Dave Campbell’s Texas Football recently released its UIL realignment projections. The University Interscholastic League’s biennial realignment will be revealed Feb. 3, 2022, and classification cutoff numbers will be released later in December.

According to DCTF predictions, the Brownwood Lions will be moving to Region I in Class 4A Division I and be located in District 4 – but many of their current district foes will remain.

District 4-4A Division I, based on DCTF’s forecast, will consist of Brownwood, Alvarado, China Spring, Stephenville, San Angelo Lake View, and Waco La Vega.

Stephenville will compete in the Class 4A Division I state semifinals this weekend against Wichita Falls Hirschi, while China Spring is battling Cuero in the Class 4A Division II state semifinals. La Vega was a Top 10 program in Class 4A Division I for most of the season.

The projected cutoff numbers for Class 4A Division I are between 900-1,299 students, and China Spring turned in 904 as it looks to be moving up. The rest of the schools competed in Class 4A Division I the past two seasons.

The rest of Region I – according to DCTF – will consist of District 1 members Andrews, Big Spring, El Paso Austin, El Paso Bowie, El Paso Irvin, El Paso Riverside, and San Elizario; District 2 members Canyon, Canyon Randall, Dumas, Hereford, Lubbock Estacado, and Pampa; and District 3 members Decatur, Lake Worth, Mineral Wells, River Oaks Castleberry; Springtown; and Wichita Falls.

In other classifications, Early is expected to remain in 3-3A Division I but the league would be much tougher if projections hold with Brock and Jim Ned in the same district, as well as Breckenridge, Clyde and Peaster.

Class 3A Division I schools are anticipated to have enrollments between 355 and 534 students.

In Class 3A Division II, Bangs is anticipated to be in a league much similar to the last two years. District 2 is expected to feature Bangs, Ballinger, Brady, Grape Creek, San Angelo TLCA and Wall.

The cutoff numbers for Class 3A Division II are expected to be between 240-354 students.

In Class 2A Division I, Coleman, Goldthwaite and San Saba are expected to be paired together again in the seven-team District 5 – located in Region II – along with Mason, Cisco, Harper, and Winters, creating one of the toughest leagues in the state.

Enrollments figures for Class 2A Division I are forecast to be between 163-239 students.

Cross Plains, in Class 2A Division II, is anticipated to remain in the same district with Albany, Hico, Meridian and Santo. Instead of District 8, the league would be District 6, according to DCTF projections.

Projected cutoffs numbers are 105-162 for Class 2A Division II.
