Mannnnn! Why is a team Central Texas playing a team from Southeast Texas IN HUNTSVILLE!?

[Gasilla]

I agree... Weird!

Game was to be played at Moorhead in Conroe now at Sam H,  heres the tale of the tape

                      Moorhead          Bowers
West Orange        117 mi              143 mi
Giddings              100 mi              104 mi

For me I really do not see much of a differnce. round it off 25 more miles for WOS really the same for Giddings.

My statement was made more in response to why it was changed more than the length of the drive.

[MrUmp1]

I havent ask anyone but could be Conroe ISD needed the stadium for one of their teams or could be that playing at Sam is really great for the players to play at a very nice stadium. Both teams have new head coaches so could be something there too. I really like going to Sam myself.

I was told that it was the price of the rental. Bowers was cheaper than Moorehead. Go figure.

It's called a recruiting tool !!!!!!
