I'll never forget that name. He's the best HS kicker I've ever seen. Went on to a&m and then med school.

That was the 1st of 3 straight 1st round losses to CE King. All at Rice I believe. We've never been back.

I was at that game as well.   Ol Mustang Stadium, was packed!   Went back n forth.   I remember PNG scored on a fake field goal, I believe, with Keith Waguespack, their all-American kicker.

Who did WOS lose to the 1st round?   CE King?

PNG beat Crosby the 1st round, then beat a very talented Jasper team the 2nd round.

Waguespack was Mr. Automatic!! Great kicker

'89 team with R. Mcgill at RB, Ryan Robertson at QB & B. Bost at WR were solid on offense, played hard nosed tough defense & all 11 guys on defense would drop the hammer on dudes

How long has PNG been in 5a

PNG has been in 5A (which was 4A until the addition of 6A) since 1988, besides a brief stint in 5A (the current 6A) in 1994 and 1995.

Sounds confusing, but they’ve been primarily in the state’s second highest class since the late 80’s. Of course the UIL then added divisions of the classes more recently.

Remember the jasper playoff game at pasadena cold i sit on jasper side waving png flag!!

I was on that defense. In the Jasper game I got knocked smooth cold out on a play and played the rest of the game and I didn't even know where I was. Good times! It's funny not to remember a whole game but yet I remember everything up to getting smoked crystal clear. Until the lights went out for a minute. The last thing I remember is being in air, horizontal. 🤣🤣

1989 bi district game? I would have sworn that game was played at old Lamar cardinal stadium.

You think so? That is a ton of people. Hell maybe it would. IDK. Just IMO smaller venue, packed stands, right on top of the action, seems like a better feel just IMO. Look up and see NO empty seats. 

I think so, I was at the games in 99, and the crowd grew and grew as they got deeper. I was at championship game too, I think it was around 40k

Just out of curiosity, what portion of that do you think were on the PNG side of the Dome?  It appeared to be around a 3 or 4 to 1 ratio between the 2 sides. Would have made an interesting aerial shot if there wasn't a roof. 

As I recall, 35,000 tickets were allotted to each school. PN-G nearly sold out its ticket allotment. Stephenville had maybe 5,000 fans present for that game.

in 1989 Jasper only had 1 playoff game. a 29-18 loss to PNG and it wasn't in Pasadena. I graduated in '91 and played football 4 years in highschool.

Check the headline. My uncle, Howard Roden actually wrote that article. Him and Bob West were sports writers back when that was the only media. Scroll to the bottom of the page to read the article.

From the article... Coach Mathews says...

"A lot of there little leagues run the same thing,” he said of Liberty Hill. “They run it from 7 or 8 years old. They add a little each year, but call it the same things. They believe in what they do. The kids believe in it. The parents believe in it. If you try to change offenses I think they will run you out.” 👀

in this day and time that's probably fake news.  looks authentic though.  

All I was saying earlier is Coach Walkoviak liked playing in Pasadena.  Lamar stadium would have been basically a home game for PNG.

😉 🤐😳🙄 🙊

    • I get it!!  I was once in your shoes. I was that person in the stands, loudly complaining about “bad officiating.” Now, with the rise of social media, it’s easier than ever to voice these criticisms online.  I thought I could see every call better than the officials on the floor. Then someone said to me, “If you can do better, get in the game.”   That challenge changed my life. Over 20 years ago, I became a basketball official, and what I’ve learned since then is eye-opening.   Officiating is not just about making calls. It’s about managing the game, the players, the coaches, and yes, the fans. We face a new generation of student-athletes who have been raised in a culture where everyone gets a trophy and losing is almost taboo. We deal with fans who question our integrity and sometimes become outright hostile.   I acknowledge that officials aren’t perfect; we have off days just like anyone else. However, the increasing hostility from fans is driving many to leave officiating. According to the National Federation of High School Associations, approximately 50,000 high school officials have left the profession since the 2018-19 season, with fan behavior being a significant factor.    Here’s the reality: without officials, there is no game.   So, instead of tearing down the people who make your games possible, here’s a suggestion:   • Thank the officials for being part of the game. • Thank them for the countless hours they spend studying rules, mastering mechanics, and working to improve. • Thank them for their patience with privilege-minded athletes and overly aggressive fans.   Next time you see an official, instead of criticizing, take a moment to say, “Thank you.” They’re out there to make the game happen, and trust me, it’s not as easy as it looks from the stands.   If you think you can do better, take the challenge like I did. Get in the game. You might just discover how much it takes to blow that whistle.
