Titans roll to 11th straight win, taking control of this district

I think png home grown football stud head coach Matt Burnett got an extra 10 years before the excitement of his '99 state title finals appearance wore off before he got the boot.

Rarely see or hear them at school board meetings either......🤐

Most of the coach critics were\are trash youth league coaches & too embarrased to put their record or real name out here.😎

He is the new director of high school relations at UT.

Anahuac has a very solid team, should be a good district race between them, OF & Buna.
