Difficult as it was to read, did sound like an exciting finish though. Congratulations on your squeaker!

Yep, I think Marlin's pre-district schedule is smart in preparation for league action. A really good team in 18-3A will be home for district - might be Cameron if they don't wake up, but they play good teams, too. Caldwell is really looking good, too. I don't see a tie for second or third place being that unrealistic. Lorena is getting a tad stronger, too. Does Marlin have any worries over grades? Good luck...
