District 5-4A football Breakdown |
|
In early February, the University Interscholastic League realigned the districts for the 2008-2010 school years based on school enrollment. With distant Sherman and Denison moving much closer to home to compete in the newly aligned District 9-4A and the UIL's announcement of four teams from each district advancing to the playoffs, change is everywhere for Wichita Falls High.
While Sherman and Denison were certainly formidable opponents, the addition of former 5A program The Colony, a beefier, more experienced Denton Guyer team and the additions of successful Lake Dallas and Little Elm, 5-4A can definitely make a case as being one of the toughest 4A football districts in Texas High School Football.
