Played Hull a few times in the playoffs back in the day. Can’t recall playing them in the regular season. Surprised me. Glad to always have Groveton on the schedule!

KirtFalcon Posted February 3, 2024 Posted February 3, 2024 Well, I see Garrison is not on the schedule ... usually a good game over the years .... 1

Well Alto usually isn't in that league .... and they have had a lot of success at higher classifications .... they aren't your average peewee league team .... 1

You’re right about that one. Last two seasons they’ve been well below average. Yet you’re still pining to play them.

Yet you’re still pining to play them. One season*. 2022 was pretty good. 3 losses by a combined 13 points to 2 higher division teams and in district to Tenaha by 1 point. Beat state ranked and undefeated Carlisle, 3 others in a higher division, and won the “on-the-field” district championship. Ugh and lol Anyways, last year….definitely “well below average” and then some. Edited February 3, 2024 by StingEmALTO

It’s so bad and far away from us. This year we will be in football shape come playoffs. Should be good games without a running clock 1

I didn’t realize their numbers were that low. Looked at their schedule from the last two seasons and they managed to win 8 games….more than us actually BUT our schedule was a wee bit more challenging. We are definitely in rebuild mode. We do have everyone coming back except one starting lineman and our QB. Incoming freshmen are talented with good numbers who won district as 8th graders. 7th grade won district as well. They’re on the way; we just have to be patient. I also think our numbers will be good enough to complete a JV season again. We should be back on track very soon.

RipperRipper Posted February 11, 2024 Posted February 11, 2024 Sting, it looks like you guys came out with a pretty good schedule. 1
MUSTANGMANIA Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 Just curious, did Alto lose any kids that may have changed schools during the two year hiatus that may come back? Any talent that may return? 1

Not anymore Alto was 0-10 awful I’d say year before that they were pretty good , but they need a lot of things to change for them to get any better they’ll be lucky to win 3 games this upcoming year if anything like last . By the way kids on last year team for Alto based on what I saw had a bit of an attitude problem. Edited February 20, 2024 by BLUE2314 1
KirtFalcon Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 This is Garrison's tentative schedule .... the North Webster (LA) game contract has not been finalized .....

The kids competed hard in the situation they were in and with that behind them, look out. They are flush with athletes. Trust me. 1

LL will need to reload but could easily find a way to win the DC as well. Feels like Tenaha, Grapeland, and Overton will be fighting for the final 2 playoff spots. Alto will need to rebuild from the ground up after last year. Heard Mount E had a change at Defensive Coordinator. Gilmer and West Rusk pedigree.

Bearcat95 Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 On 2/1/2024 at 1:41 PM, StingEmALTO said: Happens that way sometime. I’ll still contend that our ‘95 team who beat state-ranked teams in Groveton and Refugio before falling to Celina in the state championship could arguably be our best team. (NOT taking anything away from our state champs in ‘06 and ‘07! They got it done!) Matchups, talent, coaching, and a little luck go a long way in winning a championship. Those Chilton and Bremond teams over the years have been tough. Throw in Wortham and Golthwaite (state champs also!) along with perennial Mart and you’ve got . Makes Texas high school football what it is! Those guys were very good that year 1
