Strength = Same
No change in District 1.
|
Strength = Weaker
The loss of the Midland and Odessa schools means losing four of the top five teams from ’09.
|
Strength = Stronger
The Little SWC is back together again, which makes for a strong district. The return of Cooper is a very strong addition.
|
Strength = Weaker
Added bottom three teams in ’09 from weaker District 3 while losing Summit and Mansfield teams who’ve made noise in past.

Strength = Stronger
Previous 5-5A was home to state champion Euless Trinity. However, the new district is tougher top to bottom.
|
Strength = Weaker
The group over from 5-5A trades the Keller schools for the Irving schools and added Haltom and Richland. Stronger in #’s, not sure about overall quality.
|
Strength = Stronger
Any district that adds SLC, Coppell and Guyer becomes instantly stronger.
|
Strength = Stronger
Top to bottom, this could be the strongest district in the state. 8-5A loses the bottom three from ’09 and adds four playoff capable teams.
