Notes:
The Timberwolves knocked off the big kid on the block last year when they defeated Austin Lake Travis for the district championship. The bad news is that Austin Lake Travis got revenge and defeated them in the Quarterfinals on their way to their fourth consecutive state championship. This season it will be tough to duplicate last years success with the loss of so many good players. The defense will have to lead the way until the offense led by the districts player of the year Hogan can get the offense running.
