  1. Lamar hosts high school basketball, baseball and softball games ever single year. So they’re definitely in the high school game. It’s different on Thanksgiving break.
     

    I was told Stallworth didn’t have staff available to work either. PNG is having to provide their own limited concessions at CE King because they’re limited on staff as well. 
     

    Jeff O’Malley is doing a great job at building relationships back up in the community and he realizes how important the high schools are here.

    Only Huffman and Livingston would be in that football district if they chose to opt up. Splendora is going 5A and Hamshire-Fannett is in the 4A DII football district with those two teams.

    If they stay in the same other sports districts in this next realignment, they wouldn't be with Bridge City, LC-M, Lumberton and Vidor. They would still have to schedule different middle schools and sub varsity for other sports.

    Wasn't aware the middle school districts were decided on yet. That's usually decided later. I was just going on what it is currently.

    Liberty would likely opt up with HJ. So HJ, Liberty, Huffman and Livingston would stay together like middle school. HF also currently plays in the middle school district with those four.

     just because you work at HJ doesn’t mean you are right lol, it’s a uil thing it’s a div 1 and div 2 thing. Seems like a soft move out of bass’s play book if you ask me or whatever playbook they have 

    Where I work has nothing to do with this, and I didn't think this was a right or wrong situation. It doesn't affect me in anyway. Schools across the state have opted up for years. 

    I'm called biased for my PNG background and now HJ lol. My parents went to TJ. Grandparents to Hemphill and Orange. So let's throw some more in there haha. We'll leave out the cousins a HF, Bridge City, etc.

    I agree but what's to gain? besides thinking it will be easier opponents which it won't necessarily be...

    Makes scheduling a little easier. You can line up things for varsity down to junior high.

    It's also nice to compete against teams in middle school/junior high all the way up. My middle school district was Groves, Port Neches, Woodrow Wilson (Lincoln), West Orange, Bridge City, Little Cypress, Mauriceville. We moved up to 5A, but when we dropped back down my junior year that's who we played again. 

    I don't have a strong opinion or another, but the UIL has allowed this to happen in the past. Until they stop opt-ups for any reason, this will happen.
