Strength of schedule matters!

With all sorts of early shake ups in the basketball world, the Atascocita Eagles find their way back on top. The Eagles are 15-2 on the season only falling to Westfield in the first game of the season and to a well seasoned San Antonia Wagner.

Early surprises in the season are Ridge Point, Travis, and Manvel, with all three racking up some early pre-district wins.

Yates saw a few hardships while waiting on transfer clearings. Morton Ranch's Cryer and Lampkin both caught the injury bug as did Dickinson's Deuce Guidry and Marcus Williams. All is fair in the game of basketball so other guys have to step up!
