Goes down in flames? Considering it was a runoff election already that was feverishly close 'til the end with only a difference of 366 votes out of 25,260, I don't know if that is a fair description.
According to UIL archives, the playoffs were created in 1920, when the all schools played for one ring and ended in a tie. Divisions were created in 1925 when 1A was created and then the "B" division was created in 1926 and only played to BI-District. Starting in 1928-1972 the "B" division played to regionals or Bi-district, it varied. By then the PVIL and the UIL had multiple divisions up to 4A.
Nederland won regionals in '42, and '45 and tied in the '44 regionals . They were undefeated both years ('42 & '45) with one tie in '42.
PNG won regionals in '34, '46 and 47. They were 9-2 in '34, undefeated in '46 and 11-1 in '47.
PA Austin won regionals in '43 and '47. They were 9-1 in '43 and 9-2-1 in '47.
PA (Which became PA TJ) - played in a division that went to State. Those teams are listed above.
Orange- (Precursor to WOS) had several good seasons in the 19-teens and 1920s but I don't see any playoff information. *EDIT* See playoff history at the top of the post*
Beaumont- Played in the 1A division once the playoffs were created so played the full bracket.
