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

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
