Great for Simms-Bowie, another area team I grew up with and this has been a dream season for that little school with the cool stone historic stadium built in the 1930s during the FDR New Deal. The right side of the field.

This would be a Hickory, Indiana (Hoosiers) moment if they were to go all the way.



The Pirates practice in front of the school

Good news!

OFFICIAL: The 4A Division II regional semifinal between No. 1 Carthage and No. 2 Gilmer will be televised live across Texas on @BallySportsSW on Friday.

6 p.m. kickoff, 5 p.m. pre-game. @craigway1 on the call, @PaigeSchnorbach on sidelines, and I'll be on color.#TXHSFB

North Shore defense just too much for Cinco Ranch.

Rutherford did have a 46-yard TD pass to Seth Salverino and later added a 2-yard rushing TD to take a 14-7 lead in the 1st but after that it was all North Shore.

Rutherford finished with 16 completed passes for 169 yards and the 1 TD, 0 INT's

Now time to be a Lumberjack!

I tried not to laugh.

Dave Campbell's Texas Football -- Texas High School Football Program Rankings (Six-Year UIL Program Rankings Based on 2017-2022 Seasons)

This is a ranking of overall team PROGRAMS, not just won-loss records, and is based on number of state championships won, state championship appearances, won-loss record, and other criteria.

Watching Jamyron Keller here at the state tourney and wishing we could have signed him.

#1 Grayford defeats #2 Jayton 49-44 in OT for the 1A title

Hitchcock defeats Childress for 3A crown

Lipan defeats La POYNOR 48-44 for 2A title

I'll finish up the state championship scores for you, No-look.

6-A: Richardson Lake Highlands 55, Beaumont United 44

5-A: Dallas Kimball 69, Killeen Ellison 48

4-A: Oak Cliff Faith Family 70, Houston Washington 56
