LH Panther Mom

Hey Young Coach, do you know how old Vance is?  He looks to be about the same age as Danaher.  From what I'm seeing and hearing, the top contenders for PNG HC/AD are Garrett, Vance, Danaher.

I believe he is in his late 50's.

They are losing alot this year.

We lose a lot every year. 

Sterling 64, Liberty Hill 58

Well, heck.  Thanks!

Does anyone have the Liberty Hill/Sterling score?

I would be interested in the ratio of championships to actual High school's in each state.  Looks Like New Jersey has one for each district ;D

I wonder why the "East" schools don't have 18 'ships too? 

My understanding is that they are nominated by the local sportswriters, hence the "Sportwriter's All State Team." So it is up to the newspapers that cover those teams to nominate. The Orange Leader covers Orange County teams so that is why our sportswriters didn't nominate Rhodes. He should have been nominated by someone that covers Kirbyville, whoever that would be.

Unless the local sportswriters belong to the Associated Press, then they don't have a vote.  TSWA (Texas Sports Writers Assn) poll hasn't come out yet.

As I stated on the 2A All State thread, its as if to justify their "AP" polls.  They picked Canadian, Elysian Feilds, Tatum, and Crane etc... and then Bam! Those teams load up with all state picks.  Not just a coincidence.  They mystify me annually.

LOL!  That wasn't the case with the 3A selections.

I'm interested to see if Lake Travis lives up to the hype. 

I guess they did.  Dayton had a heck of a season from all I've read and should be proud of their accomplishments.  LT has a lot of hype in this area, year in and year out, but normally don't quite live up to it.

We are going! Go Panthers!

Cool!  The more, the merrier! 

GO PANTHERS!

Game time has been moved up to 4:00 pm.

I searched around a little, went to the Austin Statesman website and printed out the most recent articles about Giddings.  ALL articles mention Fitzhenry...(LaGrange...he rushed for 232 yards, Navasota...he rushed for 143 yards, Caldwell...he rushed for 227 yards, Smithville...he rushed for 187 yards)  This is a QUARTERBACK people and he is RUNNING, not throwing.  He has scored more touchdowns than the rest of the team combined.  He either has a heckuva o-line or there is no defense on the teams they have played.  (And THAT is hard for me to believe).

Oh, hello!  I could've told you that if you had asked nicely.    I've been told it's a "read" offense, for whatever that's worth.  I'm sure the 'Stangs coaches will have a plan of attack.

From what I saw last year, the offense is much different with Locke at QB, more passing, more balance with the running game.  But that's just a mom's view.

Hi Mom,  surprised to see you here.  Gonna learn our secrets.   ;D  Good luck to LH, and if our little, very little (& slow) dogs can win Friday, may you have your re-match.  In Huntsville!   

Haha!  I pop in from time to time, just because.    I already know all about the t-rex arms, so I can't imagine there's many more secrets. 

And....I'm rethinking the whole Huntsville thing.  Floyd Casey sounds MUCH better.   :-*

Whats strange is that i thought there would be more hype about the WOS/ Giddings game. Even on the other 3A sites, they arent hyped as much. ???

I figured it was probably one of the best matchups in the state. 

I'm expecting both Jasper and WO-S to win, and wouldn't be overly surprised for Kirbyville to win as well. 

Big surprise, I'm sure, but I think we will win. 

I hear Carthage is fast.  I find it hard to believe that they are faster overall than Cuero.  I've read some about Blackshire and he sounds very good.  Hopefully we'll be able to put enough pressure on him to force him out of his "game".  Our OL has torn defenses apart the last few games.  I know this will be the toughest game since Cuero, but I think we're up to it.

 

Although I agree, his future after high school should have been complete by now.  I mean, he was blessed enough to have gotten to the playoffs before he got hurt and petitioned to play another year.  I'm wondering...how would they tally yards and stuff for records since the average high school player only gets four years to play?

You have ZERO clue what you are talking about.  This is his FOURTH year in high school, the same that every other athlete gets.  He was held back from starting kindergarten, which is fairly common from what I understand.  UIL states a player who turns 19 before September 1 is ineligible - his birthday is in October.

TWhere is this one at? 

Hanby Stadium in Mesquite

because he petitioned to play this season when he should have gone to college...

Well, I'm certainly not a Giddings fan, but from everything I know about the situation, you really should verify FACTS before you post something like that. 

More:

Graham 20, Greenwood 0

Monahans 42, Snyder 31

WOW!!!!!!  :o  Good job, 'Stangs!

Cool!  Go 3A! 

Get muzzles for the parents! 

sorry panther mom, just used to that kind of stuff around here. 

Hey, no problem.  I've been confused a time or two myself. 

Hey Mom.  Good to see you around.

Thanks, JD.    I pop in from time to time, usually with nothing to say. 

that is the way to support your team panther mom. hope you dont have a kid on the team, i am sure he would love to hear your support.  liberty is going to surprise people. 

I'm not from Liberty.  I'm from Liberty Hill.  We're at the # 1 spot on the list, so there's no one ahead of us TO beat. 

> We could beat some of those teams ahead of us.

We couldn't.
