Not enough healthy players.

Sad but if you have 6 man numbers, playing a varsity schedule can be difficult when grades and injuries happen.

Didn't Snook put in a turf field recently?

McDade had 110 last realignment. TEA enrollment reports show 111 last year in 9-12.
Next realignment based on the 24-25 enrollment report by grade
116
111
119
116

Last years 4th grade class (this year 5th grade) had 40 students.

There is also a report that breaks it by gender
Based on last year's enrollment numbers
56 males 8th-11th grade
57 males 7th-10th grade
56 males 6th-9th grade
55 males 5th-8th grade
59 males 4th-7th grade
59 males 3rd-6th grade
62 males 2nd-5th grade

Wow, didn't realize McDade and Snook were in the same district. McDade has 21 athletes in their JH program - 9 of which are 8th graders. With only one senior on this year’s varsity team, the Bulldogs could return 12 lettermen and nine freshmen for 2026

McDade is a growing community, too close to that greater Austin area. I’m stunned by these poor numbers though. Especially since I’m pretty sure they’ll never be 6-man again.

Itasca has joined the list of teams who have now cancelled the rest of their season. They were down to 13 players due to injuries.

Doesn’t surprise me. Below Burg’s senior class, there is a large void of talent from 8th-11th. Couple of juniors are decent, but they are screwed the next 4-6 years.

Abilene TLCA Eagles are now down to 12 players, with three games left to play in district. They still have to play, Stamford, Hawley, and Anson.

Windy, since you are from the area, do you know anything about the Olney ISD situation. We spoke to a lady from Olney, and she told us that they are on their second Superintendent and their second Head Football Coach since the first of the school year. Have you heard anything????

She also told us that her grandson is a junior and since Junior high, he has had five different football coaches.
