Life begins in 6A: DSHS moving up in classification into district full of stiff competion
The long-awaited day has arrived. At 9 a.m. on February 3, the UIL unveiled the fate of all the members in Texas for the next two school years. All the speculation of what district you would be in became known. All the coaches in Texas found out as the district alignments were listed on the website. At that time coaches could start working on their schedules or start thinking about moving. The UIL selections can determine just how successful a school will likely be. Still, schedules cannot be chiseled in stone until the period for taking care of protests has finished.

Weather only thing that can slow down Lacrose
For the second year in a row, weather will delay the start of the Dripping Springs High School Boys Lacrosse season. After a couple of cancellations this past weekend, the Tigers will kick off their season this Wednesday night against Smithson Valley. The program, led by Coach Bill Cafferata in his 9th season at DSHS, returns 7 seniors and 8 juniors from a team that went 9-6, including a playoff win against Memorial.

Lady Tigers have an easy win
The Lady Tigers basketball team was able to play with less pressure allowing them to have success. This was the case in the 73-21 win over Lehman. Although the Lady Lobos are experiencing a winless season, they were still providing opposition to work against. Coach Batson substituted freely and everyone was able to get quality time and practice. What was encouraging was the players worked the ball much better and were looking for the open player. The more a player practices the correct moves the better they get at it and can perform the same maneuver against better teams. Practice makes perfect. Still left to work on is quality shooting skills for higher percentage accuracy. That won't come without extra gym time doing it correctly.

Cold snap jitters: Paranoia or PTSD?
As we held our breaths, awaiting last Thursday’s cold front, I probably wasn’t the only person in Dripping Springs who was looking back to last February’s “Snowpocalypse.” Okay. I’ll confess. I had been buying an extra case of water every week. I also was unpacking my heaviest sweaters, and yes, our family invested in a small propane generator.
