August 2, 2010 Mustangs hit the field to start season Van Wade The Orange Leader WEST ORANGE — Football practice finally rolls around and what was waiting on the players - just one of the hottest days of the year. Though all of the local schools kicked off their 2010 campaign in the early morning hours, temperatures had reached the mid-90s by 11 a.m. Over at West Orange-Stark, it was business as usual for the Mustangs as they accomplished the Mustang Mile, hit the weight room and then battled the heat by running up the stands at Hooks Stadium. It was just another day at the office for long-time Mustang coach Dan Hooks, entering his 30th season as the head man in Mustang Country. “Thirty years, man, the years have flown by,” said Hooks, who owns a 269-68-2 mark in charge of the Mustangs. “We’ve seen a lot of faces come and go but this day, it’s always exciting. You get that little summer break but this day is always on the back of your mind for the coaches and the kids. We’re excited about kicking off another year.” Over the years, more challenges have awaited coaching staffs on that first day. “Years ago, you didn’t have to worry about the conditioning part of it so much because kids would always be outdoors all summer doing all kinds of stuff,” said Hooks. “The last few years, kids these days, they like to stay indoors a whole lot more, which means they come in out of shape. They know who they are and you can tell who they are in the first 30 minutes. We know we’re not the only ones in that boat and everybody will get there in the next couple weeks.” One thing for certain, the Mustangs will be put under fire in their two scrimmages and non-district schedule before the District 20-4A campaign rolls around Oct. 8 at Hamshire-Fannett. The Mustangs will visit Dayton Saturday, Aug. 14 with the freshmen starting at 5 p.m. followed by the JV (6 p.m.) and varsity (7 p.m.). WO-S will host Vidor Thursday, Aug. 19 at Hooks Stadium with the freshmen starting at 5 p.m. followed by the JV (6 p.m.) and varsity (7 p.m.). “That will definitely test us early,” said Hooks. “We’ve had some great battles with Dayton over the years that have really helped both programs to get the season going. Vidor, they’re always big and physical and they got after us last year. We really couldn’t have asked for two better scrimmages.” After that, the Mustangs dive into arguably one of the toughest non-district schedules in the state, especially on the 3A level. WO-S opens the season on the road against old 4A rival Nederland Aug. 27. Then its off to Friendswood to face a 4A program that made it to the Region III Finals a year ago on Sept. 3. After a week break, the Mustangs welcome old nemesis Jasper to Hooks Stadium (Sept. 17). Next up will be 3A power Giddings Sept. 25 in Conroe and WO-S will wrap up their non-district slate with Kirbyville Oct 2 at home. Kirbyville has been the state runnerup in Class 2A Division I the last two seasons before moving back up to 3A this year. “By far, this is probably the toughest schedule we’ve ever faced,” said Hooks. “The 2000 schedule (the year the Mustangs went 15-1 and were state 4A runnerups) was pretty close. But heck, we still had close to 1,000 kids in school then. Now, we have under 700, playing schools like Nederland and Friendswood. One thing about our kids though, they always like challenges. Hopefully we’ll come out of all of this healthy and with some quality winds under our belt going into district.” Over at Little Cypress-Mauriceville, the Bears look to improve on their 4-6 mark last season in Coach Randy Crouch’s first year. LC-M has two road scrimmages set. The Bears will face Brazoswood at Deer Park Stadium Saturday, Aug. 14 with the freshmen starting at 5 p.m. followed by the JV (6 p.m.) and the varsity (7 p.m.). LC-M will then venture to Silsbee Thursday, Aug. 19 with the freshmen starting at 5 p.m. followed by the JV (6 p.m.) and the varsity (7 p.m.). LC-M will be the first Orange County team to start the season as the Bears will take on Goose Creek Memorial Thursday, Aug. 26 at 7 p.m. at Baytown’s Stallworth Stadium. The Vidor Pirates, who made the playoffs out of 20-4A last year with a 7-4 finish, scrimmage the Orangefield Bobcats at 9 a.m. August 14 and then face the WO-S Mustangs at 6 p.m. Aug. 19. The Bridge City Cardinals, who made the playoffs as the third-place squad out of District 21-3A last year with a 7-4 mark, will scrimmage at home against Lumberton Aug. 14 with the freshmen and JV starting at 9 a.m. followed by the varsity at 10 a.m.  Bridge City will then venture to Jasper for a scrimmage Aug. 19 with the time yet to be determined. Bridge City will open its 2010 campaign at home Aug. 27 against Shepherd. The Orangefield Bobcats, 4-6 a year ago in Coach Brian Huckabay’s first season, scrimmages Vidor at 9 a.m. Aug. 14 and Huffman Aug. 19 with the location and time to be determined. The Deweyville Pirates will look to improve on their 1-9 season a year ago. The Pirates will scrimmage at Hamshire-Fannett Aug. 14 at 11 a.m. and will host Buna in a scrimmage Aug. 20. Deweyville will open its season Aug. 27 at home against Sabine Pass.

