The
football season is broken up into four parts: the preseason, non-district play,
district play and the playoffs. We have now completed 2 out of the 4 and in
many ways it is going to be like starting over for us when we enter district
play. It has certainly been a tough week
but we now have a week off to get some things figured out.
The
football season is always a journey and while it may not feel that way and
there may be more obstacles in our way we currently have the same record as last
season. For those that are new, last
year we went undefeated in district play and advanced to the state semifinals
where we lost a very close game to the eventual state champion. It is always about closing the gap and this
team has by no means reached it’s potential.

JV Game
I believe
that everyone knows this already but the JV game against Woodlands Christian
was canceled because they do not have enough players. We still have two scheduled with Bay Area and
another one with Fort Bend.
Schedule
I know
there are a few of you wondering why we play such a tough schedule. I am actually one of those people as
well. I wanted to share a little insight
just in case you are wondering. First, I
had a much easier schedule made and then TAPPS changed its mind on re-alignment
and two non-district teams were moved into our district. Second, we have had a lot of success and
earned respect across the state so about 10 teams that I contacted refused to
play us. Third, travel and finding teams that will also play JV play a factor.
Fourth, scheduling is done in two year blocks so sometimes a tough game this
year will be an easier game next year. Fifth, transfer students change everything
in TAPPS football. Finally, I do believe that it prepares us for District play
and the playoffs so hopefully that holds true this year.
Annual Banquet
There is
no varsity game this Friday night so I want to encourage you to come to the
school’s Annual Banquet. It will be a
fun evening featuring the Jesus Painter, the comedy of Bob Smiley, a live
auction with a long list of great packages for everyone (Hunting Trips, Texan
Tickets, Artwork, Week at Disney and much more) and an address from our Head of
School, Mr. Novotny. One project that
the banquet will be raising money towards is our weight room and locker room
expansion under the grandstand.
