Dripping Life

Like you, my heart has been with the victims, their parents, children and the people of Uvalde. My mind struggles with how such a horrendous act could have ever been conceived – and, honestly, I question how such a terrible mission was ever envisioned by a person with so little life experience. 06/09/2022 12:00 AM

Looking back at the "Glory Days"

Looking back at the "Glory Days"

As many former athletes are prone to do, they get together and relive the days when they played sports in high school. Bruce Springsteen's “Glory Days” alludes to this very phenomenon in his song. Of course, it is not uncommon to have those days stretched in greatness as remembrances do not match the stats or reduced due to the modesty of the individual. Well, Dripping Springs is one of the few schools in the state that has complete stats for most varsity sports for athletes or anyone else to peruse for recall information. DSHS has been involved in sports since around 1915 but most of the information starts in the 1950's. It provides scores, season individual stats, school sport records, season/career Hall of Honor categories, coaching records, championship teams, history and much, much more. Despite the information provided, there are still gaps. It is expected individuals probably kept scrapbooks and can help make the information more complete. If that is you, then please contact us and we can fill in. 06/09/2022 12:00 AM

Tiger baseball all-district selections

Tiger baseball all-district selections

For the Tigers baseball team, the season came and went all too soon — but the awards from that season continue to show up. The team had its usual ups and downs, but when it was all said and done, the Tigers would finish with an 18-13 season with a tie for second place. The Tigers playoff run was short-circuited quickly. That did not keep the quality of the players from being recognized in the district honors being passed around to those who deserved it. The coaches meet just after the district schedule has concluded and vote on the individuals honored. Even though players are selected for a position, the truth is many of the players are called upon to play several positions as the situation calls for. Below are the Dripping Springs players selected for their skills and academics. 06/09/2022 12:00 AM
