Staff Report UIL The Daily Register Thu Jul 05, 2012, 09:07 AM CDT

Lindsay — With another year of academic and athletic success the Lindsay Knights

found themselves again on top of the UIL’s Class A race for the Lone

Star Cup. It is Lindsay’s sixth Lone Star Cup overall which is the

most wins by any school in Class A, and they are only three behind

overall leader Highland Park.

The Knights and Lady Knights used state runner-up finishes in

academics and girls track and field to help vault them to a 66 point

total, taking the tiebreaker over Shiner. Lindsay also used lengthy

playoff runs in volleyball, softball, football and girl’s basketball

to help capture the win.

Muenster was the only other area school to finish in the top ten,

placing tenth in the Class A standings with 40 overall points.

After state championship victories in academics and boys basketball,

along with a state runner-up finish in football and as the reigning 3A

marching band state champs the Argyle Eagles claimed their third Lone

Star Cup. Argyle joined Southlake Carroll as the only other school to

win the honor in multiple classifications. The Eagles also were

champions in 2006 in 2A and 2009 in 3A.

Southlake Carroll captured their third cup taking Class 5A while Lake

Travis High School won their first ever Lone Star Cup capturing Class

4A. White Oak High School, also a first time winner, picked up the win

in Class 2A.

The UIL Lone Star Cup recognizes the five high schools, one in each

classification, based on their overall achievement in a variety of

sanctioned athletic and academic championships. All UIL member high

schools in good standing are included for contention for the UIL Lone

Star Cup.

The UIL Lone Star Cup program began during the 1997-1998 season.
