Athleticism on the football field isn't based solely on the ability to run fast, as is the case in track. The facts are this though: Woodville is a better football team than Crockett. Zack Martin had only 4 carries the entire scrimmage. Damichael Brooks touched the ball 4 times as well. One of Woodville's scores was a PASS. If we're such a terrible passing team, then what does THAT tell you about YOUR secondary? Lol Crockett went 3-9 this past season. They surrendered 40+ points five times. Lost to Coldspring (16-22; who also lost to WV, 34-6), Madisonville (21-59; WV lost, 22-30), Corrigan-Camden (21-22), and Hemphill (32-34). Not to mention the other blowout losses to Rusk (6-41), Diboll (16-54), Newton (8-71, and Garrison (26-41). I'm not really sure why you think Crockett has given you any reason to think they're a powerhouse or even a Tier-1 team in Region 3. I hope they succeed because I do have family and friends from Crockett. Good luck!!

I heard it was a little between both of the first two original viewpoints stated. Crockett is a good football team and should be better than last year. I think they'll compete for 2nd in their district. I do not, however, think they're as athletic or as talented (excluding the QB and DE) as Woodville. You're an idiot if you think Woodville's district is the weakest in the division. Look at District 1 and tell me that again. EC and OF will both be better than average this year. Much better than the district Woodville competed in last year. Just listen to the Lonestar Gridiron 3A-D1 Big Arse Preview Show. They'll give you a good view of what will happen if we meet in the playoffs buddy. Lol

Don't let the anticipation overwhelm you lol

Not yet. I'm running a little behind on them. Lol

Woodville RB/FS and unanimous 2017 District 11-3A D1 MVP Zackary Martin has committed to play for the University of Louisiana Monroe, according from a post on his personal Twitter account @Chasing_1Dreamm Congratulations to a great football player and even better young man!!

It was bumped. No longer scheduled. So we will settle for EC instead I guess.

Woodville had Newton scheduled, but had to bump them when the new districts were released and we were placed in yet another large district. Lol

I still stand by my first statement bout Martin being the best player on either team. At the same time, it is but merely an opinion. When I say Woodville is easily the favorite to win this district, it's not a knock on EC, who will undeniably compete for the title this year. Don't misunderstand me. The Bucs will be better than any district opponent we faced last year and give us a reason to worry. This is also probably the best team Woodville has fielded in the last 10 years lol looking forward to a great game!

Martin ran a 4.41 40 at TCU. I don't think CJ was anywhere near the threat that Zack is. A big loss, of course. But we return 1 DE, 2 OLB, 1 MLB, 1 CB, and 1 FS. All 6 of which recieved district honors. That's not too shabby lol and the players replacing them have alot of talent as well. We even return our kicker lol

Woodville returns 7 starters on offense, including their entire backfield. They also return 4 starting linemen. RB/FS Zack Martin is better than any player EC can field by a large margin, sporting his unanimous MVP selection from last year. The defense returns 6 starters, including reigning Defensive MVP, MLB/FB Marcos Broom. This is a team that was beating defending state champion Rockdale after 3 quarters in the 2nd round. Unless somethinghas drastically changed that I'm unaware of, they will be a tough cookie for EC to chew... and then some. EC has a great program and will no doubt be a tough game for the Eagles, as they always are, but Woodville is easily the favorite in this district after back-to-back district titles.

This is a good hire. Congrats to BU and Coach Bennett!

This is a little late, but SFA has offered 2019 Woodville RB/DB, Zackary Martin. Congratulations Zack! This is only the beginning! 2019/2020 are completely stacked on the 3A/4A levels in SETX!

**UPDATE** After further evaluation at Memorial Hermann, all signs are looking up. Surgery has not been ruled out, but is looking like much less of a likelihood than first thought. Thanks for the prayers!

Woodville senior and star basketball player, Christian Williams, was struck in the ribs during last night's game, causing what appears to be a full collapse of one of his kidneys. He is currently being rushed to Herman Memorial Hospital in Houston for emergency surgery. Keep the prayers and good vibes coming for this young man!

Not sure of a score. Woodville lost. Woodville star forward, Christian Williams, suffered a pretty severe injury during the game. No details are being released at this time, at the request of the family. Just please keep this young man in your prayers.

Bryant for Woodville is a solid pitcher. The Eagles are also very consistent at the plate, look good defensively, and have a high baseball IQ as an overall team. Central Heights is still the clear and easy district favorite, but I think Woodville is easily in the race for 2nd with Pollock Central and Garrison.

Woodville(16-8)(8-4) holds wins over #7 Leggett, #14 Newton, #4 Pollock Central, and Buna (RV) this year. Also finished seeded ahead of Newton in the playoff seedings. We can't even get a single vote? Lol tough poll I guess.

I didn't know it was that bad. Geez. Looks like BBCOR regulations have made highschool kids learn to actually swing with technique to develop power instead of relying solely on the bat.

I may be wrong, but didn't SETX see a drop in homerun numbers the last couple of years? I could very possibly be wrong. If I'm right, I hope that number is improved this year.

It impressed me that he scheduled the game, considering most teams seem to be casually avoiding a matchup with Newton this year. It shows me that his eyes are set much higher than a district championship. How was HJ last year?

I hate that we had to cancel. We needed a game like that against a powerhouse before district and the playoffs. Nonetheless, I'm still pleased with our non-district schedule.

I actually agree with you. They will be able to throw the ball better than we can, based on last year's evidence. I just don't see them stopping our backfield behind the offensive line we're brining back. I may be wrong. Definitely wouldn't be the first time. I know one thing for sure though; I'm much more excited about the competition in this district than I was last year's. Lol

I'm not disagreeing with that at all, trust me. That is a very true statement. I just think our rushing attack, along with our defense, are both good enough to beat out EC and the rest of this district. Area Round playoffs and beyond is a whole different topic, as we all have learned over the last two years lol

I think you just love picking against Woodville lol

As far as I'm aware, the same QB will start this fall. I wouldn't say he has been a weakness. I'd say say the lack of diversity on offense has been the weakness. He did a good job at managing the offense and doing what he was asked to do. It's hard to learn to become a gunslinger if your offense gives you little-to-no opportunity to learn how to do so. QB, RB, RB, OC, OG, OG, OT, TE returning on offense. DE, OLB, OLB, MLB, MLB, C, S returning on defense.
