  • Mike Says: The Wildcats use a pretty tough pre-district schedule to get ready for the playoffs and it works. They will once again be a tough out come playoff time. They return and amazing 28 lettermen an 19 total starters from last years 8-4 squad. Wade, Michener and Vondra are all DI recruits. Look for them to go 8-2 or 9-1 in the regular season and win District 6-3A. If Mineral Wells makes the playoffs then that makes the Wildcats are very big Division II team in the playoffs. They are good enough to make the Area or Regionals in the playoffs.
  • Chris Says: Kennedale should have no trouble winning their district.  The only wild card will be Springtown dropping down to Class 3A who they get as their first district game.  The Wildcats will be tested early against teams like Argyle and three Class 4A teams (Crowley, Mansfield Legacy, Texarkana Texas High) so may not have the best record.  The WILL be ready for postseason play though.
