it wasn't poorly run; heard some teams dropped out yesterday.  Plus they could only use 6 lanes cause of the poor track condition...great teams, great athletes, exciting races but the quality of the track was horrible,(you can put make up on a pig, but it is still a pig)  The girl's triple jump was halted due to  the condition of the run way.

Yea the ADMIN at WO-S refuses to help Athletics, that's why the track is like that.

i didn't walk over to the track the other day but i was at the baseball park. the ballpark was in great condition , big improvement from prior years. i don't know who was responsible for that but if it was coach rojas a big shout out to him and his assistant coach hallman.

Well, at least the kids got to participate.  Way to go and the weather cooperated!  What time did the meet end?  Why did teams drop out and what happened to the Mustangs' 4X200meter relay team?

I agree. Kudos for making it happen with limited resources

the thred reads wos mustangs relay results update through field events, no mention of pole vault, boys r girls, no mats, other equipment ??????????? :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

There were no pole vaulters.  Good thing time wasn't spent borrowing that equipment, huh?  Also, one less criticism for the host of the meet.  I know we have done this track meet at Orangefield for several years.  Kudos to Toby for making the best of a bad situation...what's the alternative...cancel it.  That would be great for the schools and kids.

stang4life, no critisism here, i know its hard work putting meets together, & from what i hear, the coaches & other staff are the workers  with very little financial support or care from the school

board or officials, heck coop even said that. as for as the athletes look like wos has their share of

the cream of the crop, & fan base is great, stangs have a proven record. just wanted to know

about those stick jumpers thats all,no bad here. seems like you guys would get more finances from

the directors huh ???

All you have to do is attend a school board meeting and you can see the support we get from the powers-that-be.  You would think that they would be eager to invest a little.   :o

I don't think we have had a pole vaulter in a few years.  Don't know about the other schools in attendance.

seems that the year in year out success that wos athletes have in several different sports would

encourage  "the powers that be " to invest in the schools athletic dept. i just dont understand some

schools thinking. not knocking anyone r anything else, but most of the time, its the success of your

teams that excite the community & brings pride to your community. i bet the powers sure

do like the success though, dont they :o :o ;D ;D

    • Regardless of the offense, kids need a reason or purpose to play football. Normally, for most kids, football is something they genuinely enjoy playing, because most players won’t be suiting up on Saturdays. At the end of the day, the most successful teams have kids and coaches that genuinely love the game and get joy and fulfillment playing it.  Vidor’s two current biggest issues are the lack of appeal to play the game and a lack of community support. The offense has been the same for years, and Mathews did a great job of getting the kids and community behind his teams year in and year out. Vidor’s whole identity was being a team you hated to play because you knew you were in for a long physical night. That made the game fun for the kids who played, and they took a lot of pride in it. Currently, I would argue that the toxic attitude of the community towards the offense and Dubois in general is the biggest thorn in the team’s side. The need for instant gratification from fans is what is fueling it all. When the players go home or out in the community and hear: how bad the offense is, how bad the defense is, or how bad the coaching is, the players will begin to lose pride in the program, and the game is no longer fun. This leads to discipline issues and players quitting. Vidor has lost their identity and Dubois and the offensive scheme isn’t the culprit. The Vidor community needs to leave their objections of who they hired at the door and let the man work if they wanna be successful in the future. 
    • We will see i heard they pretty dam good 3 losses but all to great teams
    • Yes. May have been Jimmies. What I’m seeing is a lot more teams going back to more ‘traditional style’ offenses. These things go in cycles, and it’s very difficult for all but mega schools to consistently find QB’s who can really be effective with a true spread type offense year in and year out. I’d venture to guess most schools have an outstanding QB that can win a game almost on their own only every few years if that, and that’s what you need for the ‘high flying’ spreads. So coaches go for the O’s that they can groom the majority of kids to be successful running, and take advantage of the superstar’s skills more within that O when they get them.
    • Always a great game… with big Ned on the road to far, I’m going to attend this one. Give me PAM! Tank going to have a 3 sack game 😎😎
    • That last one cost me $50
