The La Grange JV Purple lost 28-0 to Taylor last week. The offense moved the ball pretty well down the field, but struggled putting it in the endzone. With the exception of a few big plays, the defense played pretty well overall. Nathan Scott had a forced fumble and recovery.

As part of the season-long celebration of UIL 100 Years of Football, Giddings vs. La Grange has been nominated as being one of the Top 100 rivalries in the history of UIL Texas High School Football.

The Schulenburg volleyball team defeated Waelder 25-7, 25-2, 25-20 Tuesday as the Lady Horns improved to 12-8 overall and 5-0 in district. Erica Otto had eight kills and three aces.

La Grange senior quarterback Matthew Johnson said he is planning to return to action this week against Lago Vista, the first time he’s been back in a game since the opening minutes of the season opener when he suffered a concussion.

Even though there were none of their own fans there to see it, the Round Top-Carmine volleyball team won its most important match of the season to-date Tuesday in Fayetteville. In a battle between two teams that came into the match atop the district standings with 4-0 records, Round Top-Carmine swept Fayetteville 25-22, 25-18, 25-10.

The non-district portion of their schedule was frustrating for the La Grange volleyball team but they put that behind them in a big way Tuesday as the Lady Leps went to Manor New Tech and swept them 25-11, 25- 3, 25-11.

Brett Janecek has taken the reins of the quarterback position as a senior for Schulenburg High School football and is off to an impressive start. Schulenburg is currently 4-0 with their most recent win on the road against district opponent Flatonia, who was also undefeated until last Friday. Janecek had a perfect completion percentage going five for five and added a rushing touchdown in a hard-fought victory that came down to the very last play. “He’s a good leader for our kids”, said Schulenburg head football coach Walt Brock. “He helps get kids to practice, he calls them. He does such a great job in the classroom, on the field, and outside of school. We appreciate his hard work ethic and leadership skills.”

The Schulenburg Shorthorns have cracked the state’s Top 10 for the first time in years after their 4-0 start. The Shorthorns debut at No. 8 in this week’s rankings. Schulenburg is in a district with the state’s No.
