I keep thinking in my head how awsome it would have been to take on the top dog in D2 our first year in and see how they faired, AledoAlumni what do you think the result would have been? Yalls offense would have given us problems. Just like they did everyone else. However I think our defense adjust and does enough to win us the game. I had no worries about yalls defense, they gave up 42, 53, and 62. I think Aledo continues that trend and scores a lot of points. I think yall would have been a more difficult game to be honest but the result is the same. Aledo wins #10. Now the fun part begins. Now yall have to defend yalls region 4 title. No one has been able to accomplish that since Cedar Park in 2015. Good luck moving forward! 5AD2 Region 4 winners: 2014- Cedar Park 2015- Cedar Park 2016- Calallen 2017- Austin McCallum 2018- Calallen 2019- Boerne Champion 2020- Liberty Hill

I’m not sure I understand why this would be in doubt. They were a 2 point conversion away from playing in the State Finals, of course they belong. I wouldn’t be shocked, however if they’re in 5A Div 1 in the next realignment and then in 6A immediately after that. Like some of you said, the growth out there is nuts. How long before LH is looking at 6a do you think?

I am not AA but watching LH play 3 times this year and Aledo just once, I think Aledo runs away from LH. LH would score but Aledo would dominate up front and they are too good defensively. Game would end about the same score as the Aledo/Crosby game did....maybe a slightly smaller gap in score.

How long before LH is looking at 6a do you think? Great question. I would think it’s possible in the next 5 years; the area they draw from is in a massive area west of Georgetown and North of Leander and developers are building out master planned neighborhoods left and right. LH posters may have better info, I’m a Rouse Dad but live in the general area.

LH posters may have better info, I’m a Rouse Dad but live in the general area. I am thinking the same with which the rate they've been growing recently. Pretty incredible growth for sure in that entire area there. Schertz & Cibolo have experienced much the same the past 30 or so years and now that growth is pushing even further east and west from that area out towards IH10 (St Hedwig) and towards Marion to the East

Ive been here going on 21 years. The growth has resulted in now multiple elementaries, two JR highs, and now a massive expansion of a moderately new HS. My wife teaches in the district, and its seems like new students are being added weekly. Further, with plans to bring out 183A toll to 29, more expansion will follow, just as bring 183A to just before the river brought expansion. Limitation here now is utilities, particularly sewer for large housing tracts, but I think they are also working that out. Bottom line, wouldnt surpirse me to see LH in 5A D1 in next realignment or two.
I assume St Hedwig still has martinez social club? What a place.

Wow yes, those utilities (infrastructure) will be built and done so in a hurry with it booming like it is to allow even more growth there. They've built two water treatment plants with 8 miles of our place in the last 2 years....the 2nd is being completed now. Within 18 months of the 1st one being completed there are a couple new subdivisions adjacent IH10 on the south side where at least 1,000 new homes have already been built and they are slapping more up every day. The Martinez Social Club is still going. That is down the road in Martinez about 3/4 of the way to the east side of SA from us. St Hedwig has Lubianski's Hall and the Legion hall. We also have the old St Hedwig Club known to us locals as Dutch's place but it has been closed for years now and Dutch passed about 4 years ago. It is a shame really that his family doesn't get it up and going again as something tells me it would be a big hit with the way folks like those 'old timey' places like that today. We also have one of the oldest and most beautiful Catholic Churches in the state. So far they have kept the subdivisions at bay with city ordnances that you must have at least 5 acres to build but I would guess that will get overturned soon enough when the money hungry developers get everything built out up to the borders of the city limits. pacweb.alamo.edu/InteractiveHistory/projects/rhines/StudentProjects/1998/StHedwig/ST.html

LHHS is going to zoom right past 5A D1. 5A D2 in 2022-23, 6A in 2024-25, then possibly 5A again in 2026.

They went undefeated in district. The question is not if they can play 5A-D2 but if they can play 5A-D1? They will be able to shortly... at least size wise. Maybe not the 22-23 alignment, but definitely 24-25. In fact it wouldn’t surprise me if they only spent one alignment in 5a D1 one alignment... as fast as they are growing! Unless they start building another HS! My wife and I took a drive up North on Ronald Regan and they are building developments like crazy and all are saying LH ISD! I drove up there a little while ago too and it is growing by leaps and bounds. The will be 6A soon if they do not build another HS.

I would say 5 years and they be on the 6A range. Most likely a second school would be built by then.

Took a wait and see with Liberty Hill last year. Wanted to see where they finished vs the schedule they played. They ran through their Non District and District schedule like I thought they would. There wasn't much legit competition there. Then they put up an Impressive Run in the playoffs and set the bar for their 5A expectations very high. So I have Expectations this year. they should again roll easily through the season to the playoffs. But I don't know if the can go as far in the playoffs as 2020. Teams have seen them now. They are not the unknown they were last season. We will start to find out soon.

I haven't seen that type of offense be dominant on the higher classifications so it will be interesting to see how they do. Some teams have had some success like Hays and Tascosa but wouldn't stand up to the more talented and elite programs like Katy, AW, or NS.

Some teams have had some success like Hays and Tascosa but wouldn't stand up to the more talented and elite programs like Katy, AW, or NS. I agree with you but at the same time you are listing teams that are much, MUCH larger than LH is right now. Hell, WL's defense would have absolutely shut down that LH offense last year. The bottom line is I think as long as they continue to grow and get bigger, faster, stronger they will be able to compete in 5a D1 and even 6a D2 if they get that size. They are a well coached team that gets after it and that is what it takes no matter what you are running offensively. What they lacked in size up front last year they made up with heart and tenacity. That same heart and tenacity doesn't match up with much bigger/stronger fronts like you see in the 6a teams but they don't need to worry about that for a while still at LH.

I can see MF giving a better ball game this against LH. They are returning 15 starters or played significant amount of playing time on both sides. OB and two RB along with a strong o-line. Not saying they will beat LH, but see them at 9-1 or 8-2 going into the playoffs. Yes a week schedule through out but a team that Pioneer a run for there money last year!
