This is not good. I see this up coming season as a disaster.

So STJFL has just 4 teams now? Beaumont, PA, Jasper and Silsbee?

This will be the game thread for all the state championship games except for Kountze and West Brook. They will have their own individual game thread to post updates. Here is the UIL link for the Boys Tourney: [Hidden Content] Thursday schedule 11am 1A DII Jayton vs. Bryson 1pm 1A DI Perrin-Whitt vs. Valley 5pm 2A DII Lipan vs. Martin's Mill 7pm 2A DI Hearne vs. Meyer

To expound: UIL handed out punishment following the fight in the Hull-Daisetta/Burkeville game Feb. 11. The State Executive Committee of the University Interscholastic League met Wednesday to issue penalties for potential UIL rule violations. All student-athletes involved in the altercation between Burkeville High School and Hull-Daisetta High School are suspended from all UIL activities for the remainder of the 2024-25 school year. This does not reduce any prior suspensions given to student-athletes by each school. Burkeville High School Head Basketball Coach Aaron Hallford, Hull-Daisetta Head Basketball Coach Trent Wallace, and Hull-Daisetta Assistant Basketball Coach Dannon Wafer were all issued two-years probation and a public reprimand. Both head coaches will also report back their progress in implementing lessons from the Texas Way. The Burkeville High School and Hull-Daisetta High School athletic departments both received two-years probation.

Nice win for my Aggies over #1 Auburn.

The majority of the coaches across the state wanted it. Sups backed them up so UIL made the change. I hate it. It is completely unnecessary. Shortens the playoffs by one game, no more regional tourneys and now just the championship games at SA. Some of the sites played last night for semifinal games were a joke. If they had to go to divisions, then UIL should have waited till next realignment and just did divisional districts like football. But I am hearing they won't do that at all and will just leave it to splitting after district play ends. That is stupid. Football needs divisions because of the numbers. All other sports do not need it. As for state tourney at Austin? I certainly do not miss it. Traffic along with astronomical prices for hotels because of SXSW was just too much. I am so glad UIL moved it to San Antonio. So much better there. I guess I do miss Schulze's beer garden but that's all I miss. SA has much more options on the drinking and eating front. Keep it in SA and no more divisions!! That's how you make it great again. lol

Glad I could help.

Correct. But it wasn't possible for a district to do that in the past since only there was only one state champion per classification prior to this season.

Maybe because this is the first time basketball has gone to two divisions. Before, it was impossible to have two state champions since they only crowned one.
