The numbers are smiling on the Hico Tigers in 2018, and the timing couldn’t be better. That’s because from top to bottom, District 7-2A Division I is perhaps the top 2A league in Central Texas.
Hico returns eight offensive and seven defensive starters among 13 lettermen from last year’s 7-4 playoff team. But the Tigers will have to contend with toughies from De Leon (12-1), Crawford (11-3) and Goldthwaite (4-7), along with what is expected to be a radically improved team from San Saba (3-7) that returns 18 of 22 starters.
