Going to change things up a bit and give the district standings and look at the upcoming three weeks schedule.
Also going to give a “target wins” for each district. This number of wins in district play would more than likely secure a playoff spot. One win over this would certainly guarantee a playoff spot. Depending on the district, it may require fewer wins but we will discuss specifics per district more as we get later in the season.
| 13-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| New Caney | (5-0) | (3-0) | Open | vs Conroe | at Grand Oaks |
| College Park | (2-2) | (2-0) | vs Caney Creek | at Willis | vs The Woodlands |

| Conroe Caney Creek | (1-4) | (0-3) | at College Park | OPEN | vs Willis |
Target Wins – 5
Caney Creek is more or less in a must win situation the remainder of the season.
Best of fortunes to Grand Oak’s AD Dr. Micahel Jackson as he deals with extended family health issues. Wishing the best for you in the future.
| 14-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Spring Westfield | (3-1) | (1-0) | vs DeKaney | vs Nimitz | vs Eisenhower |
| Aldine Nimitz | (3-1) | (1-0) | at Eisenhower | at Westfield | at Davis |
| Aldine Davis | (3-1) | (1-0) | at Spring | at DeKaney | vs Nimitz |
| Spring DeKaney | (2-2) | (1-0) | at Westfield | vs Davis | vs Aldine |
| Spring | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Davis | vs Aldine | vs MacArthur |
| Aldine MacArthur | (1-3) | (0-1) | at Aldine | at Eisenhower | at Spring |
| Aldine Eisenhower | (0-4) | (0-1) | vs Nimitz | vs MacArthur | at Westfield |
| Aldine | (0-4) | (0-1) | vs MacArthur | at Spring | at DeKaney |
Target Wins – 4
The Aldine/ MacArthur game is pretty much an elimination game.
| 15-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Klein Collins | (4-0) | (1-0) | at Waller | vs Tomball Memorial | at Klein Forest |
| Klein Cain | (4-0) | (1-0) | at Klein | at Klein Forest | vs Klein Oak |
| Klein Forest | (3-1) | (1-0) | at Tomball Memorial | vs Klein Cain | vs Klein Collins |
| Tomball | (2-2) | (1-0) | at Klein Oak | vs Waller | vs Tomball Memorial |
| Klein Oak | (2-1) | (0-1) | vs Tomball | at Klein | at Klein Cain |
| Tomball Memorial | (2-2) | (0-1) | vs Klein Forest | at Klein Collins | at Tomball |
| Klein | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Klein Cain | vs Klein Oak | at Waller |
| Waller | (0-4) | (0-1) | vs Klein Collins | at Tomball | vs Klein |
Target Wins – 4
The four teams that won last week play the four teams that lost last week. If the same four win again this week, it will create big separation in the district. I would favor Klein Collins, Klein Cain to win. To me the Klein Forest/ Tomball Memorial game is very close. I’d favor Klein Oak to snap the streak with a win over Tomball.
| 16-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Cypress Ranch | (3-1) | (1-0) | vs Cy Springs | at Cy Park | at Bridgeland |
| Cypress Falls | (3-1) | (1-0) | at Langham Creek | vs Bridgeland | vs Cy Woods |
| Cypress Springs | (2-2) | (1-0) | at Cy Ranch | at Cy Lakes | at Langham Creek |
| Langham Creek | (2-2) | (1-0) | vs Cy Falls | at Cy Woods | vs Cy Springs |
| Cypress Woods | (2-2) | (0-1) | at Cy Lakes | vs Langham Creek | at Cy Falls |
| Bridgeland | (1-3) | (0-1) | at Cy Park | at Cy Falls | vs Cy Ranch |
| Cypress Lakes | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Cy Woods | vs Cy Springs | vs Cy Park |
| Cypress Park | (0-4) | (0-1) | vs Bridgeland | vs Cy Ranch | at Cy Lakes |
Target Wins – 4
The four teams that won last week play amongst themselves and the same for the four teams that lost last week. Obviously, the winners of the 1-0 match ups take a big step forward while the loser of the 0-1 match ups will be behind the 8-ball.
| 17-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Jersey Village | (4-0) | (1-0) | at Cy-Fair | at Cy Ridge | vs Cy Creek |

