That was 11 years ago. No telling how many Richland Springerites have died from freak cedar-chopping/Chrysler K-Car accidents in that time frame.

Number of high schools in Abbott, Texas = 1
Number of high schools in Travis County, Texas = 67 +
(found by doing two gooogle searches, and they aren't complete -- because the private school search list didn't even include Austin Hill Country Christian School)
Folks, I can guarantee you that the best athletes ... be they football, basketball, volleyball, or water polo ... are not searching for little private schools so they can run roughshod over small rural Texas public schools. You will get kids that may be decent athletes, but often wouldn't even be considered for subvarsity teams at larger public schools. Yes, there are some families who choose a private school when their child could athletically excel at a public school, but if you're planning to get junior a football scholarship, you'd better be at a decent size school.
And private schools who make their admissions decisions based on athletic ability (1) had better have some rich folks bankrolling the school (and I'm talking millions, not thousands), (2) a school population of parents and kids who are willing to let the "ringers" come and go as they please -- physically, athletically, academically, and behaviorably ... some do it, but they do it at their own peril.
Let's just play the stinkin' game.

You could drive around a city like San Antonio for an hour and find a kid good enough to get you in the playoffs, just gotta give him a scholarship. You're not gonna find many kids like Lajordan Wilkerson living in "nowhere" texas, pop. 253
Sixman was made for rural kids in small communities, not these club teams we're flooded with today. They have every right to play, but the playing field ain't exactly even, imho.

without a doubt it will be a good game, CP sees it like I do, one score ether way could be the difference.
I believe if I could track the extra points attempted and made for all the schools that would be an influencing factor in trying to rate some of these schools.

It almost cost our boys this week. That #12 from highland is a good kicker. He was 7 for 7. We scored 9 td's to their 7 and only won 62-56.CowboyP":l1j8g7fo said:

Yep, ur crazy, there is no way a private school can beat a quality public school by 45. Insane is probably the better word. How dare you!BigPapi":1te81kin said:
