What a poor excuse!!! Kirbyville is young and lost a ton of talent to graduation plus Diboll is a 3A team with allot more depth, what else can I say??? Just face it, Kirbyville was too much and last but not least, the better team.
Your right K,ville actually fielded two more Sophomores than Diboll did. I think the problem with Diboll is that they've been blessed with a lot of depth over the last few seasons( Despite a 485 enrollment which is very small for 3a) so, most of their underclassmen got very limited pt. They even have several seniors that are getting their first taste of varsity football. I agree that youth should not be an excuse for poor play, but it seemed the K,ville youngsters were more adapted to the speed of the varsity level than Diboll's. That should be accredited to the K,ville coaching staff. Diboll has absolutely no depth this year so, they'll be forced to take a different approach. K,ville was by far the better team in every aspect of the game. Good luck Wildcats, this east Texan will be pullin for ya, and hopefully my Jacks can turn it around.
