Latest Associated Press Rankings Yield Little Change Among East Texas Schools

Once again, there wasn't much movement among East Texas schools in the latest Associated Press high school football rankings, which were released Monday.

The only change occurred in Class A where West Sabine (8-0) moved up one spot to No. 6 after the Tigers' 62-0 rout of Cushing last Friday. Tenaha (7-1), 42-0 winners over Evadale, remained at No. 3.

In Class 4A, Whitehouse (9-0) held steady at No. 3 following its 45-14 defeat of Corsicana last week.

Gilmer (9-0) is once again the top-ranked team in 3A after the Buckeyes rolled to a 62-0 rout of Bullard last Friday. Kilgore (8-0) stayed at No. 3 after its 63-10 victory over Henderson, and Carthage (9-1) is still No. 7 after the Bulldogs completed a perfect run through District 20-3A with a 49-6 defeat of Diboll.

In 2A, Newton held onto the No. 2 position after the Eagles' 63-3 rout of Hardin. Tatum (9-0), which rolled to a 45-19 win at Jefferson last week, remained at No. 4. Hughes Springs is still ranked 10th following the Mustangs' 54-0 shutout of DeKalb.

Garrison, Corrigan-Camden, Daingerfield, Waskom and New Boston all received votes.

District 12-5A champion Longview (8-1) received five votes in the 5A poll after the Lobos' dominant 63-7 win over Tyler Lee last Thursday night.
