Without googling, what high school in La. do you think was the highest ranked in La.? The criteria was total program wins and state titles. Hint...they checked in at #14...North La. and it's NOT Neville or WM.
Valdosta H.S. was #1

Haynesville, but the article wasn't about all schools. I believe it was regarding smaller high schools

First school that popped in my head when it said North Louisiana. Either that or Evangel.

No evangel either

It was Haynesville but included all schools big and small. Valdosta is huge. Neville was 30, I believe.

West Monroe didnt win their first state title until 1993 and from 1953 to 1990 only had about 5 playoff appearances.

I think it was 1995, Bobby Ray Tell had a game where he had 4 rushes for something like 180 yards and three touchdowns. He was a man amongst boys out there. Had a good career at tech

Homer vs Haynesville was a war back in the day, maybe still is. Homer looks down its collective nose at the oilfield trash in Haynesville and Haynesville never forgets it.

Belaire and Tara would fighting for the bottom
