The Cauldron is Bubbling Over as Football Playoffs Begin
Hello Sports Fans!
Hello Sports Fans!
Members of the Groesbeck Lady Goats varsity volleyball team recently received All-District honors to add to their outstanding season. The Lady Goats finished third in District 203A with a 7-5 record, and were 26-18 overall, finishing the season as a Bi-District finalist.
We are T-Minus Week 11, and that means the playoffs start next week for Texas High School Football teams. Fairfield is a shoe-in for the No. 1 seed in District 9-3A Division I, and next door in Limestone County, the Coolidge Yellowjackets – barring an upset by Penelope – should make it in the final playoff spot in District 11-1A/Six-Man DI. The Teague Lions are currently in a quad-tie with Westwood – yes, they got handled by the Eagles last Friday night – Crocket, and Diboll. On paper, Westwood should take out their frustrations on poor 1-8 Huntington; Teague and Diboll go at it, and Crockett will try to bite their way to a win, but they’re playing Fairfield. If I had my say, I’d say that the No. 3 seed will come down to the loser of the Teague-Diboll game, with the loser in a tie for the No. 4 seed. The winner will be in a tie for the No. 2 seed with probable winner, Westwood.
Bi-Stone volleyball teams concluded their district season, with a few advancing to the playoffs beginning this coming weekend.
No big surprises in last week’s games, other than Teague upsetting No. 4 ranked Palestine Westwood Panthers at home Friday night, 42-20, in District 9-3A DI football. The Panthers will look to upset fellow Class 3A DI, No. 8 ranked Fairfield Eagles. Westwood will be playing at home.
