Sounds like you guy's are reloading as always. And I will give updates on the freshmen team thru out the season. I can tell you one thing for sure is our Ateam will have only about 25 kids. I think they only have about 45 on the freshmen team this year. Thanks Antlers for keeping me up on the team! we had about 150-160 8th graders last year at the beginning of the season but only carried about 28 or so on A team, 50 on B team, and the rest were on the C team which they called a 'developmental team'. No matter the small numbers of Tivy's fresh class, they've got to be a heck of a group of kids! You can only play 11 anyway!

This midnight madness practice is a really good idea. Might have to push this for Calhoun, I know the community would pay to come out and watch a couple hours of practice. Great idea!!! I agree. Great idea to get the community even more involved as well as all the other things Antlers mentioned. Pretty damn cool indeed!

Yes sir. My boy is a freshman. They started today but have been at it hard all summer. We had strength and conditioning all summer long and then had a football camp last week. Should be a very, very good matchup between our two teams provided we don't have too many of our studs moved up to JV or varsity early in the year. WE have several who will most likely end up on varsity this year. Before Jinks left, he'd spoken with 6 or 7 about just that. Coach Lehnhoff may handle it differently with the youngsters, but maybe now. Our #1 RB is most certainly one of them. He is probably about 5'7"-5'8" and around 170-175, FAST, very strong, great vision & balance.......he has the entire package for sure. Then we have a couple of big fellas that may get some time as well and another who's big bro will be our varsity starting QB this year. This young man is pretty small but is lightening in a bottle and probably the absolute best CB I've ever seen at the middle school level. He has the potential to be a complete lockdown CB at the varsity level by the end of his soph year. Please keep me informed on how the Antler's freshman are doing. I've heard a ton of good stuff about that bunch through one of my sales reps who's son goes to Bandera but plays select baseball with several Antlers. In fact, he's already gotten a schedule from me and plans to attend the A team game between us this year at Steele. LOL always confused, he playing for Clemens or Steele? Tom, he's a fresh at Steele and my girl is a SR this year. I am a Clemens grad but made the switch to Steele in their first year due to having nephews playing f-ball & basketball as well as a niece that played on 2 of the state tourney basketball teams. It was very, very hard to sit in the stands at Lehnhoff (formerly Clemens Stadium) on the opposite side of my beloved Blue & Gold that first year! Don't get me wrong, I still support the Buffs, but I have been a 'Steele Guy' now the last 7 seasons.

Heh... oh, believe me, when I was in middle school my mom was worried that I was going to go to her old HS's rival! Of course, she taught at her old HS and the district let me get a transfer because of that. That kind of thing happens when new high schools are built though. My mentor in the local bar association in Denton was an old Denton High grad, but now if I'm not mistaken his kid goes to Guyer.
