District 1-4A and District 2-4A high school football resumes this Thursday night, Sept 24th, when Irvin meets Chapin at 7 p.m. at Burges High School’s new artificial turf field. District 1-5A action returns on Friday, Sept 25th with four games on the slate.

After two weeks of District 1-5A play, the usual suspects sport 2-0 records against the league. Defending champion, Montwood, and perennial playoff combatants, Franklin and Coronado, own perfect district records.

There are two surprise teams in District 1-5A so far this year. El Dorado is 2-0 and Hanks is 1-1. Jim Althoff’s El Dorado Aztecs, 2-0/ 3-1, are a real load for any opponent. Althoff has been the coach at El Dorado since its inception and has already compiled a 12-12 record which is excellent for a new school.

Hanks has put together a 3-1/ 1-1 record suffering its first district loss to Montwood 35-14. Hank’s new QB, Matt Reyes, has already passed for 1021 yards in four games. He ... Read More »

Week four of the high school football season is very unique because all District 1-4A and District 2-4A teams will be enjoying  the week off as they get ready for district play in two weeks.

District 1-5A play opens up this week, the third week of the 2008 Football season, with four league games on the slate. Montwood will travel to Eastwood, Bel Air journeys to Hanks, Coronado invades Americas, and El Dorado makes a Thursday night appearance at the Socorro Athletic Complex to battle unbeaten Socorro. Franklin is idle this week. Having to play league games during the third week of the season does not give the Head Football Coaches at any of the schools very much time to correct mistakes made in the first two weeks of the 2008 campaign, especially the teams that have been losing games. At any rate, I pick Montwood, Hanks, Coronado, and El Dorado to win in District 1-5A play this week….. It’s a shame that the Canutillo-Andress game, scheduled for Andress this Friday night, September 12th, had to be moved out of Andress Stadium. The reason? Andress’ new Astro-Turf field could not be installed by the Contractors in time for the game thanks to the heavy rains falling on Northeast El Paso the ... Read More »
