Dear Swetwater Mustangs,
The latest AP Poll came out, and it looks like the Sweetwater Mustangs have leap-frogged the Snyder Tigers. Here is the story.
I just want to mention, as I have said many times before, Polls are nice. It's a compliment to be considered the #3 team in the state Class 3A Poll. But that is all it should be. A compliment, nothiing more, and nothing less.
In case anyone forgets, the other two state ranked teams in the AP Poll defeated us last year. I'll say this again folks. Abilene Wylie won the Division 1 Championship last year.
Everyone knows these Polls will take care of themselves especially in our district where we have the opportunity to play each other. But it does serve notice in the state that this district is probably one of the toughest in the state also.
I guess I am trying to get over the loss of the Cowboys game last night to the hated Washington Redskins. Everyone just knew that the Cowboys would win that game. As you know, they didn't.
The Mustangs are a good team. The Mustangs are a hard working team. I know none of this Poll stuff really matters. Again, it's a nice compliment to be considered in the Polls. But the biggest compliment to Sweetwater is just give 100% on the field. That's the only place it matters.
Lew

I personally hate to be ranked. Everyone's gunning for you!
That Cowboy game stunk---and to think, I stayed up (on a work night) to watch it! I was so in hopes the 'Boys were turning it around. There's still lots of season to go, so Go Cowboys!

terrible, sad to say but I don't think they are on the way back. They had some bright spots, but not enough.
