IF WO-S  WERE To Drop To 2A And Still Win Games Like Thy Have Been Doing Over The Years,Would YOU Sill Like To Play The Mustangs Even If Thy Are A 2A Team

For a large school(4a) it could hurt them in the state rankings, but who cares. Newton and now Kirbyville are small schools that would prepare 3a and some 4a schools for the playoffs. Its not the size that matters, but how well you play football.

Don't think we'll ever drop to 2A.

Well, that is what I thought 10 years ago about going to 3A.

I am sure that there are some 4A teams which would still agree to play the Mustangs.  The question is whether Coach Hooks (or his successor) would ever schedule teams two classifications higher.  Take this years predistrict for instance.  I know that there are some who are complaining about the strength.  However, as he did when the Mustangs ceased playing 5A teams while in 4A, Coach Hooks will (and maybe has) at some point determine that playing schools with much bigger enrollments is actually hurting the team rather than toughening them up.

WOS on the way to 2A...gulp. WOS vs. Deweyville  :o

I have a feeling wos vs. e.c.  Wouldn't be much better.

That wasn't a slight against DV. Anyone familiar with my posts overall knows I wish the best for DV. I was drawing a contrast of sizes, DV is by far the smallest 2A, and if WO-S drops into 2A, they would (at least for a time) be the largest 2A.

One thing to keep in mind, if WO-S drops to 2A, at some point the teams depth will inevitably reduce. As for EC, maybe it wouldn't be much better. The exception might have been last two years, when TT and Co. could have given it a go...

what is the cut off line between 3a and 2a.is wo-s a  big 3a school

In 1984 WO-S had an enrollment of close to 1350 and the cutoff between 2A and 3A was 275

In 2008 WO-S has an enrollment of 691 and the cutoff between 2A and 3A is 430

If the enrollment numbers continue to drop as they have, and the cutoff between 2A and 3A continues to rise as it has it is definitely within the realm of possibility that WO-S could drop to 2A

They're still 260 students above the cutoff but a little over 20 years ago they were over 1000 students above the cutoff!

With WO-S constantly losing students, and the UIL gradually bumping the 2A cutoff number higher, its going to happen, probably within 6 or 8 years (3 or 4 realignments from now).

I pulled this from a post I put up several months ago.  You also have to realize that the WO-S enrollment has fluctuated up and down, with the enrollment actually being within 38 students of hitting 1000 as recently as 1999.  I imagine our current low level is partially due to numbers dropping after Rita, and it's quite likely the numbers could increase in the 2010 alignment.

This is the hidden content, please

These numbers are the official enrollments counting grades 9-12 in each of the respective high schools published by the TEA in their annual Standard Reports.  The numbers differ slightly from the UIL enrollment numbers but they should be pretty close.   

1991 was the first year ever that LC-M had a larger enrollment than WO-S

2006 was the first year ever that Bridge City had a larger enrollment than WO-S

It is not really accurate to say WOS is a "small 3A".  WOS is a pretty average size 3A school.

In terms of the current 3A class:

WOS ranks #71 out of 180 in size

WOS has an enrollment of 691 which is:

40 higher than the 3a average of 651

285 smaller than the largest 3A school and 271 larger than the 2A cutoff
