2020 HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PREVIEWS

WEST SABINE TIGERS

2019 Record: 3-6 Overall, 1-4 District

5th Place in District 12-2A-I

 

2019 was a year of struggle as the West Sabine Tigers went 3-6 last season.  However, 2020 will be a year of excitement in Pineland as Coach Jerred Wallace returns ten starters on each side of the ball and will be competing in Class 2A, Division II.  Both should bode well for the Tigers' chances to getting back to the playoffs.

Senior lineman Zach Retherford (1st team all-district) will lead an offensive line which will also feature juniors Peyton Maddox and Tate Lane.

 

DEFENSE

Ten starters also return to the West Sabine 3-4 defense.  Mason, Retherford and senior Hunter Davis will anchor the defensive line.  Anderson and Ross will lead the Tiger linebacker corp. Smith and senior Jacob Chambliss (2nd team all-district) will anchor the Tiger secondary along with Murphy (2nd team all-district) at cornerback.  Expect sophomore Blaine Borque to contribute to the Tiger defense as well.

Only 3 home games. Start the season with 5 straight games on the road.

4 home games and 4 of the first 5 on the road.  Beckville will be a home game.

Oh, thought it said "at Beckville".

Still, 4 road games in first 5 weeks is rough.
