Burkhart and the Coyotes win because they put in the work to win. If anyone is upset about that, they need to work just as hard, or harder than, Richland Springs. It's not magic. I pity those who just sit around crying about how "unfair" it is that one team is successful and another one...

I'll always treasure a Facebook post from a homeschool mom: "Congratulations to the Stephenville FAITH Knights, TCAL State Champions -- How's THAT for Socialization!"

This is an interesting topic. I've never seen a correlation between good facilites and success on the field. I have noticed that really bad facilities almost always mean a bad team. I guess it reflects a "don't give a rip" attitude in the town. But I've also noted that places with really...

Here's my understanding of the situation. The kid who scored that last touchdown is a two time all state starting running back. He had hurt his knee the week before and had tried to go in the state game. The knee wouldn't cooperate, and the kid stayed on the sideline til late in the game...

Well said, 13. It's really nothing mysterious about having a successful program. It's a rare thing though, because it is such hard work to get there. By the way, has anyone noticed that the head coaches at Richland Springs, Stephenville, and Stephenville Faith, all State Champions this year...

Faith, big and early. Nobody in TCAL has the horses like Faith.

It's perfectly fine and fun to debate which team can do what, and which kids can really bring it on the field. What's frustrating for a homeschool team like Faith is that TCAL is the only league that will let them play. And a UIL team whose coach's livelihood is on the line can't risk...

There are more important considerations than athletic participation in families deciding to home school their children. Stephenville High is very good, and so is Stephenville Faith. I can see how someone who has never seen them play might be incredulous as to just how good they are. The three...

I have seen Stephenville Faith playand Cherry 5 is probably exaggerating. I only see five of their players definitely starting for any team in the state. The next three would be iffy if we're talking about a top UIL contender. I would say that at least three of their starters could walk over...

Stephenville Faith just pulled off a huge victory over Gordon, and it was not a fluke. Watauga Harvest will be fortunate if the game goes the full four quarters.

Regarding all-time winningest programs, how far back do you want to go? And are we just talking UIL? There are some newer private school programs (2-3 years) that probably have a winning percentage of over .600,

Stephenville Faith won it all last year, and they have everyone coming back, so you're probably not going to get a lot of discussion on this topic.

Stephenville Faith homeschool won TCAL D2 last year, and they literally have everyone returning.
