Kilgore players collect the 4A, Division I quarterfinals trophy after defeating Needville in New Caney. The UIL released its cutoff numbers this week, meaning many programs will have new destinations next fall; Kilgore won't be one of them, but could get some new district rivals, like Pine Tree, who will be coming from 5A, Division II down to 4A, Division I. Henderson, thought to be leaving 4A Division I for smaller 4A, looks to be staying put. (Photo by ALEX NABOR - ETBLITZ.COM)
