Mike Says: The Rockets enjoyed a pretty good season under 1st year head coach Smith. Look for them to improve even more this year. They have a top notch schedule with games against Cibolo, Lake Travis and Smithson Valley. Look for them to win 8 or 9 games in the regular season with the game against Smithson being for the district title. They should make a run to the Quarterfinals this year.

Chris Says: Converse Judson is a program that brings excitement every time the helmet is strapped on. They have some great games this year against some of the best teams in the state. I can't wait! Coach Mark Smith has things headed in the right direction and once again will have the Rockets competing at a high level. The game against Smithson Valley will once again determine the District 25-5A champion. I think they crack the double digits this season with 10 wins and a run 3 or 4 rounds deep in the playoffs.
