They can stay 4-A. Someone else would have to verify, but I think thats what happened last year.. Their #'s were only 3-A but chose to stay 4-A. [/quote]La Marque did not opt up this time around. The opt up decision of the various schools was released earlier this week. They will be in 3A.

docrivers Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Will make for a fun time in the state.
Pumper Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 If these schools are dropping down due to actual attendance numbers being 3A now, and if they are not doing any funny business with transfers, then why should any current 3A powers (WOS, Silsbee, etc in football) (HJ, Silsbee, etc in basketball) be concerned? Numbers are numbers; talent is talent; good coaching is good coaching right?Or is there something else I'm missing?

FanintheStands Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I understand why the Dove and DickieV are happy about the re-alignment. It would seem that the local 4A schools won't have to worry about the Beasts from Houston in Regionals anymore.
