Mike Says: The Buccaneers will have a tough time duplicating last years success with a strong Newton team and 3A drop-down Kirbyville in the district. They should make the playoffs though but once there it will be difficult getting out of the region that has teams like Tatum and Crockett waiting. The run offense will be very good with all-state running back Roberts leading the way. They may have the best kicking game in Class 2A with a 1st Team All-District kicker and punter coming back. Look for them to go 7-3 or 8-2 in the regular season and finish 2nd or 3rd in the district behind Newton.

Chris Says: East Chambers will field another good team this year and they should do fine in district. Glenn Roberts will be relied on the carry the ball and the load on offense and as long has they protect him and give him daylight, the Buccaneers will do well. The playoff run is unlikely to duplicate last years success, but they should represent well.
