Getting ready to write summary for the Sun about the game and a few things I came away with
1) Crosby quarterback is legit and playing in tonight s game it tested his composure because NC has a solid defense, but a superb secondary. I saw left throw two bad balls. That leadership at qb is priceless.
2) Crosby o line is impressive , period. Jaiden had years to throw cause of them hogs up front. The no names rbs ( I say that cause Squirrel stole the show with skill and naming rights. The no names, 23 & 24 are good, but will get MUCH better with team success over the Manvel, West orange and PNGs.
3) new Caney is very young and very good    Could be very very good by playoff time or better yet in 2019.
4) Crosby will be he reason why Crosby goes one round or sniffs at—- Jerry world. Good night

It's sad to think those kids at Houston Kipp have to take a slam dunk beating continuously.  They need to sch some weak 2A teams.  I think Gd Oaks is 5A, but may only have Fr & Soph, but Kipp still in over their heads. 

I’ll never pick against Katy 

This is going to be a beat down, no offense LCM. I love you guys.

I was hoping to get a game on our bye week. Where is 14.2 at to tell us we are not worthy opponent. 

Crosby kept it very vanilla, didn’t show much in both scrimmages, the experiment with 23 should be over, 24 and 33 should be the featured backs, and 8 and 19 should be on the sidelines keeping the Gatorade cool. 4 and 11  but should be starting on offense with 84 getting major minutes. It’s go time, Jeff needs to take the gloves off. 

You are definitely correct, but it is still somewhat suprising.  It will definitely create more chatter until wos shows its teeth!

We can’t have posters calling out individual kids.  You are entitled to your opinion, just remember at the end of the day these are still kids trying their best. -PhatMack19

Oh yeah, Crosby is going to be a tough team to beat. QB is solid and can scramble, but need to work on that run game. That will come in time. 
I was worried about our run game after losing BJ Foster and Tamerik Williams, but those 3 or 4 rbs that Angleton have are all tough runners with good speed. I think we’ll be ok there. 
As far as injuries, I didn’t see anyone get hurt last night for both teams other than our TE #11 take a wicked shot going up for a catch down the middle and getting hit in mid air. He held on to the ball but came back to the sideline afterward. Looked like maybe he got the wind knocked out because the trainer really wasn’t working on anything on him so maybe that’s all it was. Well I hope so because he’s our QB’s favorite receiver. Anyway good luck to Crosby. To bad we won’t meet again because I think you all are in division 2.

Need some updates Crosby folks let us know how it goes

You do realize HISD Austin lost their qb ? A buddy of mine works there and said their freshman class has disappeared since the head coach resigned. They will have only 6-7 coaches and will start a 300lb DT at QB. tough sledding

PNG has a second lineman with a Notre Dame offer.  They have two very good runnin backs. I’ve heard they moved a few offensive guys to the Defensive side and RJ.  
The big question mark is WR.  I fully expect a very tough district, but i also fully expect it to be PNG and Crosby at 1 & 2 
nederland and BH could easily upset one or both. You never know. 
They’re all kids.

