Abilene Wylie is not part of Abilene ISD, correct? Is it in the city of Abilene?

What about Greenwood? Part of Midland ISD? In the city of Midland?

Are there other schools that are commonly attached to cities/ISDs that they are not a part of?

Do you know if there is another Greenwood in Texas?

Every time I see or hear Wylie I think of 5A Wylie by Plano.

Thats funny im the total opposite.

If Greenwood is 9 miles SW of Midland then why do they call it "Midland Greenwood"?

I think somewhere around East Texas is a town called Green Wood (2 words)!

I didn't realize that mapquest would bring up Greenwood in Midland County since it's not a "town"!

I used to get those 2 confused too, but Sinton has beat them both now in baseball so it doesn't matter anymore. :D

Probably so.....it still drives me nuts though!

But....it probably makes those "Midlanders" even madder....(they don't like to claim us!):D

Pretty much! Or that's how it seems in the Midland Reporter Telegram! Greenwood barely gets a mention!

Even on the MyWestTexasFootball.com website...there is hardly ever a mention of Greenwood there. (Of course, that is partly my fault, I don't hardly post there either.....it's no fun discussing your team with yourself):p

Do you find that if you are away from Midland and and people ask you where you are from, you say Midland? But if you are in town and people ask you where you live, you say Greenwood??

I do!:D
