[TrojanMom88]

Congrats to the 2009 5a d1 state champions!!!

[TXBALLER]

HOW BOUT DEM TROJANS!!!!!!!!!!! 3 Time Champs!!!!!!!!!

[SgtRey]

Congrads Trojans...
We'll see you next year....:notworthy

[Dawg Fan]

One of the better State games I have ever watched. Exciting and well played by both teams. Congrats to Trinity:cool:

[BlackAttack]

Congrats to Trinity. You'd probably have to go all the way back to the Judson-Midland state game to see a team get outcoached in the 4th quarter as badly as Westlake did. Steve Lineweaver is one coaching dude.

[semi68]

Congratulations , Coach Lineweaver, staff, and players! I was thoroughly excited and rooting for 5-5A's district champ. A fine season and very deserved win!:notworthy

[Trojan Fan]

way to go trojans....

Oh wow...you just couldn't ask for a better game than what we had. My heart was about to go out on me.

Way to go Trojans and coaching staff and thanks to btrain, farmerfan, bigfoot and family and all the ET fans that make the season so much fun to be part of. Thanks to TrojanMom88 for starting this thread!!

It was a blast this year. Let's hope for ET-PlanoSucks round 4 next year:D

I know they played in the '93 Semis but I still say next year will be round 4 if the ymeet up. Please for the love of Pete let that happen :)

Haka and Lineweaver will always have this chemistry, imo. :notworthy:notworthy:notworthy
Big conrats to the community, the fans, the kids and the program. Outstanding season!

[farmerfan]

You know we will be singing to some body!!!

Yes we will. It's the one time I am allowed to act up at Trinity games :D

[LR46]

I'm fairly new to the Trinity Trojan commmunity and football team directly since my sophomore grandson just started there. As an aspiring linebacker, I hope the coaches turn him into all he can be and allows me to become a totally immersed Trojan "parent".

Since I moved to Euless 3 years ago, I have adopted the Trojans as my team even without a youngster there. I spent 21 years in Plano and saw some of their best teams, thrilling play off games (state champs back to back)with my children.

I love youth sports and am pleased to be in a city and associated with a school that not only shows fine young athletes and a coaching staff that is one of the best in the U.S. but a school that is very special too. :notworthy

NOTHING is better than Texas HS football.

CONGRATS TO the 2009 Trojans, the coaches, the kids and the parents. I'm right there with all of you 150% and will be for a long time.

Can't wait until next year but I will manage somehow. :D

[dragonsdaddy]

what a great effort by both teams. westlake was almost more than et could handle. great game plan and execution of same. i really didn't think et could make up that much deficit that quickly. outstanding game and a deserved champion that showed the rest of the state that might be doubting the trojans exactly what lineweaver and staff have created. get ready for the front end loader to take all those sandbags away today. next year's #1 or #1a in every preseason ranking. haka.

[chapfootball123]

Dang, it's upsetting to lose that way. Congrats Trojans.

[Mr. Rod]

This was a great game. Had me on the edge of my seat. Great game by both teams. And congratulations to the Trojans one more time, I was really impressed with your second half defense.

[KT2000]

Great game between two championship caliber teams. Brandon Carter and Bobby Brown are complete STUDS. The Carter game winner happened right in front of me.

I couldn't comprehend some of those holes Trinity opened up in the second half. The words "Mack" and "Truck" come to mind.

[NHB06]

Congrats to the Trojans!! Well done. :notworthy
Can't wait to meet again next year.

[mvinez]

Trinity players...great season and the most beautiful of endings. Trinity coaches and staff...wonderful play calling and even better motivational efforts. This team should inspire all of us to apply this type of purposeful commitment to our daily lives.

[TexasRR]

Congratulations Coach Lineweaver and all the Trojans! What an amazing game to watch. Thanks for representing DFW like the true champions you are!!!

[elkpower]

Congrats Trinity on your win.2009 State Champs.Amazing game from both teams.Congrats to Westlake on your fine season and never say quit style of football-(both teams).Have a Merry Christmas.

[War Eagle]

Congrats to Trinity!!!!

The team is great, the coaching staff is excellent, and the fans awesome!:notworthy:notworthy:notworthy

Abilene and Trinity ties run deep and I will always be a fan of the Beast from the East, unless of course we meet on the battle field.

[E-Vol-ution]

Congratulations to my absolutely favorite non-homer inspired team!:notworthy
(Also the most humble by a long shot)

[Trinity Trojan Fan For Li]

Congratulations to my beloved Trinity Trojans, Coach Lineweaver, and all the terrific coaches.

I wasn't at the game but I was there in spirit and watched it on TV. If vibes can be transmitted through the TV to the game, me and my group did it for sure.

Now we have to wait until August to get our fix of Trinity Trojan Football.

The Abilene fans were great last night. After teh Trinity game they were beyond congratulatory towards Trinity and constantly high fiving and cheering them as they left the Dome. The interaction our group had with the fans outside of the stadium was great and we had a good tim with your band as they were getting off the buses heading into the Alamodome.
Was happy to see your community get a title after the 53 year wait. Great fans, great program and great city you all have there in Taylor Co:notworthy

It might take that long for my heart to recover after the game....I think i skipped a few hundred beats on Saturday...

