Word was that CTJ was skipping this one, but they’re here! We’ll be able to see the “full-show-on-field-by-September” effect strike again!

Way too early finalist and class champion predictions:
Birdville H.S., TX Brazoswood H.S., TX Claudia Taylor Johnson H.S., TX John B. Alexander H.S., TX Pioneer H.S., TX Roma H.S., TX San Benito H.S., TX United H.S., TX Weiss H.S., TX Winston Churchill H.S., TX
A: Santa Rosa H.S., TX AA: Sharyland H.S., TX AAA: Weiss H.S., TX AAAA: Claudia Taylor Johnson H.S., TX
Bubble bands: Del Rio H.S., TX Edinburg H.S., TX Juarez-Lincoln H.S., TX Rio Grande City H.S., TX Robert Vela H.S., TX
This regional has been interesting and somewhat unpredictable the last couple of years. For example, Juarez-Lincoln placing 6th in 2017 and dropping to 24th in 2018. San Benito placing 16th in 2017 but shooting up to 4th in 2018. Edinburg North placing 4th in 2017 and plummeting to 18th in 2018. The last few finalist bands will be pretty unpredictable, hence the amount of bubble bands.

Sorry for being a broken record, but Weiss was only AA because they didn't have a senior class yet. They'll be quite comfortably AAA next year, but I still think they have a good shot at taking the class title. I'd also like to throw in McNeil to the bubble bands, but that might just be my inner district homer talking.

No, I love the class corrections, because I just got based off of the recaps of the previous years instead of actually digging into enrollment numbers lol. Thank you!

Either them or Alexander. Anything can happen early season! Probably one of those two, but as previously stated, this is a completely unpredictable contest. Could we maybe see a United or Pioneer or San Benito get up there and mix it up? San Benito went from 16th to 4th in a year. Conversely, Juarez Lincoln dropped from 6th to 24th in a year. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see more extreme flip-flops like this. That being said, Pioneer has been the most consistent out of the 3. I’d put my money on them or Brazoswood if not Churchill or Alexander!

Finalist tiers (in ABC order) and class predictions. This is historically one of the most unpredictable regionals, so I’m sure there will be some surprises, which is why my finalist bubble is pretty big. I believe all have made finals before, or have been close. That 3rd AAA spot could go to either James Pace or Robert Vela, as well.
John B. Alexander H.S., TX Winston Churchill H.S., TX ————— Brazoswood H.S., TX Pioneer H.S., TX Roma H.S., TX San Benito H.S., TX ————— Birdville H.S., TX Del Rio H.S., TX McNeil H.S., TX United H.S., TX ————— Edinburg North H.S., TX Hidalgo Early College H.S., TX James Pace H.S., TX Rio Grande City H.S., TX Robert Vela H.S., TX Sharyland H.S., TX
Class A: 1) Santa Rosa H.S., TX
Class AA: 1) Pioneer H.S., TX 2) Hidalgo Early College H.S., TX 3) Sharyland H.S., TX
Class AAA: 1) Roma H.S., TX 2) Birdville H.S., TX 3) Rio Grande City H.S., TX
