  1. And both coached by baseball guys!!!
  2. Comparing natural turf to artificial turf is not an entirely fair comparison. A well-maintained natural turf field is usually preferred by those who have the money and manpower to maintain them. At the high school level, most fields must be multi-use facilities thus adding the demand of saving money over the long term. The old school Astroturf was brutal for causing many knee injuries because it had superior (dangerously) traction but with bad consequences. The newer artificial turf is much superior in it's playability and ability to mimic natural turf. Costs of artificial turf have dramatically been reduced compared to 10-20 years ago. More companies competing for the market helps as well. The most recent version of these artificial turf fields have the features of not holding/transferring heat by the use of different "pellets". I am very happy that many more schools are able to install a safer artificial turf so that many programs, (football, band, drill team, soccer, etc.) can train, practice, and play on safer field.
  3. Final game from Friday night -- Bridge City 6 Kirbyville 1
  4. Texanlive is a no-go for me too. Not cool!
  5. Having attended multiple Championships at AT&T as well as the one at NRG, I too acknowledge that AT&T is very accommodating to the teams as well as fans for the UIL games. I had hopes that NRG would have been a better host so the games could return occasionally. The Houston area crowds were many thousands lower than those at AT&T. If you have never attended the UIL Championships, you owe it to yourself to make the trek to Arlington and experience a first-class presentation of our beloved Texas High School Football.
  6. 4A Div. 1 - Bridge City vs. Navasota, Friday at Huffman
  7. Bridge City hasn't run the slot-T since 2017.
  8. Just being curious, why do you say this?
  9. The smaller the school, the better the concession stands! Hamshire- Fannett used to have Al-T's Boudin balls!! Love those small school concessions! Literally the "flavor of Friday Nights"!!!
  10. With these two Wing-T teams, I predict the game will be over about 8:45....😎
  11. Add Bridge City ISD to the closures today ( 9-18 )
