Thought San Augustine would have been a better match than they showed last night. 39-7 with about 2 1/2 minutes to go in the half with Newton on the San Augustine 30 yard line and Newton nelt down on the ball to keep from running up the score. Newton played their second team the second half and their QB hurt his knee and did not suit up the second half.

DISTRICT STANDINGS

kIRBYVILLE    2-0  beat Shelbyville and Hemphill

NEWTON        2-0    beat Woodville and San Augustine

SHELBYVILLE  1-1  lost to Kirbyville and beat Woodville

WOODVILLE    0-2  lost to Newton and Shelbyville

HEMPHILL      0-2    lost to San Augustine and Kirbyville

22A - third place will be a toss up between Woodville, Hemphill Shelbyville and San Augustine. San Augustine beat Hemphill last week by 4 points. Hemphill led at half and San Augustine came back in the second half to win. Ist place, Kirbyville, 2nd place, Newton, 3rd place, San Augustine.

  As far as who is the strongest between 22A and 23A, Kirbyville is probably the best team in the state in 2A. Pity who draws them in bidistrict.

  However, I'm the guy who thought WO-S would wipe Silsbee out to.

LC-M will have about as many points as they have fans in the stand.  Not very many....

  Is it true that the state is changing the signs coming into Orange that now read "DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS"  to "DON'T MESS WITH WO-S".

  The question is not "will Silsbee win?" but "will Silsbee even score".

  Not downgrading Silsbee but no other team in this are is in the same class this year with WO-S.

  We have two teams that will go a long ways in the post season, WO-S in 3A and Kirbyville in 2A.

If HJ can get those referees that Diboll had then it may be a close game. Newton lost their safety who is one of the leading tackers on defence, broke toe, out 4 to 6 weeks.

Barbay will not run the score up on anyone on purpose. He will play in second team most of the second half.

Newton 42  HJ  7

No, the coach did not do the right thing. He should have well know before the game that he had an inelgible man. That's part of his job. There was a breakdowm in the school system. The coach let the whole team down.

What the heck does this have to do with high school football?  ooh, I forgot, their is the Mustangs, yes, put your money on the WO-S MUSTANGS. WIN, PLACE AND SHOW.

Fans are a very important part of the football program. When the kids see and feel the large crowds, they are impressed to become a part of a program because of the fans and people in the community supporting that program. When the fans disappear the program goes down hill because kids are not interesting in the program..Kids are the future of your program.  Thats why programs like WO-S, Newton, PG, Nederland, etc... keep reloading. The kids will tell you at Newton that "when you play football at Newton you are somebody".

  Very sad to see such a small turnout, especially at home. There were a lot of kids sitting on the PN-G side of the stands and were probably impressed by the large vocal, spiritual, crown that was supporting their team. It has a big bearing on how many kids come out for football in the future. It's surely not the only reason or the main reason for winning but it is an improtant part of the program.

  Very hard to get it back once you lose it..

PN-G rips,tears, runs, passes way to hugh victory with devistating and impressive performance over LC-M. final score -PN-G 28 LCM 27.

Newton at Hardin-Jefferson    Friday Oct.3    7pm

Newton had the teachers report today, students report tomorrow the 18th.

Newton has put in a new defence this year and this is the second game they have run it. They were out of position in the first game. Once the kids learn this defence they will get better. They still have a ways to go. By district Newton should be a lot better team.

Other than a couple of EC fans coming to the Newton side and mouthing off about how bad they were going to beat Newton and Newton better get ready for the payback, the rest of the fans were polite and courteous to Newton. I'm sure we have the same few fans that mouth off too.  EC surely has a good program and a good football team.

EC, you surely gained my respect.  GOOD LUCK THE REST OF THE YEAR.

should be a track meet.  Jaspers defence looks weak. If they shore it up, Jasper may take this one.  Jasper 47- k-ville 35

just called the coaches office and one of the assistant coaches said that he thought the Newton/EC game was still on and was still to be played in EC stadium. Not sure untill I talk to the head coach. I know the boys haven't practiced this week and are out of school tomorrow.

Kirbyville at Jasper has been cancelled

Newton/E.Chambers is uncertain but I have heard that if it is played it will be in Newton because E.C. field is now yet finished.

................................... ""and the mighty Casey has just struck out"". and to think Gilmer lost 16 starters. A team that last year got wiped out by Liberty Hill 38-13.

Shows you just how tough this class 3A is. 

Actually, this was a thursday night game which is the same as a scrimmage and doesn't count. Had it been a Friday night game, Jasper would have taken them...hUMMM

is Jasper playing next Th. or Fri. night? Watch out K--ville if it is Fri. night.  Hummmm.

Could go to overtime-  GO K--VILLE CATS

Gilmer lost 10 starters on offense and 6 on defence. Jasper 41-21    Go DAWGS

don't judge Jasper by this one because Gilmer is down. Jasper will roll.  Go DAWGS.

''''who let the dogs out"""who let the dogs out"""  sickum,,sickum""""

Isn't wildcat4life the one who last year said that k---VILLE would destroy WO/S. I saw that game and they showed WO/S by scoring a touchtown on them. Maby they will score one on Jasper too.

  Here are some excusses for wildcat4life.

It was the referees

we had our star player out

it was luck

if we would play them again we would beat them

two of their tds should have been called back.

they snuck some college players in on us.

Good job EC, Ft. Bend Baptist is a good div.2 parochial school that lost 6 starters on office and 6 starters on defence and had a fantastic 3 - 7  record last year.

Newton vs Coldsprings

Very even scrimmage with varsity. Scrimmage was Newton 2 and Coldsprings 1 but Coldsprings was ever bit as good as Newton. Played one half 7-6 Newton. Not saying Newton won the scrimmage.  No one wins a scrimmage.

Newton JV 5 tds to 0.

Coldsprings has a middle linebacker who also plays running back that is a one man recking crew. Very good. I think he is going to Tx. Tech. If you play against him, you will come to know him.

Good luck Coldsprings, you have a good program going.

Yes, Newton was a scared to death of EC last year. I know how you massacured Buna last year. And, Buna game Newton all they wanted. Lets see now, what was the scores between EC and Buna and between Buna and Newton?

We are scared to death this year of EC.

sounds like someone needs to go play games and leave the coaching to the coaches. Maby if he runs for the school board his son can play.

Throw him a crying towel.

Newton vs Center  scrimmage

Newton J.V. 5 TDS    Center 0

Newton varsity 2 TDS  Center 1 TD

one quarter - game conditions-  Newton 7  Center 0 . Newton looked really good running the ball and the defence was really good.

I think we are ahead of where we were this time last year.
