Luckily, I got into the stadium just in time to see that race. Bryan Bronson, WOW, what an anchor he did run!  

Records are made to be broken. But Jasper will always be the first high school team to go under 40 seconds.

my classmates in 1991 had the National Record with the first sub 40 time by high school runners ever.

Congratulations to Bellville! And to the Dawgs for a great season!

Too be fair… Silsbee was ranked #2 all season and undefeated… 

And to be fair, Jasper well may have played the toughest preseason schedule of any 4a team. Four defending state champions I heard.

yes sir.  

those 3 you spoke of were my classmates.  

Ben,John ,Terrence

Zach the uncle was a year behind us.

Counting that way makes FOUR to the NFL! Not shabby for a little East Texas town! Many much larger towns would be happy to have had one player make it to the NFL, ever! And as an aside, two kids that did not play football made it to the 96 Olympics in Atlanta. That same year, the newspapers in San Antonio, with a population of over a million, was bragging about having ONE athlete in the Games

Thats solely because of what happened in the Silsbee game already. Don’t read too much into it. 

I think taking the quiet approach is pretty much the Jasper way. Oh, we poke fun a little bit sometimes, but rarely seriously. Jasper has had too many very good teams get sidelined over the years. One of the very best didn't even get out of the district. That Jasper team sent THREE players to the NFL. Two lasted long term. One was an uncle to the Jasper Defensive Coordinator. No, Jasper fans know to pretty much keep the trash talk down.

I'm feeling 41-7 ish 

Make it 41-6 and I will tell you a story. Once upon a time, another 4 loss Jasper team met up with Bellville fairly deep in the playoffs. Same Regional Simis as I remember. Jasper of course not given a chance. Bellville had the famed Ernie Koy, Jr who would go on to star for UT and the NY Giants. Final score; Jasper won 41-6. But of course that won't help Jasper this time around........ Oh, if you want to look it up, the year was 1959. Just yesterday in my mind!