1. Crosby - On paper we won't have the high end talent of years past but as a Crosby fan you almost have to be giddy over the depth and pure athleticism the Cougars will put on the field. Two biggest question marks will be how the new DC covers up some of the size deficiency we have on the d-line and if Martin/Clay can supplement what we lost in the run game with Williams' graduation? Passing game should be even better than last year with the addition of Doucett. Crosby gets what might be their toughest test of the season right out of the box against New Caney who probably has the best secondary in the entire Houston area and will be the most athletic team on Crosby's schedule besides Manvel.
2. Barbers Hill - BH still has issues with physicality and speed. I'm picking them second because there isn't much of either in this district. I'm not a big believer in t-shirt football but BH's transfer qb carved PNG up during their 7 on 7 match in Crosby earlier this summer. He's a little thicker and mobility definitely won't be his strong suit but he can spin it, he should be BH's best signal caller since Kaleb Denny. If BH finishes any lower than 3rd in this district after missing the playoffs all together last year I think BH fans have to start asking how long "the process"  is really  going to take under TW?
3. Nederland - In a district that will be a week to week grind, Ned might just be the best grinder in the district. Without Latulas I really don't see Ned being able to score enough points to be a factor. However, they always seems to have just enough defense to salvage their season and make the most of it. I'm picking them 3rd simply because I think they'll beat PNG in MCM.
4. PNG - I'm picking them 4th because it's RJ, a lineman and nothing else. To call Crosby's 2017 defense trash would be a compliment, them Indians were right there with us though. Crosby got a new DC, brought back 8 starters from a young defense and added a couple of free agents to bolster the depth. I think PNG's plan for fixing their defense is just hoping RJ doesn't get hurt. Kid will probably end his high school career with close to 800 career carries, that's insane. That being said, you always have a chance with #2 back there pulling the trigger.
5. Dayton - To be honest I'm probably just putting Dayton here in the hopes that fans will start coming to their games again. Otherwise, Dayton's good 'ole boy network might finally get tired of watching them get handled by their traditional opponents during this alignment. Love Santee toting the mail but what happened to all those receivers Dayton used to grow on trees? On top of that, the Broncos had an even worse defense than PNG and Crosby and didn't look to have any reinforcement coming. Dayton is the true wildcard of the district, I think they can finish anywhere from 3rd to 7th.
6. Vidor - Four of the five teams mentioned above are just going to line up and throw it around the yard . . . while Vidor is still trying to figure out what a forward pass is, how to complete one and how to cover one. The Pirates have the type offense that can befuddle teams but I think pretty much everybody above(Dayton?)  has seen enough of it to mitigate any real problems it might cause. I just think the boys from the Boneyard will run out of gas covering go routes all district long. It's one thing to get hyped up for a bi-district playoff game, it's another to play those games every other week. Matthews just never changes anything, I think BH has shown change isn't necessarily a bad thing?   
7. Santa Fe - I hope people realize this isn't your mom's green Indians? If you get caught sleeping at the wheel you will get beat. Howard or Johnson should win the district MVP with the other being the fist team all-district qb. Kruger will be the second team all-district qb though. Santa Fe has good size on the offensive line and rather decent receivers for an average talent 5A squad. They too struggle on defense but they've also been in a district with Manvel and FB Marshall the last couple of years. To put it in perspective, they missed the playoffs because of a 7 point loss(48-41) to Texas City in a game they probably should've won.
8. Baytown Lee - I think Kiki Davis would probably lead the district in rushing this year if he didn't play for Lee. Woosley is an athlete at qb position and likely an FBS caliber talent but he also plays in GCCISD. Before we reach the halfway mark in the season Lee fans will probably be more interested in futbol than football, for whatever reason nobody in Baytown can get it figured out. Sucks for town that's just waiting for someone to get behind but with Baytown's studs starting to transfer to Crosby and La Porte if might get worse before it gets better.      

I just can’t see RJ behind that offensive line coming in 4th.

Here's the District 12-5A-II preview I put together for the Houston Chronicle.

Austin’s Qb is now at Ft Bend Marshall

Nederland's start in the last month of April until the start of the season..... 

Yeah, I think the top three will be close.
I've got:
1. Crosby 
2. Nederland
3. PN-G

Most people in our district will be unaware of how talented Crosby's QB is. He was awesome last season and he has had another year to grow as a QB. He will compete with Roschon to be the top QB in the district. It was such an epic battle last season in the playoffs. 

Yep, I think this is true. For what it's worth, I don't have PN-G winning the district or finishing runner up.

I hope united stomps st pius x and that gunnel kid!

Sorry to disappoint you guys but I had a chance to see shug thro the ball in 7 vs 7 and the kid is just not a good passer, he is not a threat when u take his legs away. Very good athlete and competitor but not a true qb. And I’m not hating at all just my opinion. 

The kid is what they call a "gamer".  You cant teach that.  He's special. His competitive spirit is on another level.
