Now, four coaches have left Newton. L Thompson, Robbie Hatton, Tabor Westbrook and Brian Barbay. Two retired, one was promoted to assist. principal and one went to Jasper.

Woodville, be careful what you wish for.....

I like it the way it is.

Come on lets hear from you Tenaha, Timpson, BoBo, and Blair.

Walgreens in Jasper has the magazine.

Newton will be as good or better than last year. Newton carried 45 on their roster and they all played last year. Newton will have a QB(4.5) that will cause defensives to have to account for his running. Defense will be solid and very quick.

Some districts are probably smaller due to trying to cut down on long traveling games. I know they added Frankston to Newton's district. Frankston is the other side of Jacksonville. A lot of our fans cannot travel that far. That's a long drive on the old yellow dog. A major problem if our football bus breaks down and we have to get another bus brought down to make it to the game on time. Last year our cheer leader bus broke down, luckily we were only playing at Silsbee that night.

Keep rolling PN-G. Great job. Now let's finish it.

they will lose at least two games- PN-G and Memorial.

you mean co-district champs

BC had a great year. You lost, get over it. Excuses are for losers.

Way to go PN-G. BC, PN-G,WO-S are among several local teams having a fantastic year. Keep it going guys.

Wow.

It is my understanding that a lot of the kids that have not been offered a college scholarship or looking for a better offer are displayed so as to try to get these kids an offer from a college team..

Got a peek into DC TX Football magazine from DCTFM site. For region 3 class 4A-2, it shows WO-S lost a lot of talent, 10 players off last years team signed to play college ball. It states Thompson is 78-11 since taking over in 2011. Stated that they don't expect a letdown with WO-S. 31 and 1 with back to back state championships. Other teams in that region that are mentioned are LaGrange, Liberty and Giddings. In region 3 class 3A -2 it picks Newton to be strong again (to be more athletic and faster) and to be challenged in district by Crockett (which they show will have most all their offence back). and Garrison to be a challenge to Newton. Other teams in that region show Arp to have lost a lot of players but have some key pieces coming back. El. Fields to be strong. They show region 4, 3A-2 to be strong.

RainderGirl2010 I don't think you are crazy. I enjoy your posts. Hang in there.

District 10-3A-2 Newton (will be strong on defense). Skill players back on offense, new QB but Newton will have more speed. Crockett Garrison Corrigan Camden

He was coaching in 1961 when I was a senior. He was track coach and an assist. coach. Great man, my heart goes out to his family.

Welcome aboard Coach Neece.

Tamauzia Brown from Newton. As a sophomore he was MVP in district 10-3A-2. This kid has multiple talents as wide receiver, running back, punt returns or defensive back. Maybe not the best in the area, but he is one of the best.

Talking about assistant coaches, remember a couple of assistant coach named Cornell Thompson and W.T. Johnston.

yes, and Bruce Silsbee is from Newton.

Seems like we hear this every year. I'm sure that after all these comments they will rework this list so everyone will be happy..

Wow, if we (Newton) had money no telling how good we would be. We are one of the poorest counties(school districts) in Texas. We are trying to upgrade to flush toilet restrooms. Our old blocking dummies are rusting out, need some new 55 gal. drums. With the unemployment rate extremely high in our county, there is little chance of passing a bond. Maybe some rich person will come alone and donate about a million for new turf. Then maybe we can make it back to state again.

Who is the home team?
