The Alto Yellowjackets (11-2A D2) will host the West Sabine Tigers (11-2A D1) this Friday at 7:30 in the home opener for Alto. The Jackets are coming off a tough loss at Shelbyville 43-12 while the Tigers fell to Tenaha 21-20. The Jackets are young and it shows. West Sabine has 8 returning starters on offense with 7 on defense, 19 lettermen returning with 5 lost to graduation; they are picked by Dave Campbell's Texas Football to place 5th in their district. The Tigers gave Tenaha a battle coming up just short of the win at home. The Jackets continue to show improvement from the scrimmages but with the schedule coming, need to grow up fast. Alto leads this series with West Sabine 4-1. Both teams are looking for that first win. Who gets it? ALTO VS.

The Alto Yellowjackets will travel to Pineland to take on the West Sabine Tigers Friday night at 7:00 p.m. The Jackets fell by 4 to Shelbyville while Tenaha won the battle of the Tigers 50-38. West Sabine returns 8 lettermen with 11 lost. Returning starters: O/D 6/3. Not much history between the two schools; best I can tell the series looks like this: Series Record 3-1-0 Season Winner Score 2013 West Sabine 28-10 DIS 2012 Alto 40-26 DIS 1993 Alto 48-8 DIS 1992 Alto 26-0 DIS The Jackets matched Shelbyville touchdown for touchdown, but the Dragons had 2 more conversions. (That series now stands at 17-3 Alto.) Many positives from Friday night…especially the second half when the Mean Sting defense made adjustments and held Shelbyville to a single score. Down by 19 and 20 points at separate times, the Jackets fought and scrapped their way back into the game and were driving when time expired, falling 48-44. The Jackets racked up 447 yards in total offense. Hope to take these positives into Friday’s game with the Tigers! Who ya got?

San Augustine will be the favorite in this district. Currently sitting at #9 in the 1A Div 1 polls. West Sabine should take 2nd...they are ranked currently at #20. I see Brookeland possibly taking the second spot or third. Brookeland and Broaddus will be fighting that one out. SA had a good win over Joaquin tonight 108-37
