Best bass fisherman ever out of Chester has to be Bo Stanley.

He was a pretty good athlete too. lol

Phenomenal athlete, as were all his brothers too George, Ben and Bit.  Bo was a senior when I was freshman and was definitely someone we all looked up to.  Left handed catcher that would throw from his knees and the ball was there at 2nd before the runner 95% of the time.

Bo is a good friend of mine. We were neighbors here in Silsbee for several years. Played many a softball game together.

Great guy

The first meeting between the 2 schools was 1937, which Chester won 13-0.

1937 in the United States:

> FDR was sworn in for his second term.

> It was the 9th year of the Oscars.

> Of Mice and Men was first published.

> William Henry Hastie was the first black judge appointed to the US Federal bench.

> The worst school disaster in US history happened.  A natural gas explosion at the New Boston (Tx) school killed 295 students and faculty.

We sit in no-man’s land between the Beaumont TV coverage area and the Lufkin/Longview/Tyler coverage area.  And……I know it’s not on anyone’s radar.  Just trying to let the boys know there are those out there that support them.

how many times has Chester and Burkeville faced each other in 6-man
