Here we go, it’s the moment everyone has been waiting for.
The 2022 season is scheduled to start this week and with it comes an entire new era for Katy ISD.
The addition of Paetow and Jordan adds new, fresh faces to District 19-6A as Katy ISD continues to cement themselves as one of the most powerful school districts in the entire state.
You only have to look at last season to see how far the district has come with its success. In 2021, Katy ISD produced a state champion in Paetow and a state semifinalst in Katy, it didn’t stop there though, as both Tompkins and Cinco Ranch come off regional semifinal appearances.
Last year was an exciting year in District 19-6A and this year it only looks like things will get crazier. Teams in Katy ISD averaged 7.8 wins per year last season—that’s the most out of any district in the entire classification of 6A.
Katy are still the frontrunners and the favorites in the district every year, and they claimed back the district trophy last season after losing it for the first time in 12 years in 2020. The Tigers bring back key pieces all around the field and the newcomers are expected to be ready to contribute right away in what should be another very strong season for the Tigers.
But this is far from a one-team district. Tompkins bring back a very strong team that has talent at every position. The Falcons were the ones that took the district crown from Katy in 2020 and after four straight seasons in which they’ve made the regional semifinals, they think they have what it takes to compete for that district crown again.
Then there’s Cinco Ranch, who brings back what has a chance to be one of the most high-powered offenses in the state. The Cougars are eplosive, and have played in big moments, having made it to last year’s Class 6A-Division II Regional Semifinal.
And Paetow has one of the most talented defenses in the entire state. They have four players that are among the top 165 recruits int the state of Texas in the Class of 2023 and all of them play in the defenses front seven. And that’s just the first wave, as Paetow’s secondary and offense boast plenty of talent that will give them a chance to compete with anyone in the district and state.
Morton Ranch brings back a strong team that includes an extremely talented running back and quarterback that will give the Mavericks a chance to compete for a playoff spot this year while Seven Lakes has no interest in letting its playoff streak end as they should boast a strong running game and defense.
Taylor brings back vastly more experience than last year as well and they are out to prove themselves, while Mayde Creek and Jordan are excited to show what they can do this season.
Overall, the talent level is as high as it has ever been throughout Katy ISD, and with all nine Katy ISD schools now in the same district, this could be one of the most exciting district seasons and one of the most exciting playoffs we have seen that could see multiple teams make deep runs in Class 6A.
Now, lets sit back and enjoy some football, I know I’m looking forward to it.
