Interesting article....although their definition of "Houston Area" is quite Liberal!!  Didn't realize Lufkin was in the Houston Area.  El Campo, Brenham yea, but Bay City is a good 2 hour drive.

Bay City has crashed over the years.  That town has really declined.  El Campo is always good, not sure why either.  Not any real growth out that far.  Just corn fed football players. 

Brenham, well pft......  ;D ;D ;D  Just kidding green shoes..... ;)

I agree.  They have the same # of wins we do.

[Bigdog]

Yeah, they have Brenham on the list, which is what an hour and a half from Houston and not LM?  Their "Houston area" is a little lopsided.

We're about an hour from Houston.

[CAL2TEX]

what... no Barbers Hill  :-\ :-\ :-\ ??

[Wonderboy]

What no WO-S.  Their winning % is like 79%. WO-S is certainly closer to Houston than Lufkin is. I realize the article was counting total number of wins but percentage should count for something too  :'(

[liltex]

Anybody know the # of wins Jack Yates HS has in FB?

[/quote]Lufkin is in a what they call a Houston area district the woodlands and conroe district.

[Guest donniebarnwell]

DFW has been a lot more dominant than Houston area over the past few years

Ahh I C, guess they didn't want WO-S raining on that parade anyway. Wasn't looking at it like that.

La marque doesnt like being known as a houston school..... but Our winning tradition has always been strong. And the Houston area is the closest "big" county to our little district so we should definitely be on that list.... 5 championship teams and 10 other playoff finals appearances. The numbers speak for themselves.

they're only counting total wins.... LM does have the best Chamionship history around these parts though.

La Marque should be on any list that concerns winning football in the state of Texas.

Yet we are constantly questioned and sometimes doubted by a lot of media in big game situations... I think we've proven time and time again that we can compete with just about anyone... We have moved down to 3a because of our low enrollment and yet, i can name at least 2 or 3 5a teams that would have nightmares about La marque's defense this year.

Geographically, Lufkin shouldnt be included in the Houston area, but they do play in a district that includes Houston area teams like the Woodlands etc.  I'm guessing that's the reason.
