Livingston District Alignment???????????

Question about Livingston possibly staying in 20-4A? ???

What are the idiots making the decisions smoking? :o

Livingston should not have to travel alll the way to the GT to play every away game in every sport. >:(

Somebody needs to get of the pot and help the kids in Livingston. Much less saving money for the school district.

Heck, Dayton, BH, and GCM are all much closer.

[Guest Pirate_pride_07]

Well what's the closest town to the GT from that district?

If...
GCM, Dayton, BH, and Livingston all stay 4A, and assumming all the current 20-4A teams stay 4A, one team from outside the triangle must be pulled in to make 20-4A have an even number of teams.  Before Livingston, it was Dayton.  I guess Dayton did "political procedures" to get out of 20-4A.  BH probably has the $$$ and the policital clout not to be placed over there.
IMO...
I wish Dayton would have stayed over in 20-4A.  It's better competition, and practically every away game you play in front of a packed home side.  That sure beats going to CE King and playing in front of 2 dozen or going to North Forest and playing in front of 30.  Sure, the away games are over an hour each, but the fans in the triangle are the most passionate around and they support their teams.

Probably Dayton. They were in our district for two years and that seems to be the most sensible option. Then again, far be it for the UIL to be sensible.

Although that means you'll get to see purple at least one more time each year. ;D

I think we'd have to agree to play at a neutral site for that to happen. No offense, but I don't think our coaches are going to agree to play somewhere that can't fit our fan base in the preseason.

So explain to me again why 20 4A has to have 8 teams? There are 7 team districts all over this state. With the Houston schools going 3A you could see North Forest and/or CE King moving over into the Houston districts. This would open up 19 4A to have 7 or 8 teams with Livingston.

4 non district games is not a problem.

I'd like to see more pre-season games as well. I'd like to see us pick up WO-S or WB. We've agreed to play Memorial already and I guess we're going to keep Crosby and TC on the schedule.

I look to see Liv put in the 18-4a dist w/Huntsville(not a far drive)and put maybe Humble/Summer crk or KWP back in 19-4a-Put Dayt & BH in 20-4a,(that would get Dave Campbell/others looking)but that's my scenario for what it's worth 8)

If this is true and they still put Livingston in our district, we will all know that the UIL is nuts!

BH to 20-4a.  That sound you heard is the collective Hill fans butts' puckering in unison.  The thought of playing in a real district is just too much for Haircutter's Mound Eaglets.  Side note - Dear Santa, forget the toy train and new socks for Christmas.  All I want is BH in 20-4A!!!  Signed, Everyone who wants to beat up on an arrogant group of wanna be fans.

I know the alignment that was posted is not official.
In my opinion, Livingston should be in the same district with Huntsville, Willis, Magnolia and either the Montgomery schools, or the Humble Schools.  I posted the estimated travel times in the Alignment thread as being a big budget issue and concern, especially with the sports (volleyball, basketball, and softball) where you play twice (home and away) in the same season.  Also, due to the distance, the time that the athletes have to miss at least 1 or 2 classes, get home late at night, and get up early to go to school the next day.  When I think about that, all I can do is shake my head.

[liltex]

Actually travel is not a real issue here compared to West Texas.

I thought that everyone travels not just Livingston.  So the burden is not just on Livingston it is on every school in the district.
