falcon fan, I have made the fearless prediction Stratford will not win distinct in 2007. They will go to the play-offs and do well. Either Canadian or Panhandle will defeat them in district play.
Bushland's best days are ahead of them. They will do nothing but get better year after year. They had better....they will be in 3A maybe next reclassification and 4A in not too many years. The Falcons will be tough in the future.
Muleshoe will probably make the play-offs. In 2A, Littlefield, Idalou. Wall, Cisco will have strong clubs in Region I. Division I or II depends on who else makes the play-offs more than likely. I have not looked into this. The teams coming out of District One may make some noise in the play-offs.
Childress will be competitive. They have to overcome the loss of one fine quarterback to graduation. The Cats have been able to do that in the past. Let's see what they look like after a few games. They do hit some stiff competition early.
Let me leave you with something to think about falconfan....there is a good chance at the next reclassification, Stratford may return to 1A......think about it.....

I guarantee you Stratford will go back down next alignment...their numbers are already at the 1A standards, but they are still a powerhouse even in 2A. District 1-2A will have some tough teams this year but look for the troublesome trio in 2-2A. Muleshoe, Friona, and Bushland will be some interesting match-ups to watch. Muleshoe being ranked in the top 15 and friona did beat them last year. Bushland is a team on the rise looking to make a statement this year, and they'll do it with some outstanding play at the skill positions. Remember the name... QB Austin Gilmore

Good observations falconfan. My friends tell me Panhandle and Friona will scrimmage this Saturday in Panhandle....
While scrimmages are difficult to ascertain the potential of a team, this could be interesting. Who do the Falcons scrimmage?
River Road and Childress scrimmage...this could be interesting...
Do you know of any others?

How did Bushland's scrimmage with Abernathy go falconfan? Abernathy is supposed to be one of the stronger teams in their district behind Littlefield and Childress.

I attended the Panhandle and Friona scrimmage. I thought is was fairly even. Chance the teams could meet again in the play-offs.

During the Bushland and Abernathy game it was POURING down rain, but it didn't seem to bother either team. It proved this time to be a defensive showdown. Bushland started off on defense and completely shut down everything the lopes could put together. Then on bushlands first offensive series they marched straight downfield and scored easily. Abernathy did wake up and not allow another score, but one was all that bushland needed.
final score 1-0
