Junior High Success = Varsity Success???

[sillyjeeper]

I'm curios whether success in junior high football is a reliable indicator of how successful the Varsity team will be? I'm interested in hearing about the current Gordon team's record from junior high, the past Richland Springs record, and any other successful Varsity teams records from junior high. Strawn? Benjamin? May? Others?

I remember Borden County when they had their run had dominated in junior high. Same with Westbrook, that Back to Back Westbrook team was undefeated both years in junior high.

Are there any other teams like this? How reliable is the junior high records for a successful high school record???

I think you can't put a lot of faith in JH or JV records in predicting varsity level success across the board. Now the quality of coaching at those lower levels can positively effect outcomes for sure. But schools playing sixman, outcomes can greatly vary depending on as little as one or two players and their development.

interesting thoughts
I agree one or two players moving in or out can be a big difference maker.

The current varsity team for Gordon has only lost one game since 5th grade and that was against Abbott by 8 points I think their freshman year

Curious when Ry Reed got there and has Walters always been there?

The current Water Valley varsity team has had very successful youth, and JH seasons. I believe starting in a youth program paved the way for success. Communicating with your High school coaches on what formations, defenses, and position terminology to coach, gives the players boost for success in JH, and high school.

The West Texas Youth Football program has helped several current top 10 schools have success. Klondike, Borden County, Westbrook, Water Valley are a few of those schools that have participated and competed well.
