[Guest Kelly Football]

:shock: impressive with Lufkin no. 3.

[Jsmity]

Lufkin is always impressive year in and year out.

[kicker]

Why is Southlake under Lufkin?

[vp93]

I think that Lufkin has a lot more comming back.

[KFDM COOP]

They do. SLC lost the entire Offense.

[Guest bulldogbark]

I enjoy listening to Lufkin Football games, wish I could make some...been following them for some time now

[KFDM COOP]

Will see if this is the year they defeat the Dragons.

[Footballblue]

SLC will find a way to win...not taking away from Lukin, thier are alway in the hunt.

[kicker]

SLC will find a way to win...not taking away from Lukin' date=' thier are alway in the hunt.[/quote']

For some reason, SLC can lose their whole offense and still be champs IMO

[WVU Fan]

I don't know about Hoover being #1. I saw them play last year on ESPN against Tim Tebow and his team from Florida and neither team impressed me. SLC wouldv'e cleaned both of their clocks. I also saw South Panola(Miss) play while I was evacuated and the top four teams in Texas (5A) would've beat them. I think either this year or next, the top four teams in Texas are going to play the top four teams in Ohio, which should be very good games. I'd like to see SLC, Katy, Lufkin, and North Shore play Cleveland St, Ignatious, Massilon, Clorain (Cincy), and Princeton (Cincy). Those seem to be the four most consistant teams in each state, year in and year out.

1992- 659

What other schools do you see with this trend? Carroll took a big jump from 1993 to 1994 with enrollment, and it continued to increase every year.
