How bout some middle school football

[Raiders94]

I know everyone is ready for football, how do you think your middle school will do?

[Bigcam2903]

Go Odom Wildcats!!! Haven't watched them in a few yrs since my boys moved on to Ozen. I will catch them against PA this year. Always good talent there

[BMTSoulja1]

I'll be following Silsbee MS football team. Go Tigers!

[MAYFIELD]

I will keep up with borh CO Wilson and Central got to support the kids so i can know our future players.

My oldest boy is going into 7th this year.  Will be at Higlands Jr in Baytown. I have to root for them but I don't see much coming out of the season other then him getting some school ball experience.

Be on the lookout Neel (rb) for the 7th TJ Titans......coming to a stadium near you.

With that this years Titan Freshman team is loaded with linemen, size, skill, speed all over on both sides of the ball

[HAWK85]

BC 7th grade will surprise some this year ....big group with a couple of talented backs

I've been in the oven all summer lifting weights with my little cub, a.k.a the garage with no fan or a.c. Hopefully when I pull him out for the fall he's ready to eat. I'm tired of hearing about what he wants to do to Dayton after they got it put on them last year. He's coming back over an inch taller came almost 15lbs heavier so hopefully the work pays off in the now 3 rivalry games we have.

Can't wait to see what the Silsbee 7th grade has. I know the Silsbee 8th grade will be solid!!!

[MAYFIELD]

I hope we get a lil more size out our middle school, I think the youth league has started also

Dayton 8th grade A team will be looking at an undefeated season. And will put it to the cougars again.

They will go undefeated

BellBiz30,  does Dayton play Highlands?  When do they normally have a schedule for the middle schools?

[jordibug15]

Lumberton's ms is usually pretty good

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Lumberton's ms is usually pretty good

I have heard that before but never asked this question: what happens when they get to the HS??

[queenb77630]

I know that the WOS 7th grade moving up to 8th grade this year will be one to look out for.  My son has now moved onto High School so I will be looking here for updates on how the Stallions did.

 

Cougar: Trust me when I say that the size of the kid does not matter.  My poor little skinny kid had coaches and players looking at him and I actually heard them say he's nothing; he's too skinny.  Then the game started and they were on their backs or flying through the air when that skinny kid tore into them.  Good luck!

I've always tried to figure that out.

Lumberton has one middle school where most schools have at least two. Lumberton looks good until the other towns merge in high school.

That's true didn't think about that

Yes they play highlands again this year.

BellBiz30 the schedules are up on the dayton is website.

I see that Lumberton's 8th grade O-Line seams to be as big if not bigger than there varsity O-Line.

If your competition sucks then you're right, size doesn't matter. When North Shore and Dayton are on your schedule it matters a lot. A 5-10 175 lb kid is going to get the nod over 5-5 125lb kid ALL day long if athleticism is equal. That's just the way it is, middle school and beyond. Do you need to be big? Of course not but when you play schools with 400-500 kids in a single grade you won't see much of that small guy throwing big guy around otherwise that kid is probably on the B team.

[Raiders94]

That's true.
