The Schulenburg and Round Top-Carmine volleyball teams continued their march towards a state title with victories in the regional quarterfinals Tuesday. Sweep Skidmore In Seguin, the Lady Horns beat Skidmore-Tynan 25-17, 25-22, 25-15.

Schulenburg football player Adam Thompson has contributed in many ways for a Shorthorns team that just picked up their fifth win of the season against Thrall last Friday. Thompson doesn’t only snap the ball to the quarterback as the team’s center and make blocks, he also makes tackles on the other side of the ball as a linebacker.

The Flatonia Bulldogs aren’t going to the playoffs, but they played like they were Friday, rallying from a 22-point deficit and nearly beating undefeated Holland before falling 37-36. A late two-point conversion try by Flatonia (5-5 overall, 2-4 in district) was stopped and that proved to be the game winner.
