The only school in Texas playing either 11-Man or Six Man Football that does not use its official school name is Garden City in Six Man Division I District 8. The school's actual official name is Glasscock County School.

There is at least one more, Reagan County High School in Big Lake. Big Lake is in west Texas , about 80 miles SSE of Midland. I'm fairly certain there are others.

Union Hill High School is in Upshur County and there is no city or even community named Union Hill. Closest community is Bettie, home of the world famous LostAussie!:D

I think you guys are missing the point. Reagan County High School goes by Reagan County High School, not Big Lake High School. Glasscock County School is the official name of the school but everyone refers to it as Garden City High. Raines ISD is a consolidated school dristrict for Rains County and the schools are located in Emory TX. Most people refer to it as Emory Rains but that is not the name of the school. It is Raines High, Middle, etc. Emory is not in the name of the school.

There is Kaufer High School in Riviera, but no one refers to them as the Kaufer Seahawks. They are the Riviera Seahawks
