Changes in practice for HS athlete's in Texas

[Longhornfrenzy]

Times sure have changed since I played HS football.
Our hydration station was a 10-ft piece of 1 in PVC pipe with a water hose connected at the end, and a 1 gal jar of salt tablets.  Our rapid cooling zone was praying for cloud cover and rain..lol. No water break until the coaches got thirsty.   No such thing as too hot back in the day.

Very curious to see how long this lasts. Some schools in parts of the state like SETX and Houston are going to get screwed by humidity more than anyone else. And to make it worse, there's currently only two HS indoor facilities in the Houston area. One is in Barbers Hill, it's super old, and it isn't a full field 100-yard field with end zones. The other is a full field at CE King IIRC, but there's no A/C and they just open up the garage doors. North Shore is currently building one that I believe will also be shared with Galena Park HS, but man, that's still only 3 indoor facilities for 4 HS teams. And one of those (Barbers Hill) really isn't even in the Houston area
