Unfortunately we ran into some pretty good teams in the playoffs. We were 46-6-1 between 86-89. Lost two regular season games, both to 4a teams (10-9 to Carthage in 1987 and 17-7 to Mt. Pleasant in 1989) We were 9-4 in the playoffs. Lost to State Champs Jefferson in 86; Lost to Linden in 87 (who later lost to Southlake Carroll); lost to State Champs SLC in 88; beat SLC in 89 but lost the next week in the quarterfinals to Gladewater. Oh well. 88% winning percentage is not bad. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jmeek Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Newton has alot of talent and it is overlooked alot of the time by fbs school's, alot of the southeast texas area gets overlooked alot. For example Toddrick pendland RB for Newton in 2005, he went to Mcneese because lots of FBS schools where overlooking him . He is now a two time All american in the FCS and he is projected to go in the second round of this coming up NFL draft. Another player that was overlooked was Bryran Smith DE for Newton 2003 he went to Mcneese for the same sort of reasons, he was also a two time all american and he holds the sack record for most sacks in a game and in a Season. He was later drafted in the fourth round of the NFL draft by Philly and was later traded to the Cleveland browns. These are just a few that never made a recruiting list and were never showed any attention by FBS schools. Don't get me wrong SETX is finally getting a little respect from the FBS with players like Earl Thomas(Texas) Christine Michael (Texas A&M) Deon Beasly(Texas) Jamal Charles(Texas)(Kansas City) Shawn Witherspoon(Mizo) just to name a few. They have opened the door for other SETX kids to Finally get noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have some top flight guys coming back. But, they lose a lot of seniors. The guys taking their place are talented, but won't be nearly as experienced. Some guys are going to have to come up big. But, they will have some really strong senior leaders. We will have to wait and see. But, I believe Daingerfield will at least win their region.

Because they're tired of losing? :-\ Come on, that makes no sense. They still won't have as much talent as Daingerfield. Maybe in a couple years, but not this year. So, other than just being tired of losing to Daingerfield, what rational reason would you have for believing Newton would win a potential matchup with Daingerfield?

ChampionEagles Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Does the school and town name Marlin ring any bells? Newton fans should know the name well. Before you go talking trash about what Newton does you should know the history. Daingerfield has a program that is hitting on all cylinders currently and I don't think you can boast Newton doing anything to derail that program. I'm a loyal Newton fan and hope I'm wrong about that. Newton has a storied program that I'm real proud of, but so does Daingerfield. In my opinion you should respect your competition for what they are. Notice I said "respect" not fear. Daingerfield can be beaten, but it will have to be done on the field and not in some talk shop.

ChampionEagles Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 That clears that up. It puts your kinfolk in the same boat as you and I with Kirbyville and Newton. We're not in the coaching ranks for either team and I bet neither are your kinfolk with Daingerfield. Being in 2A there is no spring practice to evaluate talent and it has to be left to practice at the end of summer. Can't even call 'em two-a-days in Newton anymore. Haven't had those in years. That's lots of time for kids to mature as well as grow physically. There are systems at all three schools that take athletes and make better athletes and no way am I going to agree that a two time defending state champion system is going to decline as a "known fact". They obviously lost seniors both years preceding their titles and their coaches were able to replace what they lost. Can they do it again? All I know is they are the Champions until playoff time this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
