The 1st time was in 1958 when they played for the state championship and lost to Stamford in 2A. I have no recollection of that as I was living in San Antonio with my parents and had never heard of Angleton. The second time was in 1973 when they played Austin Travis in 4A which was then the top classification and lost to them by 2 points and barely missed out on a chance to play against the legendary Earl Campbell and his Tyler Lions for the state title. Then in 2017 in Coach Roark's last year before retiring as the Region 4 champion they lost to Manvel by a score of 35-10. There have been a couple of years that they also just missed being Regional champs ,2011 when they lost to Pearland Dawson 27-23 in regional finals and 2015 when they lost to Ridge Point 36-35 in overtime when they scored a TD and decided to go for 2 and didn't make it. The odd thing about that game is it was held in San Antonio's Alamo Dome because there was a threat of freezing wet weather in the forecast and I guess they could not get NRG. I believe it was Austin Reagan Angleton played back in the ‘70s. Ironically, the head ball coach went to LaPorte not long after that. Carroll Lundin I believe in 1974 . OlDawg 1 Quote

He had LP playing in their first Quarterfinal in ‘78 against Craig James & Stratford their 15-0 Championship year. That’s when I was at LP. Quote
OlDawg Posted December 7 Report Posted December 7 Congrats on a great season so far to both Angleton & La Porte! Safe travels to all going to the game. Let’s hope for an injury free contest, and good luck to both teams. But, more to the Dawgs! Let’s go Dawgs! Quote
