BEAUMONT, Texas — For the second straight year district rivals Silsbee and West Orange-Stark will play for a spot in the 4A-Division II State Semifinals. Last year the Tigers stunned the Mustangs in New Caney 19-9, this time two will meet in Beaumont ISD's Memorial Stadium.
Earlier this season the Mustangs came away with a 17-9 win in Silsbee's Tiger Stadium. It marked West Orange-Stark's 24th win in the series, compared to only four losses against Silsbee. While that lopsided number is hard to ignore, Tiger fans will point out that their team is (2-0) against the Mustangs in the playoffs. Silsbee also shocked West Orange-Stark in the 1998 Bi-District round, 21-20.
Awaiting the winner will be Navarro (13-0) or Wimberley (10-3). In their District 13-4A-DII meeting Navarro smashed the Texans, 42-14.
