University of the Ozarks in a three-game series starting with a doubleheader on Friday, March 28.

For a period of time, he farmed over 1,000 acres.

UN Warns Of Increased HIV Infections Without U.S. Help
(Geneva) -- The UN says there could be two-thousand new HIV infections daily and ten times as many deaths if the U.S. continues to freeze foreign aid. President Trump paused almost all foreign aid after taking office in January, including money used to fight HIV and AIDS around the world. The head of UNAIDS said Monday that the results could be disastrous, resulting in an additional six million deaths over the next four years.
Bird Flu Found In Sheep For First Time

Firefighters Had High Levels Of Lead, Mercury in Their Blood After Los Angeles Wildfires
(Los Angeles, CA) -- Some firefighters had high levels of lead and mercury in their blood in the immediate days after battling the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles County back in January. That is according to a Harvard researcher, who is part of the L.A. Fire Health study. Dr. Kari Nadeau collected blood samples from 20 Northern California firefighters who fought the Palisades and Eaton fires. Those firefighters, on average, had lead levels in their blood five times greater than a control group and their mercury levels were three times higher. Dr. Nadeau blames the disparity to breathing in massive amounts of toxic smoke.
