For high school coaches around the state, realignment isbrsort of like a new gift on Christmas. Sometimes, you can get the ultimate giftbr— a very manageable district and playoff path — and sometimes, you getbrsomething you just don't want.
In this scenario, Southlake Carroll head coach Hal Wassonbrmust have felt like the football Santa Claus brought him a big lump of coalbrthis year. The Dragons went from being in a somewhat competitive district tobrarguably the most competitive district in all of 6A.
State powers Euless Trinity and Coppell and well-respectedbrteams Colleyville Heritage and LD Bell create a rigorous ride to yet anotherbrdistrict title for Southlake Carroll.
But as Wasson said, each game is as important as the nextbrand the only thing that matters in the end is the final score.
