CEDAR CREEK LAKE–For area high school athletes, football and volleyball
season opens early Monday morning.
Band members at Mabank, Kemp and Eustace high schools have been working
on their weekly halftime shows for a week.
Football players at both Kemp and Eustace will be opening practice under
new head coaches.
Eustace players will get the earliest start on two-a-days, as new head
coach Doug Wendel will open practice at 7 a.m. and continue through 8:40
before taking a break.
Practice will continue at 10:15 a.m. and wrap up at noon, Wendel said.
At Kemp, head coach Greg Anderson and a new coaching staff will welcome
Yellowjacket hopefuls at 7:30 a.m.
Kemp players will take a break between 9:45 and 10:45, and will wrap up
practices around 12:30 p.m., Anderson said.
At Mabank, fourth-year head coach Jimmy Cantrell will welcome back
potential Panthers at 7 a.m.
Morning practices will go through 9:30, and Mabank players will return
for an afternoon session from 4-6 p.m., braving the possibility of
triple-digit temperatures in a summer without any 100-degree days so
far.
Volleyball practices open at 8 a.m. Monday for both Eustace and Kemp
players.
At Kemp, there’s a new head coach in Peggy Swierc, who will be assisted
by Sally Ross.
Lady Yellowjacket hopefuls will practice through noon, and return for an
afternoon session between 3-5 p.m.
At Eustace, veteran Lady Bulldog coach Chuck Powers returns for his 31st
season 18 wins shy of 600 victories.
Powers will conduct a single practice between 8 a.m. and noon.
Eustace will host four teams for scrimmages starting at 4 p.m. Friday,
Aug. 10. Eight teams are scheduled to visit for scrimmaging Saturday,
Aug. 11, starting at 10 a.m.
At Mabank, head coach Stacy Shelton will be looking for a return to the
playoffs, as she welcomes back most of last year’s unbeaten district
champion squad.

– with scrimmages scheduled at Carrollton Ranchview Friday and at Wills
