how bout this one 

90 something boys at Refugio highschool and 84 play  of them play football.  

Yes, but not the same classification as EC.  However,  Refugio is the same type of beast in 2a.  Thats why they've been on top for 3-4 decades.

That the point of my post. not about classification but  the participation.

Yes sir.  To me there is not another program in SETX that does it better than the boys and girls in Winnie.

EC takes this one. 

[87JAG]

Only 11 players can be on the field at a time. TBH look at some of the better teams and you will find players playing both ways with a lot of players on the bench. The best man plays.

[87JAG]

Any more questions?

If Lumberton had a tough run game they would be a tough out. QB keep his cool several times and found receiver's. Good Luck Lumberton.

[Longhorn Fan1]

I guess it is never the coaches?  And I guess a kids last name doesn't help determine playing time?  I promise it does in Lumberton.

I can't say that it is never the coaches.  But it isn't in Lumberton. 

This is a coach that has put Lumberton in the area round the last 2 years in a row.  That has never been done before, EVER.

I simply can not fathom what Chris Babin is going to have to do to win over the support of some folks in Lumberton.

Get to the state semis 2 years in a row, but even that might not be enough. ☕🤷🏾‍♂️

[Boneyard Boys]

Just be glad Lumberton didn’t have to move up to 5A it looked like they were before they shifted the realignment numbers. You’ve got 2 more years to complete for the playoffs until they move up in my opinion.

That's not enough for some around Hardin county, but at least Lumberton ain't hating on the qb.

3-2 the last 2 seasons in district and lucked out and played an awful Wheatley team in the first round.  If I remember correctly they went deeper in 2006 or 2007.

Went deeper 2007 got beat in bi-district by Crosby 2008

It was 2007 and 2008.  Do you happen to know who the OC on those 2 teams was?

Someone asked earlier if it was the kids lack of mental toughness.  On this board it can never be the coach.  It is always the kids I just don't buy that.

It comes down to Lumberton community to support him. The kids  need to get in the weight room and stopped being spoiled. I’m not even a Lumberton guy and  I make joke with those guys a lot but I promise You right now I would not have a problem with him comIng to LCM. 

[Longhorn Fan1]

Look deeper at those schedules pre-historic is normally loaded up with much smaller schools to pad the record.

[Longhorn Fan1]

He has been trying to leave for 3 years and can't get hired anywhere else.  Has nothing to do with support from the community if you act like a jerk people are never going to support you.

[spidersal]

He is a good person and coaches hard. He is now 27-28 at lumberton. He does a great job of getting people to play. His 1st head coaching job was Houston Scarborough who is always bad. He did about as good as you can do. Dewey I’ll was his 2nd head coaching stint and he did well because the players had some toughness. Warren had players that were very soft, slow, and used to losing. At lumberton, they are slow, soft, and have low expectations
