Tough way to lose that game but definitely the right call. The hole was there, but bad luck! Was really pulling for those guys and for Coach Walker. I never played for the guy, but I went through plenty with him during off-season workouts we were worked into (I played baseball). Not sure I’ve ever met a more intense person regarding high school athletics and it would have been a hell of story to win it all for him. Prayers for his family.
Both teams were/are playing for more than football. LH lost their coach to cancer this year and one of the player for Crosby (#57) lost a 2-1/2 yo nephew in a terrible drowning. They are close friends of ours and the community has really pulled around this family is a special kind of way. If you notice there are signs that say “do it for Sloan” and “it’s a great day for a miracle” in the stands. Sloan was the name of the boy who died and the fb prayer group was called “it’s a great day for a miracle”. Special games for both teams!
I just happened to catch the high school playoff highlights earlier this week and saw Crosby was still in it, didn’t realize they were going to be this good this year. May have to go watch the next game! Glad to see some local teams still in the mix
Who will they get next week?

Have family that lives in liberty hill and their sons went through that program, but also have ties to Crosby as I know their coaches wife from way back.
Glad for Crosby to have this kind of showing. If I heard right, this is their first state championship to play in since 1960.
