82 5A State Champs

why do you think that.....WB's defense shut that running game down! It was our suspect pass defense that won the game for Clements! It basically came down to a third and three for us! We had the ball at about midfield with four minutes left and a 33-28 lead.....if we had gotten the first down instead of punting the ball, we could have eaten up the last couple of minutes. Instead, we call a run play that didn't work and we are forced to punt. Clements gets the ball and proceeds to drive to the other end of the field and scores. You see, joey, there are more variables to think about besides blaming the defensive coaches. They did what they thought was best at the time. I'm sure if they could do it over, things would be done alot different, and subsequently we would probably have won the game. I CAN tell you that if in the same position next year, things will be done differently. It still makes me sick, though, that we were capable of beating Clements......and Stratford.......and should be getting ready to play Katy this weekend!. BUT, it is what it is, and we cant go back to change things. All we can do at this point is look forward to next year. We will be back in the postseason next year.....and I look to go far! With eight returning starters on offense, and five or six defensive starters returning, I dont care what the district reallignment looks like, WB is going to be the team to beat. Bet on it!

true......they did potentially have some of the wrong players in the secondary, certain coaches have admitted to that. BUT, it's also the up to the coaches to make sure the players are "up" for every play and every set of downs and not get relaxed when they think they've got the game in the bag. The coaches allowed the kids to get relaxed. That loss should not have happened, and WE should be playing Katy for the Region III crown. One thing I can guarantee you is that next year, if we're not up by at least.......three TD's, our coaching staff will stay aggressive so as to not let the same thing happen!

Christine Michael was voted the District 21-5A MVP at the RB position. Most people dont know that because the "Beaumont Suprise" never printed the All District team, only the Baytown Sun did! >

What is Goose Creek Memorial going to do to Lee's enrollment? Are there many players going over there?

.....dont feel like you're the onle one's to not get any press from the "Beaumont Suprise". The first week the playoffs started, they had three high school articles and do you want to know which schools got the headlines? Give up? There were two articles on Lumberton and one on PN-G. Dont feel bad Dayton, "THe Suprise" is our home newspaper, and they didn't even cover the only Beaumont school (WB) to make the playoffs. Their coverage sucks! >

.....by his sister!

very good.........do you document all of your days like that? ??? ;D ;D

that would not be a bad 5A district......then it would only be between NS and WB for the district crown.....haha!

GOOD LAWD, scooter! let's hope we dont end up in that district.....it would be a fight for third place in that district as Lufkin and Westfield would be the frontrunners, and Spring, Humble and WB would be fighting for the other two spots! WHEW!

I'm guessing 21-5A would look something like this: West Brook, PA Memorial, One Baytown school(getting a new HS and numbers are sure to drop), I think we lose Channelview back to 4A.....as far as the other schools go, I have no idea. It wouldn't suprise me to see us getting North Shore again, and losing the two Humble schools. That UIL bunch is funny, you never know what they're gonna do. I think we'll be in a six team district again, instead of eight!

......here's West Brook pulling for you to go all the way! Go Bronco's

Stowers possibly jumping ship over at Central????? It's always tough to try and start a program from scratch, just ask the Atascocita HC Dean Clobert......it wasn't as easy as he thought!

Permian didn't just lose, they got whipped 38-14. This was not a good day for the state's powerhouse teams........Permian lost, as well as Southlake Carroll and Spring Westfield, who lost to Plano 31-19. Just goes to show you that anything can happen in the playoffs!

........well, this just goes to show you that if WB hadn't eased off of Clements and actually won the game last week, it could be us playing Katy in the Quarterfinals. I bet you our coaches wont allow the team to get relaxed again until the final whistle blows! Good Luck next year Bruins......it could (should)have been us there!

.....maybe you folks from Lumberton could give some of these "dead-beat" fans from Beaumont some pointers on how to properly support a local HS football team i.e. West Brook fans! >

......that's still a very impressive run, any way you look at it!

Your HC is not going anywhere, just yet! He'll have at least one more year!

SV beat Katy in 2002 24-20, and Katy beat SV in 2005 17-14! Should be a good game, but I believe Katy will win!

possibly.....I think it would be wise to maybe put him in at a CB or Safety position to see what his size and speed could do! We could use another weapon to help out our pass defense!

Region 4 hasn't produced anything that could beat Katy in a long time! I think they'll be gone next week! ;D

I believe Stump will find another position where Cooper (#26) can contribute besides RB!

Good LAWD!........ this is definitely a wierd one! Well, that just about guarantees that Katy will win division 2. Good Luck to Abeliene the rest of the way. ???

Don't know about anybody else, but West Brook is going to be the team to beat next year! Eight returning starters on offense, and five or six defensive statrers returning from a 10-2 team that averaged about 40 PPG and 19 PAPG! The freshman team was very good this year and I'm sure will make their presense felt on next year's team, also! West Brook will only get better in the years to come!

Congratulations on a fine season Lumberton! I had the great pleasure of attending this game and sitting among some great fans that have supported you all the way. It truely was a sight to see. You guys had a great season, but the better team won last night. Their offensive and defensive lines had so much size over you, that it made it hard to get anything going. But I can proudly say that you never gave up, never quit and played until the end. You were acyually able to play their game in the second half after some good halftime adjustments, but it was hard to overcome a 4 TD defecit. You should hold your heads high on your great season. Hey, 11-2 is nothing to be ashamed of.....some teams would kill to have had that kind of season record. Good Luck next year Raiders!

All I can say is....WOW! I was totally impressed with the fan support that showed up at Deer Park Stadium for the game. Lumberton came out in droves and that was a really neat sight to see. We couldn't have gotten that kind of support for a West Brook game if we taped five dollar bills to the seats. Our fan support SUCKS! Hold your heads high and be proud Lumberton, you and your fans have had a great season! ;D
