Woodville Eagles all set for 2025!

[Setx fan]

Woodville Eagles are heading into 2025 with a new HC after losing coach Rob who's been the most successful coach we've had. He's been replaced with coach Heath Clawson. Coach Clawson's head coaching career hasn't been super impressive but he's had a couple good years as an assistant at Aledo and I think he has some ideas that may work pretty well for Woodville. 

Clawson hired coach Clay Mayo as OC for 2025. Coach Mayo's resume doesn't look that great other than a year or 2 at Summer Creek but his son will be a good sized sophomore who might be able to help us out up front. 

Clawson also landed legendary coach Bill Hoppers as the 2025 DC for the Woodville Eagles. Hoppers has around 60 years coaching experience. Had a ton of winning seasons at A&M Consolidated and Navasota. Also has 6 state championship appearances and 3 rings. Would have loved to have him 10 or 15 years ago when he might have had more energy to put into it but we'll take him now as well.

Woodville retained 2 or 3 assistants from last year's staff and hired a couple new young coaches I feel pretty good about as well. 

Woodville players and coaching staff are ready to roll for 2025. Go Eagles! 🦅

What’s your early season prediction for the Eagles ?

I like our chances to finish top 2 in district possibly challenging Newton for the DC and probably getting a rematch against Newton in the Region 3 championship. I think whoever wins region 3 has a good chance to win it all but I got Newton as the favorite in region 3 right now

I’d say no one challenges either Newton or Woodville in district

Probably not but there are some other teams that might surprise. Trinity being the main one I'd keep my eye on
