Nice work! Really helps put it in perspective.

[Windthorstfan]

San Augustine is probably going to get stuck with Hull-Daisettia and Deweyville which are 100+ mile trips when there are a ton of closer schools to them. Alto could get shipped into that district as well. Can't imagine UIL making a school go through Houston to get to those two. I see Wallis Brazos going into D15. I have Waco shifting into R4.

Then again I don't know what I am doing!!!

[Refcat81]

Nicely don Flash. As far as Region 4 there are 11 teams bounded by I-10 between SA and Houston and south to the border. Kennedy, Yorktown, Shiner, Weimar and Wallis would make District 15 and Ben Bolt, Freer Rivera and Santa Maria would be District 16. The question is which way do Three Rivers and Refugio go. They seem more in the middle and could go either north or south. Anyway you look at it one of the districts will be a 5 team and the other a 6 team.

[PurplePunch]

Well, a picture certainly is worth a thousand words. Bracketville and Sabinal have nowhere to go except north to Center Point, Junction, Harper, and Mason - so district 14. But Ozona is now the lonely one. It’s nearest schools are in District 14, and it’s been with some of them before. 7 team district? Or does Mason go north?

If Ozona joins D 14, does it become district 3, which lost everyone but Ozona? Hard to envision Sabinal and Bracketville in Region 1, but it’s hard to imagine Ozona in Region 4.

These decisions affect everyone, IMO, because if D14 moves to Region 1 to replace District 3, a group from Region 3 has to slide into Region 4, and Region 2 probably loses some teams to R3 to equalize. Man, these small limit changes for 2A D1 could have far-reaching impact.

Soooo, any R4 or R3 teams want to play pre-district games if we go to R1?

[4Gata]

I agree with RefCat. I think Refugio will be the team that determines if D15 or D16 gets the sixth team.

If Mason does get moved to region 1, a Refugio/Mason non-district game would be nice for the next two years. Just don't see that happening considering the travel time, especially for the Thursday 7th-8th-JV games. But, we have made drives to Navarro, Yoe and Lago in recent years. I do think we scheduled a different opponent for the Thursday games on those weeks we played Yoe and Lago though.

Aside from which district we will be placed in, I am curious to see who are non-district schedule will feature this go around. There are plenty of strong contenders within a reasonable drive from us (Goliad, East Bernard, Hallettsville, Cuero, Yoakum, Boling, Van Vleck, Tidehaven.)
This could be a tale of two halves if we get placed in D16 having our first 5 games bulked up, and our last 5 very watered down.

[4Gata]

Very interesting proposal Windthorstfan....I'm sure when it's all done there will be some "What the heck" type of reactions.

Those heavily crowded areas in the Waco area and out East are going to be interesting. There could be some teams within 30 miles of each other and in completely different regions! It will be a domino effect one way or another.

I think you have done a better job than UIL.

[Windthorstfan]

Those heavily crowded areas in the Waco area and out East are going to be interesting. There could be some teams within 30 miles of each other and in completely different regions! It will be a domino effect one way or another.

In my mind it made more sense to keep the Waco area in the same region and send them south to make Region 4. I don't see UIL making 4 team districts so someone has to go south and be in a district with Deweyville, Groveton, Hull-Daisettia, and West Sabine. Last year it was Centerville that went south, but thought it made more sense to group the D11 Schools together. Someone is going to get screwed travelling to district games.

Shelbyville is less than 20 miles from San Augustine, but someone always seems to have to play the traveling game even though there are closer schools

[PaulR]

Thought Forsan hit the Dii mark. You think they will play up I take it.

Forsan turned in 193.

Well, the rubber bands certainly fit. Very reasonable.

[PaulR]

I don't see Stratford going to 2ADii. I bet they petition and stay in D1 and Highland Park goes to D2

[Windthorstfan]

I don't see Stratford going to 2ADii. I bet they petition and stay in D1 and Highland Park goes to D2

Why would they petition? The travel is going to be the same for DI v DII. Only reason to petition is to avoid Mart. They wouldn't face them until State Championship game so that makes no sense either!!!

[H.TIGFAN]

Too late to petition to move up. Deadline was same as snapshot day.

[Eagle 1]

Goldthwaite has been in region 1,2,4 over the years. So there is no telling where we will end up.

