Being an bEeast Texas Kid Lufkin Dunbar is legendary as well as Panhandle Douglasville in Bball as small school PVIL. My parents and grandparents taught me about it and my Unc was a 100m Champ. T&F is deep in my family. PVIL & UIL Champs and State qualifiers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilDog Posted February 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 @Horsefly Sir check out the 3:30 mark and the commentary. Such a beloved league. Though the big schools integrated in 1966. A lot of small schools remained segregated till 1970. How good was Lufkin Dunbar 4 straight PVIL champs and in 1968 their 1st year in the UIL still an All Black team. They went to State and lost 7 - 6 to A School that Would become a bEast Texas powerhouse after integrating. Daingerfield had sucked forever.

Indeed and if I remember they met up in a national 100 on TV. Both were big time sprinters. Our football kids are big in T&F. Big meet here in Lancaster coming up. If weather is nice will be at my 1st track meet of the season. Our Outdoor is off and running 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
