A Little SETX football history- SETX state champions in the PVIL

[OldBuc77]

Instead of being productive at work I came across the PVIL website. I've always thought the PVIL was an important yet overlooked part of the football history of SETX and thought some of you might be interested in this. I knew PA Lincoln and Bmt Hebert had won PVIL state championships, but I didn't know how many or when. The PVIL website listed the state champions in football from 1940-1968.

PVIL State Champions from area towns 1940-1968:

Livingston Dunbar: 1A 1953, 1A 1954, 1A 1958 (state finalist 1A 1959)

Baytown Carver: 2A 1955, 2A 1958, 2A 1961

Port Arthur Lincoln: 1949 2A (co-champs), 1953 3A, 1955 3A

Orange Wallace: 1A 199, 2A 1954
