WOSgrad Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 I know there had been some questions about the status of the High Island program this season and even some talk that Coach Jones may shut the team down for the season.Well, I just got word from Coach Jones that the Cardinals will return to action on Friday night as they host Galveston O'Connell in High Island! I for one am glad to hear that the guys have recovered to the point where they can retake the field and wish them good luck on Friday night!
Kville_Kats Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 I agree..Good Luck High Island...
Rebel Yeller Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Great news! From the folks in Evadale we wish you success and health for the remainder of the season.
Guest ECBucFan Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 I'm telling y'all, the Card Community is THE most resilient bunch of folks around! Like I said, if there is any way, they will make this season! Go H-I! 8)
HubTx Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Great news.... It would be terrible for these boys to not get to play....Good luck to High Island....
knightrider Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Happy to hear that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck Coach Jones
bigsoftballfan Posted September 19, 2011 Report Posted September 19, 2011 Do you think they will ever drop to 6man?

Whether they will or not, that remains to be seen. Coach Jones will sit down with the appropriate folks and make the decision that is the best for the folks in High Island.
True Blue Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 If they are stuiting out only 11 players that is truly IRON MAN FOOTBALL good luck cardinals

little d Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 [quote name="bigsoftballfan" post="1060706" timestamp="1316460908"]Do you think they will ever drop to 6man?[/quote] They sure would have some long trips in district. But that's better than no football at all.
DP#1FAN Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 If they do drop to 6-man Orange Community Christian would not be that long of a drive. Wish the Cards the best the rest of the tear.
bigsoftballfan Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 Do you think any other 14-1a teams will drop to 6man?

I wish UIL would get rid of the split conferences for 1A all together.

5horseman Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 I know Coach Jones is trying to build a good program at HI. Hope to see them get better each week.