| Cypress Ridge | (1-3) | (1-0) | at Spring Woods | vs Jersey Village | vs Houston Memorial |
| Houston Stratford | (3-1) | (0-1) | at Cy Creek | vs Northbrook | at Spring Woods |
| Houston Memorial | (2-2) | (0-1) | at Northbrook | vs Spring Woods | at Cy Ridge |
| Houston Northbrook | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Houston Memorial | at Stratford | vs Cy-Fair |
| Houston Spring Woods | (0-4) | (0-1) | vs Cy Ridge | at Houston Memorial | vs Stratford |
Target Wins – 4
Having beaten Stratford last week Cy-Fair can take a huge step toward the district title with a win over Jersey Village this week. A Jersey Village win sets up a show down with Stratford in Week 11.
| 18-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Houston Lamar | (3-2) | (1-0) | vs Westside | at Westbury | vs Sam Houston |

| Houston Bellaire | (0-4) | (0-0) | vs Heights | at Westside | vs Westbury |
| Houston Sam Houston | (3-2) | (0-1) | Open | vs Chavez | at Lamar |
| Houston Heights | (2-3) | (0-1) | at Bellaire | OPEN | vs Westside |
| Houston Chavez | (1-4) | (0-1) | vs Westbury | at Sam Houston | OPEN |
Target Wins – 3
I still think Lamar and Heights are at the top of the district with Westbury, Westside and Sam Houston battling for the final two playoff spots.
| 19-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Katy | (5-0) | (3-0) | vs Jordan | at Paetow | OPEN |

| Katy Morton Ranch | (3-2) | (1-2) | at Seven Lakes | at Taylor | at Tompkins |
| Katy Seven Lakes | (0-4) | (0-2) | vs Morton Ranch | at Mayde Creek | vs Jordan |
| Katy Mayde Creek | (2-3) | (0-3) | at Cinco Ranch | vs Seven Lakes | at Katy Taylor |
Target Wins – 5
After Katy at the top, 19-6A is a muddled mess. Is Jordan a legit contender for the playoffs? We will find out over the next two weeks as they face off against Katy and then Cinco Ranch.
| 20-6A | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Fort Bend Ridge Point | (3-2) | (3-0) | at George Ranch | vs Elkins | at Clements |

| Fort Bend Bush | (0-4) | (0-2) | at Dulles | vs George Ranch | at Elkins |
| Fort Bend Austin | (2-3) | (0-3) | at Clements | OPEN | vs Travis |
Target Wins – 5
Ridge Point and George Ranch records look the same at 3-2 overall and 3-0 in district play. Don’t let that fool you. Ridge Point is a prohibitive favorite of George Ranch this week.
| 8-5AD1 | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Humble Kingwood Park | (4-1) | (3-0) | vs La Porte | vs Goose Creek Memorial | vs Baytown Lee |

| Baytown Sterling | (1-4) | (0-3) | at Porter | Open | vs Crosby |
Target Wins – 5
I have Kingwood Park, La Porte and Port Arthur Memorial very close to each other. Kingwood Park and La Porte face off this week. The winner still has to face Port Arthur Memorial with the district title likely on the line.
| 9-5AD1 | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |
| Galveston Ball | (4-0) | (2-0) | vs Sharpstown | at Austin | vs Milby |

| Houston Northside | (0-5) | (0-3) | Open | vs Wisdom | at Madison |
Target Wins – 5
Galveston Ball is still favored to run the table and secure a 10-0 record in the regular season. After the Tors I favor Madison, Waltrip, and Sterling to be the playoff teams.
| 10-5AD1 | Rec | Dist | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 |

| Rosenberg Terry | (2-3) | (0-3) | Open | vs Angleton | at Friendswood |
Target Wins – 5
Foster faces another tough road test at Magnolia West this week. After Foster I see 5 teams competing for the final 3 spots. A couple of really good teams won’t make the playoffs in this district.

| Fort Bend Marshall | (3-1) | (1-0) | at Santa Fe | at Texas City | vs Nederland |

| Fort Bend Willowridge | (0-4) | (0-1) | at Galena Park | at Port Neches-Groves | at Texas City |
Target Wins – 4
It’s early but don’t be surprised if when we look back the Dayton/ Nederland game determined the 4th playoff spot in this district.

| Huntsville | (1-4) | (0-1) | vs Lamar Consolidated | at Rudder | Open |
Target Wins – 3
Lake Creek has been the class of this district. I don’t see a huge separation between the other six teams, so every game is a critical game.

| Houston North Forest | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Furr | at Washington | vs Worthing |
| Houston Scarborough | (1-3) | (0-1) | vs Yates | vs Kashmere | at Wheatley |
Target Wins – 4
The four teams that won last week play the four teams that lost last week. I think Washington, Furr and Yates are big favorites. Kashmere should handle Worthing.

Navasota tries to avoid an 0-2 district start against Bay City in a game I have rated as a pick’em.
