Not willing to see their stellar 2010 season end just yet, the Broncos are getting their game faces on in preparation for their next playoff game with Seymour.
The District Champions are fired up and ready to play for the Area Championship this Saturday in Lubbock at Lubbock Cooper High.
After breaking the 29-year District Champion drought, the Broncos are more than determined to be playing well into December as they vie for a state berth. Because of earning a bye in the first round of playoffs, the Broncos will move on to the Area round, which is just a stepping-stone away from where they want to be. They know the game with Seymour will be tough, but they are ready and willing to do what it takes to get the win.
“Seymour went 6-4 on the season and beat New Deal in the first round of the playoffs,” head coach Gary Jack said. “New Deal had lost about three starters so they weren’t the team we saw early in our season, but Seymour is a tough team and is out of a really tough district.”
The Panthers finished third to Albany (10-0) and Stamford (9-1) who are both ranked high in the standings. Jack knows the Broncos will have to play hard.
“It will be tough from here on out,” Jack said. “There are good quality teams left. It will be a very exciting game.”
The game will be played Saturday, November 20 at Lubbock Cooper High in Lubbock at 2:00 in the afternoon.
“Lubbock Cooper has a brand new stadium and we’re expecting a big Bronco crowd,” Jack said.
To find Lubbock Cooper take the Tahoka Highway exit from Loop 289 and go five or six miles south.
There will be a bonfire at the McAnears’ farm south of Clarendon on Hwy. 70 on November 18 at dusk. Also there will be a Bronco send-off at 8:30 a.m. on Kearney Street.
