MATHEW328, DID YOU HAVE A CHANGE OF HEART ON THE SEMINOLE V. SHALLOWATER GAME. YOU PICK SHALLOWATER TO BE A REGION I FINAL FOUR PICK BUT PICKED SEMINOLE TO BEAT SHALLOWATER THIS WEEK. JUST WONDERING.

ON ANOTHER NOTE: I WATCHED DIMMITT AND SHALLOWATER PLAY LAST WEEK TO DECIDE THE TOP SEED IN THE DISTRICT AND DIMMITT IS ONE HELLUVA A TEAM. I LIVED IN DIMMITT FOR 3 YEARS AND COACH STEINLE IS ONE CLASS ACT GUY. DID YOU KNOW THAT DIMMIT IS IN CASTRO COUNTY ALONG WITH ANOTHER TOWN BY THE NAME OF "NAZARETH." CASTRO COUNTY HAS SENT A TEAM TO THE STATE TOURNEY THE LAST 59 OUT OF 60 YEARS. THE LAST TIME A TEAM DID NOT MAKE IT WAS 1999 WHEN DIMMITT BOYS AND GIRLS LOST IN TEH REGIONAL FINALS AND NAZARETH'S STARTING 5 GIRLS QUIT THE TEAM. THE COACH WAS FIRED AT THE END OF THE SEASON. NAZARETH HOLDS THE NATIONAL RECORD FOR STATE TITLES I BELIEVE WITH 15 WITH 2 OF THEM THE LAST 2 YEARS. THEY HAVE 4 OF THE 5 RETURNING STARTERS FROM LAST YEAR AND ONE OF THEM , STEPHANIE THIEL, SIGNED WITH UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS.