[quote name="Betrayed" post="823192" timestamp="1281038459"] I know! I was being funny dude. It was Splendora [/quote] Well, to be honest with you, it sounds funnier losing to Splendora than losing to Spurger. Spurger is a pretty good team and actually has beaten the likes of Splendora over the last couple of years.

Souldn't it just be 4 more years since he is a freshman and you obviously don't know where he lives. Everybody technically "lives across the tracks" in China and Nome. [/quote] :D :D :D :D Betrayed, red2red, red2black or Swagg you just got Swag Slapped!!!!!! [/quote]  Perhaps he should "check himself before he wrecks himself" As far as having players of the year and all state players, it takes an effective coaching staff to either make it happen  or let it happen.  Many of those playing decisions were made because the players learned it somewhere and it was not at the Nome Gym. [/quote]Joke of the day. I guess it started in athletics huh? That's where the real teaching takes place. You might can fool this board but u can't fool us who really know!! First year that staff didn't have 1 of those All state players they lost in the 1st round to Spurger. Then the players across the tracks come thru and now their all of a sudden have the best staff in Texas. Wow, numbers don't lie!! [/quote] Uh, HJ has never played Spurger in the playoffs. ::)

[quote name="jayhawk" post="823151" timestamp="1281032028"] Caught the last half of  Dayton football practice today and was impressed. QB (Herrera) although still small has grown and put on 15 pounds and is slinging the ball .Made some nice long passes for TD's in fact while I was there nobody  missed a pass the kid is very acurate  and with  our host of proficient recievers we will tear up some teams with average secondaries. X Baldwin looked great as expected and caught some passes in traffic for TD's as well as J Deiasbour  never fumbled and caught passes in traffic for TD's if he runs to his potenial his running game will take this team to the next level. (scary) . Another kid ran some out of the backfield I think his name was Mcbride must of been JV last year (stocky and fast) looked good.  We've got the weapons for sure and looks like were going to be off to a fast start unlike last year when it took us a few games to get up to speed. With the big men Booth and Wright and supporting cast I look for a very,very deep run in the playoff's this year . GO BORONC'S ~~~~ [/quote] Sounds like the offense could be very good or the defense could be very bad for the Broncos this year. ;)

I don't believe there is a scoop.

[quote name="A Bear's Bear" post="822971" timestamp="1280958445"] LCM's varsity has more kids than it has in a while; last year they had 12 seniors this year's team looks close to 20...Coach Crouch has done a good job both in keeping the multi-sport boys in football, [b]as well as winning some over some of the south Little Cypress kids from WO-S (WO-S is an open district, while LCM cuts off at about I-10.  Earl Thomas and James Haynes, for example, both lived in Little Cypress but went to WO-S in high school)[/b][/quote] Just call'em beggars, robbers and thieves. ;D Just kidding guys. I am quite sure lots of kids in that area want to play at WOS.

[/quote] I agree with sports guy, Silsbee looks terrible. Probably the smallest, slowest team they have fielded in years. The actual number was 18, not 20. Oh, I forgot to add this:  ;) ::) ;D

This Saturday at Silsbee High School: Silsbee Lumberton PAM West Brook WOS (btw, Silsbee=Domination) ;D
