You could argue Edna is better than either Goliad and Ykm at this point of the season. This Friday will tell. But, Goliad, Yoakum and Edna will likely revisit one another again when it really matters --the playoffs.

YnoT us?
The district has earned respect from the whole state because of the level of play from all three of these teams. Edna is a very good team and getting better every year under Jerry Long and his coaches. Jerry was the offensive coordinator for George Harris at Gregory Portland before leaving to East Bernard. Now at Edna he’s building another great program that will produce good teams every year. Just a lil trivia,also at GP when Jerry was there was Jay Siebert the HC at Rockport. Many good Wing T/ Slot T coaches have come from GP including Jerry Vance from Liberty Hill and Les Goad from Geronimo Navarro who both coached at GP under Harris or Bruce Bush. Small World.
Like I figured, close. Edna is as we thought, solid. They'll be a tough out come playoffs. Congrats Dogs on the 21-17 win and shutting them down after being down 14-0 after 1Q.
YnoT us?
Yes YT it took a couple qtrs for the Dogs to wake up and fight back into this game. They didn’t broadcast this game so I had to keep up with a lot of phone calls. Yoakum needed this kind of game to prepare for Goliad and the playoffs. It’s going to be another slobberknocker when those two teams meet up. One wants revenge and the other wants respect, perfect combination to determine who winning this district. Gona be a good one!
Yoakum 21 Edna 17
Goliad 41 Hallettsville 2
Industrial 49 Luling 6
Yesterdays are gone forever and tomorrows may never happen, but today you have the opportunity to make a difference.
Goliad travels to Edna in Week 10 for yet another marquee matchup for District 14 powers. Yoakum travels to Luling to play a team without a win this season. Hallettsville will battle Industrial to try to win that 4th playoff spot......the winner of this game will get the spot. Goliad secured at least the 3rd spot by defeating Hallettsville Friday night. Now Edna will battle Goliad for the 2nd playoff spot. If Goliad wins, then they will play Yoakum the following week for the District Championship and the number #1 seed from District 14 in the playoffs. If Edna wins, then Goliad can still gain a 3 way tie for the District title by defeating Yoakum on the final week......assuming Edna also wins against Industrial. Then the spots will be determined by a point differential among all three teams
