Congrats to Orangefield! 

Why do I have a hard time imagining that Hardin is the same size as the other 3 teams in this district? 

It's really not that big of a difference.

Orangefield 499

Buna 455

EC 434

Hardin 337

Orangefield will more than likely move back up to 4A at the next realignment.  The freshman class in OF is the largest class to ever come through at around 170.

Very talented group coming up next year, freshman class now is pretty good too. They might struggle some next year because they'll be very young, losing 6 talented seniors this year will hurt for next year but having two starters returning should lessen the blow. Some of the young kids will have to step up, I'm guessing 3 to 4 sophomores and a couple freshmen could see varsity time next year.

With all that said, two years from now Orangefield will have a solid nucleus for the next 2-3 years. Very similar to the senior class that led them to a district title this year, but we'll most likely be back in the 4A ranks.

162 kids.  The only reason Hardin competes with these teams is the history of Hardin girls basketball.  One hell of a tradition

Orangefield knows all about being the small school in district.  Previous two years we were competing against schools with 400 to 500 more students.

    • Or a less lethal option would be to have law enforcement yell improper pronouns at them...they'd scatter like sheep. I still prefer your way, lol.
    • I ve seen this done in several other countries.  And in those countries it happens very lil because of the severity of the consequences.   I saw a video of other world leaders ask “why does America allow such destructiveness” when all the civil unrest was happening because a criminal/criminals were killed  by not following commands.     we have a great system in place but it’s been compromised and we could still learn from other countries.
    • I am out of VOTES, but I will give a BIG AMEN!!!!
    • You start opening fire and drop about 10 or 12 of these protesting morons it will break up pretty quick.    This ties in with killing the chicken killing dog.
    • This is an easy one. We have let grifter unqualified coaches infiltrate our children and convince them that they will be D1 athletes if they only focus on a single sport. We've got kids, with single digit ages, playing their sport year-round to "maximize exposure" despite the fact that most college coaches on the recruiting trail will value a multisport athlete. This translates to the school year and ends up with kids being football, basketball, baseball only kids. Track is pretty much the only one left that keeps kids playing other sports and that's primarily because football coaches demand their football kids be track athletes. I literally talked to a man last night, who just moved to Texas from Oklahoma who was telling me his kid played on two different football teams during the season last year. One for his school, one for his select league. During the week the kid was a RB for his school, and on the weekends, he was a QB for his select team. This would equal 7 days a week of full contact football for a 6th grader......6th grader. Once that ends, rolls straight into 7 on 7 for the spring and back to football in the summer. All this for a kid, who seems to be a good athlete, but probably has a ceiling of D2 at best, if he doesn't burn out before that. Parents are silly and think they can develop their kids into being the next Quinn Ewers, but they completely miss the biggest factor in creating that type of athlete.....genetics. Genetics are undefeated. Always have been, always will be. Play sports because you love to compete then compete in everything you do. Quit giving bullsheet rings to "state champions" every single weekend all over the US and get back to valuing team championships won at the community level to build the continuity when they are young. This is the only way to reestablish the pride once felt by every kid in every town across Texas when they got to put on a uniform with their school colors. Otherwise, we can kiss the magic of high school sports goodbye.
