Nice moment at Legacy Stadium in Katy last night as Taylor DE Max Wright (A&M) dressed for the final time, as he is to undergo surgery for his second torn ACL, went out for the coin toss as a captain and actually walked onto the field with the defense before walking back to the sideline to a standing ovation.

Converse Judson looks like a legitimate contender in Class 6A after defeating Cibolo Steele.  I think this is a down year for the Houston area 6A schools as the State Titles should be divided up between North Texas, San Antonio or Austin area schools.

Manvel is just flat out nasty in 5A and with Aledo classified as Div II, there is no chance of a meeting.  My prediction last season was Manvel vs. Denton Ryan for the title game and both lost prior.  I'll stick to that prediction again this year.  The window is closing for Manvel with the opening of Shadow Creek HS in Pearland, as that school draws enrollment from an area that Manvel drew kids from.  Shadow Creek HS is also in the Alvin ISD.

Casey Thompson had himself a game tallied over 400 yards of offense.
