That seems like a fitting way for CH"s last, slim, desperate hopes to die.

Opting down is not allowed.....you can only stay or opt up......
I seem to recall that Amarillo Tascosa unsuccessfully petitioned the UIL to play down a class some years ago.

That was horrifically mismanaged last couple minutes by Gilmer. Coaches got to drill it into the kid's head to go down if he gets the first, and then why you calling timeout to save Carthage from a delay penalty on the two-point try?

Refugio just scores on a 4th a 12 from their 18 to go up 25-21 with a little over 4 mins left to play
Announcers were losing their minds.
They going for it? They really going for it? You got all three time outs, 4 minutes left. You gotta punt here! .... uh, never mind.

Extra point makes it a two possession game. Why go for two?

Weren’t Clarksville and LK both in what is now Class 4A back in the 90s?
Yep.
Once upon a time Clarksville was in a district with Mt. Pleasant and Sulphur Springs.

Or Kaufman. Kaufman challenged them better than anyone else in the playoffs.
I don't know, man. It was a good gameplan executed well, but it was also like watching paint dry for much of the second half. I like that Silsbee gave FFA everything they wanted without making the game a snooze-fest.

Well a big Congrats to the Hirschi Huskies for getting to this game. They played admirably considering all the circumstances of this season. They beat Canyon to get here, then won their semifinal against a very good Boerne team also. Whoever matched up tonite in 4A against this King Kong Academy team was gonna lose. But Congrats to FFA also for playing quality ball all season long against some very high-talent teams and winning those games also.
If FFA didn't exist then they would've been losing to Carter or Silsbee instead. Hirschi was never winning state.

Are there going to be normal regional tournaments this year?

Don't think they will be back anytime soon. Talent pool is shrinking as the student count drops.
Yup.
This season is bringing to an end a streak of something like 33 or 34 straight trips to the playoffs, and most of those were district titles, and obviously some of those teams were necessarily led by underclassmen; you can't be "old" every year for that long. Talent has been declining and as you say the pool it's drawn from keeps getting smaller.
It happens. Hell of a run though.

Head basketball coach is also open at Clarksville.

You've got a 25 percent chance of winning the state title -- 50-50 in the case of the 1A and 3A teams -- and you tell me those kids wouldn't play without a practice or any games. They got that far, they want to finish it.
Oh, I'm sure the players and coaches would be keen to play given the opportunity. I'm just giving my opinion, after two months of rust it would be a joke to suddenly play out those final games. I do not think the season can be completed in any credible way now.

Not yet.
But if everyone got back at it on May 4th, you could finish the boys basketball tourney
I think that would be a farce, playing it after no games for two months and minimal practice. Would rather they just call it.

Honestly, I'm shocked it ever even started. You can agree or disagree with the need to cancel things, I'm not going to wade into that, but the "policy" that the UIL had announced this morning was CYA without the actual C. Either let everyone in and hold it as normal or cancel it. Kind of it doing it halfway isn't limiting your liability.

She was a regular over at texashoops before that place went defunct, as I recall.
Very sorry to hear about this. Rest in peace, BRF.

Plano, Lewisville, Rockwall, Commerce, and Cooper(?!). Now that's a hell of a district.

The Duncanville backup was a couple of notches better athlete and actually played pretty well under the circumstances especially since North Shore's defense was head and shoulders better than Westlake's
The Duncanville backup was dealt a better hand. He knew he was going to play all week and sounds like he actually managed to get on the field occasionally in mop up time this season. Looks like the Guyer kid's whole varsity career was a couple snaps in a single game in October.

Which school?

Bears score again to go up 27-7 with 9:24 left. Not much doubt left in this 'un.
-
Yeah, Winny's unconventional punt formation came back to haunt them.
-
20-7 Bears early third
-
13-7 Gladewater at the half.
-
There was some bad clock management by Sabine at the end of the first half leading to that long field goal into the teeth of the wind.

Think you're mistaken and both those teams lost in the state semis last week. I don't blame you though, the brackets as represented on maxpreps look pretty weird.
Looks like the Nevada's class 3A only has 20 schools in it. Must be a trip to know you only have to beat out 19 others to win state.
4A Division 1 State Championship: Chapel Hill versus Anna

Impressive performance by Anna. Honestly wouldn't have thought it was possible to blank Chapel Hill like that.