[ComancheAlumni06]

I have a hard time seeing that Waco area in Region 4. In the past, Region 4 extended up the eastern side of the state. We played High Island and West Sabine in the 2003 playoffs on our way to the state final. I could see that district with San Augustine and West Sabine coming into Region 4

[ComancheAlumni06]

Nicely don Flash. As far as Region 4 there are 11 teams bounded by I-10 between SA and Houston and south to the border. Kennedy, Yorktown, Shiner, Weimar and Wallis would make District 15 and Ben Bolt, Freer Rivera and Santa Maria would be District 16. The question is which way do Three Rivers and Refugio go. They seem more in the middle and could go either north or south. Anyway you look at it one of the districts will be a 5 team and the other a 6 team.

Technically, there are 13 teams bound by I-10, Sabinal and Bracketville are south of it too. And as crazy as this sounds. Back in the 1A days, Sabinal and D’Hanis We’re in Shiners district. It is still possible they try to bunch Sabinal and Bracketville in with us.

[Windthorstfan]

D11 & D12 will probably be switched with D13 and D14 just made more sense to send Waco south then that SE district.

Ozona throws a monkey wrench into things as they are in no man's land. I would hope UIL doesn't create 4 team districts

[ComancheAlumni06]

Region 3 could go a few different ways than that and Three Rivers and Refugio could trade places just as easy. Those two towns really are about even on a line going south. If looking at a map.

[Windthorstfan]

I like yours better probably more realistic to what UIL will do!!!

[ComancheAlumni06]

If it is more likely what they will do, I hope so. Cause I don’t think it’s that bad. No one really has crazy drives (exception D14). But the UIL is crazy lol

[ComancheAlumni06]

Well really D3, D12, D14 and D16 are a little lumpy with drive distances. But it’s gonna happen to a few districts no matter what.

[ComancheAlumni06]

I like yours better probably more realistic to what UIL will do!!!

And yours was good too! We’ll find out lol.

[PurplePunch]

Both of you present well-considered and reasonable options. 2A is in for quite a shuffle, with key players from this decade moving up, down, and around. The big issue with me is the virtual disintegration of the state’s most far-flung district, leaving only Ozona in D1, and removing 1/4 of Region 1. That’s big, and can’t help but affect other regions. I agree Mason is likely to be one of the affected, and moving away from longtime rival Junction and neighbor Harper isn’t something we prefer, but I can see it happening with Center Point coming back up and orphaned Ozona very likely to come in. Not sure how disappointed the other district teams will be to see us go, but...

The other huge issue is the two semi-finalists from Regions 1 & 2 moving down, and arguably the strongest Division 2 team moving up, into Region 3. Fundamental shifts of power in every region, if you believe Mason moving out of Region 4 counts. I personally wish the UIL would announce the realignments as soon as reasonable after the championships, like early January. That would allow coaches to get schedules in place in January rather than come up with a dozen alternatives, depending on where their schools end up. And allow fans like us something more concrete to speculate about

[PurplePunch]

Technically, Center Point is south of I 10, and Junction and Ozona are on it, like Weimar, but obviously not between Houston and San Antonio. I didn’t remember Sabinal and D’Hanis being in District 15 - talk about some travel! If that happens, 215 miles from Bracketville to Shiner, and you have to go through San Antonio!

In my mind, those two schools, with no D 1 schools closer than 200 miles to the south or east, are what kept Mason, Junction, Harper anchored to Region 4, but with the events of this realignment who knows?

[ComancheAlumni06]

The 2000-2002 alignment consisted of Falls City, Runge, Charlotte, D’Hanis, Sabinal and Shiner. And I believe the district was D 31. Back then 1A only had one champion. No divisions.

[hardrockers]

I like how out there Seymour and Olney are. They either get pulled way southwest, or way north east. No easy drive, just bet they go together.

[Windthorstfan]

I didn’t remember Sabinal and D’Hanis being in District 15 - talk about some travel! If that happens, 215 miles from Bracketville to Shiner, and you have to go through San Antonio!

I had Falls City and Runge going west to Rocksprings then realized they would have to go through San Antonio to do so, so I moved them to the east district.

