BULLARD -- Brook Hill faced an interesting situation around 8 p.m. Saturday. It convinced St. John Paul II of Boca Raton, Florida, to fly in for a high-profile opening-week game, but a thunderstorm was not letting up well past an hour after first kick was scheduled. You can't just chalk up a game to weather when the opponent flies more than 1,000 miles to make it happen. You can't let them only re

NACOGDOCHES – It was supposed to be a matchup of playoff contenders. For much of the first half, it was. Then Nacogdoches turned on the afterburners.

MINEOLA -- Garrett Moseley stopped and sat on a ledge against Meredith Memorial Stadium's away side stands after the game. He was totally exhausted and only halfway back to Van's locker room. Moseley ran for five touchdowns Friday in the Vandals' 41-21 win versus Mineola. The quarterback, who looked a lot like old Oklahoma signal caller Blake Bell on this particular night, accepted praise from fan
