Texas High School Football Playoffs,Texas High School Football:The scene here at Leo Buckley Stadium late Friday night was reminiscent of most high school football venues across the country, as the Shoemaker Grey Wolves dealt with the reality their season was over.

Tears were shed, hugs were exchanged between players, coaches and players, coaches and coaches. Then the coaches thanked the seniors for great effort.

But this was no ordinary season-finale ritual for the Grey Wolves. Just over 24 hours earlier, many of them weren’t sure if their parents or loved ones were injured — or worse, killed — in the deadly shooting rampage at Fort Hood, the nation’s largest military base.

Shoemaker High School, which is just a stone’s throw away from Fort Hood, is heavily populated with kids whose families either live on base or are serving in the military. With wars going on in Iraq and Afghanistan, these young people have become accustomed to dealing with death.

But that didn’t make news of Thursday’s deadly rampage any easier for many of them to take. Twelve soldiers and one civilian were killed, and 30 others were wounded. If there was any solace, it was that none of the Grey Wolves’ parents or immediate family members were affected by the shooting.more info http://backporch.fanhouse.com/2009/11/07/high-school-football-team-near-fort-hood-copes-with-tragedy/
