Per the title of the thread...EC wins this game. As for district crown...their is no returning champ since this is a new district in it's first season. No history = no champ. Good luck to all teams!

Seems like this game has been fairly close the past few years, and somewhat low scoring - I expect the same outcome this year: Panthers - 28 Cougars - 14 Good luck to both teams!

Panthers looked very impressive tonight.  Howard from Kountze was better than I thought, but Albritton definitely is the better back and has a better supporting cast.  Good luck to the Lions the rest of the way and Go AP!

Way to go EC!

Left with 6min left in the game, Panthers were up 56-14.

I also heard the Panthers will be replacing their helmet decals for this week's game against Kountze to the purple "N".

[quote name="whsalum" post="857370" timestamp="1285458017"] Not sure how long it will take to get this program turned around.The majority of this club is extremely young but they don't suit but 18 players with very few upper classmen.I hope more of the kids buy in to the young coaches philosiphy,if they do we'll start seeing a better program in Warren.This is a brutal district for a young club to be playing in. [/quote] There's no doubt the district is brutal, but after what's transpired over the last 2 weeks, I'd give anything to go back and play ball again.  Keep playing hard Warriors, and have fun doing it!

I only have one thing to say....LEGEND! How 'bout ya SETX, let's bring some championships home this year...

Panthers by alot...

Well, I found myself pondering, and wondering that all night. I'm a die hard Jaguar fan. I bleed Maroon and silver, but last night when I heard this news, this kid, his family, his teammates and coaches, all the fans were a part of me. My heart was heavy. I'm not an emotional person but this really touched my heart. This is to me, a wake up call. God's way of saying he's coming back. No matter who you are, no matter the age, no matter how young, He's real. I'm a true believer that God's got Reggie in his hands. And i know for a fact Reggie's in good hands. God is good all the time and never puts on us more than we can bare. He's always there. Reggie's in a better place. He was given to us to enjoy for a moment. Did you enjoy him? So graceful with the ball in his hand. Beautiful kid I never got a chance to meet. Thank God we had the brief moment to know him, hear about him, read about him. As people we hear about these things (young athletes dying). But last night it happened to us as a community, o our Golden triangle football family. To one of our kids. Did it open your eyes? Did it? Well, it's opened my eyes. from this day forward, I will enjoy every young man and woman from this community as they compete. i will enjoy them in victory or defeat. I will never take this or them (the kids) for granted again. Again, prayers from my heart goes out to the family of this truly blessed kid. May God comfort you in your time of sorrow.                                   [/quote] Amen...my thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

[quote name="ChampionEagles" post="848704" timestamp="1284673575"] This is like being on the playground at recess in the third grade, my dad can beat up your dad, no he can't either. Anahuac has improved as a team and program over where they used to be. People seem to think athletes populate one school district and are banned or something in others. This is a ridiculous statement. Proper training and motivation are the two biggest differences between like size schools in most years. Newton has had a program that they have adhered to for many years and it has proven that it works. Newton's coach Barbay always mixes and matches lineups during the first few games hunting the best way to build a team, not build stars, and this has proven to be very effective. Sometimes early on lineups don't work. Anahuac's coach Barbay has seen this strategy his entire life and I would assume in some way emulates it. On the night of October 29 we should see two good programs go at it. I think my Eagles will be ready by then and on track to improving play week in and week out. I imagine Anahuac will be doing the same. Good luck to both squads. [/quote] Well said and very true... Now, parking lot dude!!!! ;D

[quote name="SouthArise" post="848689" timestamp="1284671731"] So could Anahuac beat Silsbee? Anafanatic   [/quote] To be honest...yes

Newton is customarily rough at the start of the season. I also think people look at the score and assume it means Newton is not that good.  The truth is Kirbyville is likely much better than you think. This year's Kirbyville squad may well be as good as the K'ville peeps thought they were the past few.  (And that comment is not meant to be disparaging in any way.) [/quote] Yes Newton plays bad every 1st game of the Season, even in 98 when they won the state 3a title they had a terrible first game vs WOS, [b]I really think [/b] that Newton will be way to much for Anahuac and [b]I really think[/b] Newton will blow them out the water. Hope thats does'nt hurt your feelings but facts or facts The panthers have a long way to go before they are on a Newton , Kville , WOS type athletes [/quote] Don't get ahead of yourself there...everyone knows we have the athletes here that are on the same level as those other schools...maybe not as many as WOS cause there a bigger school, but K'ville & Newton for sure.  Why is it so hard for you just to say Newton may have a down year?  Do we not get the free pass where we always play bad in our first game too?

[/quote] That's the key word and could doesn't get the job done.  BC hasn't faced a defense like Kirbyville's as of yet in their 3 opponents.  BC scored 3 offensive TD's against Vidor who in turn gave up 7 offensive TD's to Kirbyville.  BC will have to create alot of turnovers to beat Kirbyville.  Sorry, but IMO I just don't see them keeping up with Kirbyville in this one.
