Sabine Pass travel for district game

[AggiesAreWe]

Looking on Mapquest, Sabine Pass will have at minimum a 3 1/2 hour (7 hour round trip) bus ride to their district game against Mt. Enterprise this year. Next year they will basically have the same bus ride when they visit Tenaha for a district game.

Thankfully this is just a football district. Would hate to see this district in all the other sports.

Deweyville and Anderson(Shiro) have the same situation in Dist.10-2A DivII.

About a 1/2 hour shorter ride for Deweyville, but still a 6 hour round trip.

[/quote]Yellow dogs are designed with AC and radios n cd players these days. It shouldn't be too bad.

7 hour round trip on a yellow dog, regardless of AC and radios, is bad. One trip I don't want to make.

[/quote]Well you guys know i dont really like the UIL but in defense of them its hard placing most small schools close together. its impossible to get it right on that level IMO.

Thats 7 hours doing the posted speed limits. Most yellow dogs have a max speed of 55-60mph no matter if they are new with a/c or older models. Wonder if they have enough backers to raise the money for a charter bus.

That's why I said a minimum of 7 hours round trip. With that maximum speed of 55-60 mph and having to stop at all RR crossings and maneuvering through towns, more like 8 hour round trip.
