69 North...past Jasper, Center....near the Louisiana border...right?

[quote name="team first" post="1178582" timestamp="1329327264"] If both coaches agree that the game is for the district Champ, then it could be played as the district championship game. But since both are not agreeing to play it that way, it is only for seeding purposes only. With both being Co-district champions. [/quote] This is how I understood it also...

But if Central wins again then it will be 3-1 and dominant in the series.  Either way, it seems that you dont get a true resolve!  So I vote "no play" and pick up a meaningful harm up game. [/quote] Seriously? Pre-District games don't count! If they play, then the winner will be [b]THE District Champions[/b]. It's THAT simple! Plus the only vote that matters on this issue is the vote between the coaches, and they will settle it sometime today. [/quote] Wrong. If they play, the winner is the #1 seed. It goes down on the books as Co-Champs. Any trophy or banner displayed would have to say Co-Champs. [/quote] Wrong. District 20-4A changed their rules from 2 years ago. The winner of the play-in game (or if a team concedes) will be the District Champs, and the loser will be declared as the District Runner-Up. [/quote] I don't think that the districts can make that call.  Isn't that a UIL issue? It should be universal across the board, right? I've never heard of them doing it that way... ???

[quote name="stevenash" post="1178536" timestamp="1329323518"] While the district title is a significant one, the more meaningful/significant title is still in the near future. [/quote] 8)

Whats with all these SHARING of district titles around these parts, BLUEDOVE? HJ and Silsbee, then Central and Nederland...

[quote name="east texas bb" post="1178454" timestamp="1329318058"] It may say for playoff seeding, but everyone would know who the outright winner would be, either HJ or Silsbee but you would know.  That would be my point. And I dont see why it has to be for seeding only, arent district championships important?  Sorry Dickie, cant agree with you on this either. [/quote] It's not an agreeable point, its the rule! They are BOTH considered district CO-CHAMPIONS...Matters not who would have won the seeding game..Yes, I understand your "bragging rights" claim, but the books will read 2012 CO-Champions.. 8)

[quote name="east texas bb" post="1178446" timestamp="1329317573"] I dont understand why they didnt play the game out.  I would get tired of being co-district champs, I would want the title alone.  Kind of like kissing your sister. [/quote] Well, they would be Co-champs, regardless...If they had played, it would be for playoff seeding only.

[quote name="stevenash" post="1178422" timestamp="1329316179"] Congrats to the Hawks for having the top average score in district play and giving up the fewest average points in district play, not to mention the largest average margin of victory.
