Eagles may have a hard time climbing in the poll
August 31, 2009 7:18 PM

The Holliday Eagles may have trouble moving up too fast in the Class 2A rankings this year despite a great start with a win over tradition-rich Windthorst.
The reason is that No. 1 Daingerfield and No. 2 Arp look extremely impressive. I actually made Arp my No. 1 team on my ballot after a 51-7 victory over Omaha Paul Pewitt. Those boys from Omaha can usually play football so a score like that gets a voter's attention.
I try to give our area team's a voice anytime it's reasonable to do so. So my homer vote on Holliday is No. 3 in Class 2A. I just can't go higher than that just yet.
This is what my AP ballot looks like in 2A:
1. Arp; 2. Daingerfield; 3. Holliday; 4. Kirbyville; 5. Refugio; 6. Muleshoe; 7. Bushland; 8. Newton; 9. Altair Rice; 10. Lone Oak.
