A couple of corrections or clarifications that need to be made. First, Samnorwood was the # 2 seed out of District 7. There was a three way tie for first between McLean, Motley County and Samnorwood. Such ties in this district are broken by a coin flip. McLean flipped heads to be the odd man in as the # 1 seed. Samnorwood was awarded the # 2 seed by virtue of their 46-38 win over Motley County .
I posted that Zephyr was runner up from District 13. That was WRONG as there is no District 13 to begin with and also Zephyr was the District Champion and Paint Rock was the runner up with both teams coming out of District 14. I want to thank Coach Wilcoxen of Zephyr and Shawn Reed, Superintendent of Samnorwood for pointing out the error of my ways. If anyone catches other errors please let me know and I will try to get those corrected as well.
The season continues to build toward the State Championships in a couple of weeks. Right now there are 16 teams left in both Divisions combined. Next week we will have 8 teams left.
Good Football To You.
