I would think as a team it should be West Brook with Ferguson (.446), Murphy (.413), Serna (.398), Armstrong (.390) and Lycan (.344) leading the way. Add Schwarzlose (.286) and Wallace (.238 but 2 HR as soph). The Bruins should, again, hit and hit well.

As far as the best hitter, that is very subjective (hit for average, power, etc.). I think the guys at West Brook (Ferguson, Murphy, Serna and Armstrong) all could make a case as could Rowell (LCM), Dishon (BC), Jackson (BC), Hart (Jasper), McFarland (Nederland), Calhoun (Silsbee), Campbell (BH) and Riley (Woodville).

If you look for college level hitters, a strong group has already made commits to D1 programs (Ferguson, Murphy, Rowell, Dishon and Riley). I think others out of the list will sign D1 during/immediately after the HS season.

From the younger group, Jackson, Hart and McFarland are a pretty good core of underclassman. You also have Gardiner (Ozen) and Bunner (Vidor) along with Harrington and Carnahan (both PNG).

Just a really good group of hitters all around in SE Texas. I'm sure I've missed some, but there are a lot of 'em.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      This is good info. It doesn’t really break out for student athletes though. LP & (I think) DP are open enrollment because of the way the towns intertwine. That’s the way it’s been for many years anyway. I assume it still is that way. The kids have a choice after Jr. High to go to either High School because LPISD has elementary schools in DP. As I recall, DP didn’t want to build out more (Robin Hood issues), and so DPISD & LPISD came to an arrangement because LPISD is one of the highest givers to Robin Hood in the state, and it helped both keep more funds in district. Of course, LPISD is open to all. Not just DP, and LPISD is rated well. So, I assume they have kids from elsewhere also. Not positive though. They used to have a lot because—for decades—DeWalt was the only dedicated public school in the GHA that specifically catered to special needs kids. Families from all over enrolled. But, they didn’t participate in extracurricular activities like sports. So, LP’s total enrollment made them 6A. But, they were really a 5A school all along for sports program sake. This is all as best as I can recall from when I was more involved in school issues. I’m sure a lot has changed since then. My kids have been out for 20 years.

      Newton vs Daingerfield

      Our playoff rivalry. They hold a 6-5 edge in the series. I think Newton continues the win streak in a hard fought contest. What say y’all?

      Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet?  Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does “get you.” 😂🤣

      It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
