Coldspring ranked 1 in 3A Houston area pre season by the chron, only noticed this because behind Sealy and 2 other schools Liberty was ranked 5th, so I would say a first place pre season rank is pub from the Chron  ::)

Where is Gilbert going to college? Surely with all this publicity he is getting some monster offers?

Congrats to the young man!!

I'm aware of the preseason previews....I was talking about stories or capsules of regular season games...There is usually only a score..(until playoff time)...I've seen other 22-3a game recaps, etc., but not much on Coldspring....Location is probably the biggest factor, however, if there is a team as good as Coldspring within your reader and delivery area I'd expect there to be a little more coverage....

Yep, he's avg 13.24 per carry and Monroe is right behind him at 11.1...Not a bad combo and there are a couple other backs that can come in and run the ball when needed as well..

[froom00]

Yeah they sure do.. #2 and #24 are both sophmores... CS backfield is graduate and replace... They have a stable of backs

The chronicle never really covers this area, until you make some noise in the playoffs. Then they jump on the bandwagon and call them "local" teams lol. They did it to coldspring last year and have done it to Dayton and brenham as well.

Yea, I made numerous calls to the Chronicle last year when Cody Cummings had more yards than anyone but not listed in the leaders.

[froom00]

Cody should have definitely got more pub last year..
