As we move into the Spring sports, the UIL has wanted us to remind fans of proper behavior at games. I attended a University Interscholastic League update in late January. The UIL director shared there have been 13 basketball game-ending incidents involving players, coaches and fans. These games were suspended before completion of the contest. Discussion also centered on the growing number of fan ejections at UIL sporting events. These incidents are not good for UIL sports.

Nobody is perfect but no one wants to see any of these teams in the playoffs. I think they all deserve a little pat on the back especially the Union Hill Bulldogs who are giving up an average of 10 points a game but in reality they just had two close ones where as they surrendered a touchdown or less in most of their games. Gilmer BUCKEYES 8-1 Union Hill Bulldogs 8-1 Gladewater Bears 7-1 Harmony Eagles 7-2 Big Sandy Wildcats 7-2 Union Grove Lions 6-2 These other teams get recognition a lot but just WoW this county is getting it done!!
