UIL Legislative Council

The UIL approved the addition of one state track meet competitor in each division. Must mean they're now running on a 9-lane track, right?

The University of Texas needs to break ground on that twenty-four lane pool immediately.

Rumor is, the Legislative Council also decided to change the entry deadline for district swimming from the current ten days out to five days out. No word on when that rule will go into effect.

What about water polo, you ask?

What are you, some kind of trouble-maker?

Okay, here's the scoop. They were on the agenda to present their annual proposal to add polo as a UIL sport, but the presentation wasn't made.

On a related note, bowling will not be added as a UIL sport. Read more here.

You want more polo news? Look up at the title of the blog, smart-alec.

Okay, one more. Read about the big high school polo split here.

There! Are y'all happy now?

    (With apologies to Hanker)

    Coaches of the sport claim that they care
    They just keep on screaming about seasons
    But many of them try reaching for the stairs
    To the throne and rule over the others

    If they could better get along
    Together they'd be so strong

    Though leaders of the sport swear that they care
    Like puppeteers they excel at pullin' strings
    But any simple man goes sayin' "You coaches beware!
    He who lives by the sword dies agonizing"

    If they could better get along
    Together they'd be so strong

    All of them have to really care
    Though they're different they all live for the same thing
    Don't you dare raise your fists in the air
    Instead of whining, join your voices and sing!

    If they could better get along
    Together they'd be so strong
    Polo coaches, you just got to hold on
    United you can't go wrong

    United you stand
    Divided you fall

    CRASH.