[PurplePunch]

Long ago I was coaching in Leander. Our district included Lampasas, Georgetown, Taylor: nice trips. The not-so-nice trips were Westlake, Del Valle, Lockhart, and Bastrop, because you had to go through Austin. Varsity Football wasn’t too bad, but sub-varsity was terrible, and Basketball was worse. The driver earned his $25 on those trips. The UIL seems to be doing better, but driving through a city should be a NO in determining alignment.

[ComancheAlumni06]

I hear that, I feel like I kept away from that for the most part. The only districts where major cities might be a concern are the teams in the Waco and Dallas areas. But I think a lot of those can go around Dallas, and we’ll Waco ain’t to bad. Well that I know of

[ComancheAlumni06]

This will be the hot topic here soon

[Windthorstfan]

I like how out there Seymour and Olney are. They either get pulled way southwest, or way north east. No easy drive, just bet they go together.

Saw an mock alignment that has Seymour going south th to District 3 which includes Ozona. That would be a heck of a drive!!

That alignment has Olney going east into District 4 with the old D5 teams, C'ville and VV.

[hardrockers]

I won't say thats dumb, because you never know what the UIL will do, but that sure does look silly... lol

[ComancheAlumni06]

I agree, I don’t see that happening

[Windthorstfan]

I won't say thats dumb, because you never know what the UIL will do, but that sure does look silly... lol

Matt Stepp from DCTF had a DII mock that had Archer City, Electra, Munday, Petrolia, and Quanah in District 8. In District 9 he had Era, Muenster, Santo, Tioga, and Windthorst. Windthorst and Archer City are much closer than Seymour/Olney.

In those scenarios would think it would make more sense to move Petrolia to the east.

[Windthorstfan]

Stepp's DI Realignment
District 1: Amarillo Highland Park, Boys Ranch, Panhandle, Sanford-Fitch, Sunray, West Texas
District 2: Floydada, Hale Center, New Deal, Olton, Sundown

District 4: Forsan, Hawley, Post, Stamford, Winters

District 8: Alto, Beckville, Cushing, Garrison, Price Carlisle, Tenaha, Timpson
District 9: Axtell, Cayuga, Cross Roads, Italy, Itasca, Kerens
District 10: Centerville, Hearne, Jewett Leon, Marlin, Riesel, Rosebud-Lott

District 14: Brackettville, Center Point, Harper, Kenedy, Sabinal
District 15: Refugio, Shiner, Wallis Brazos, Weimar, Yorktown
District 16: Ben Bolt, Freer, Riviera Kaufer, Santa Maria, Three Rivers

I like Stepps mocks. At every level I think they look the most realistic, but still never know.

[Pigskin Swammy]

https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mi ... 165217&z=7

I like this map.. However I think you move Ozona district 3 to district 16, Move mason district 16 to district 7, Move Deleon district 7 to district 3 to replace Ozona.. Does away with the Seymour to Ozona drive.

[Windthorstfan]

I like Stepps mocks. At every level I think they look the most realistic, but still never know.

What's funny about Stepp's is he has DeLeon with Ozona. Pretty sure I suggested that when the division cut-offs came out and I got jumped for even suggesting it!!!

Then the other district in R1 could be Junction, MAson, Goldthwaite, San Saba, Ozona, and De Leon

Ozona is over 200 miles from De Leon, a 4+ hour bus ride. That would be completely ridiculous given how close we are to other 2A schools.

[OskeeWowWow]

I think you took that the wrong way if you thought I was "jumping" YOU for it. It was more of a "man, I really hope that doesn't happen!". NOTHING will surprise me when it comes to this kind of thing.

[Windthorstfan]

I understand!! Was just jerking your chain...With these division alignments there are going to be a couple of schools "screwed" in the travel department!!! The 2 5A teams in Wichita Falls are looking at their shortest road trip outside of playing each other being Abilene Wylie, other than that 2 hour road trip the others will probably by 3.5-4 hour trips if they get sent west as projected.

[OskeeWowWow]

That's brutal. I understand that happening - to some degree - to towns that are pretty isolated. We just seem to have so many more schools that would be closer to us than Ozona, guess someone has to get hosed.

I have heard that some years the San Angelo and Amarillo big schools get hotel rooms for district games because the drive was so rough.
