Expecting big things from Stephenville, I see. I like it! It's more fun when the Jackets are contenders. I'd love to see them step up and give Argyle a whale of a game in the Region II finals.

No doubt. I feel for those schools, but there are no contenders coming out of those districts, save for maybe Kennedale. I think the Wildcats will be pretty salty, but it's going to be a bit tough to gauge just how good they are, with a low level of competition. I don't think Decatur will give them much trouble in the season opener, which means Kennedale's only legit matchup during the regular season is against Midlothian Heritage on Sep. 3. The Jags should push everybody in District 5, and may be the odds favorite to win that district. But that Sep. 3 game will be the only real barometer for seeing how good Kennedale might be.
But district's 6 and 8 aside, District's 5 and 7 are nasty. Half of your Div. I Top 10 comes from those two districts, and a few others are probably inside the top 20.

Seems like you guys could have slid into District 4. Would have been some decently long trips, but nothing too crazy. I could see the UIL's reasoning behind you guys in Region I or II, honestly. Maybe you guys will go back that direction this next realignment.
Are Stephenville's numbers trending up or down these days?

depends who you talk to - i think we have a better shot at being 4a d2 than 5a in the future - we'll see where we stack up in february though