[slcdragonfan]

Congrats, TRINITY! What a game! You know I love ya' Baby!

Westlake fans, your team impressed me. I have to say, you performed way beyond what I had expected. :o Excellent coaching (the 2point call was right on the money), excellent QB play, reminded me of some other QB we saw this year (cough **Matt Brown** cough) with his legs and arm and poise.
Congrats on your season, you were ohhhh so close this year!

[Trojan4653]

At the risk of sounding hokey....in the movie "Contact" the heroine, at seeing the wonders of space travel says " they should have sent a poet!" So that she could adequately describe her amazement at the sights she was witnessing.

TrojanMom28 and I were trying to quantify how much satisfaction a "football team" has bestowed on us and how lucky we were to fall into a home that sent our kids to Trinity. What a wonderful and simple twist of fate. Of course there is nothing like winning and winning big, but would it be just as rewarding to come together with people previously unknown to us and support our kids giving their all to make us proud. Much like the 3rd grade play with our child playing "Indian #3". I think so.

As we drove home from the game, we found ourselves laughing and cringing as though we were watching the game with 40 seconds in regulation and trying to invoke our WILL on the outcome. Not for all the tea in China, nor the loss to SLC in 06, Allen in 08, CHill and Allen in 09 because in even our losses, we receive these memories from kids playing their hearts out and men trying to offer them the wisdom of life thru a game.


Thank you Trinity Football and Staff for allowing us to aid in your support. The memories you spin from your selfless hard work and dedication, will be the times of our lives that we can reflect on in the best, or the worst of times. It is assured they will bring back the moments we ALL shared and like another sappy movie line quoted......"the memories will wash over them so thick they will have to swat them away like flies. "


I REALLY dont have the words......Thanks Trinity :notworthy

[TrojanHorse03]

My favorite media story all year was this one http://www.the33tv.com/videobeta/watch/?watch=7798c25a-d8a7-4ee9-afed-9d4990620561 . Just brings home what was on display all day yesterday, we as fans are completely fortunate and blessed to have the players, coaches, inspiritation, entertainment, and the highly unique program identity of the Trinity football program. The championships are bonus to these rewards, though a great one I might add :notworthy .

[ALLENFANDINGO5]

I really like what Lineweaver said in the post game interview. When he said he just tagged along with the players who had just won the championship and how they redefined the "can do" attitude. Congrats, and hope we play again soon.

We are all so lucky to have our children and grandchildren at Trinity. I'm sure we are not the only awesome football program that cares as much about the spirtual side or life, life in general and other people . . . but I know we are one!!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a Good Night!! :)

Mine too...now! It was the one about Willie baking cookies for the HAWGS before seeing this...

We are sooooooo blessed to have a program that encourages this opportunity and to have FBCE willing to provide it and the food...

Thanks for posting I hadn't seen it...

[Boss Hawgette]

Dang, it's upsetting to lose that way. Congrats Trojans.

Thank you so much...Westlake was the real deal for sure. That QB is insanely quick and has some moves. #34 was a beast too. The defense was amazing as well. Thanks for a dance that goes down in the history books.

[MALAMEDICINA]

so SWEET, cant get over it yet!!!

to all my Euless people, should they put Trinitys name and championship years on the city water tower by hwy 10?? I know they got the name on the one by Ash and Main. I think they should since its a more visible one, so people who dont really know exactly what Euless's boundaries are, start getting familiar. Go Trojans!!!:)

[T's Up]

T's Up Baby them boys from Euless did there thing again. All the hard work the coaches, players, parents and community put in paid off. Enjoy this and get back to work soon because there is no way that Trinity has any chance of success next year........LOL and start working on that passing game TOO because the run is out dated and cant win in this day and age.........LOL

And big props to Austin Westlake they came out and supported there team (in mostly Benz and Range Rovers) to the fullest and played there butts off, ive never given an opposing team a round of appaluse like that at the end of the game. Thats what you call leaving it out of the field. RESPECT

[feelthepayne]

Dang, it's upsetting to lose that way. Congrats Trojans.
I have the so-called TD on dvr.....It was not a catch.....We need instant replay in the playoffs......It could have happened to either team. That is just the way the ball bounces.:p

Couldn't have said any of that better myself. Linweaver has planted hismelf as one of the best of all time, he was already up there in my book but this season just confirms that to the rest of the state if there were any doubters left. ET is a premier program that has earned everything they have won, just like Katy and Carroll before them. The next few years are going to see some very good teams come off of Industrial as well, going to be fuin to watch them.

You wouldn't have won those three titles without the Bedford boys. I don't think Lineweaver likes / allows boundries.

Good Job - you've captured a lot of my sentiments. I've met a lot of good people, had a lot of memorable experiences and had a stadium full of fun because of the team. ( I've also grown up a little )

[AEfan]

Congrats to the 2009 5a d1 state champions!!!
Congrats to the 2009 5A D1 State Texas Champions - well done boys!

[trojanbacker]

Well said. It was a great, very surprising year. These kids gave a lot of old fans like me some real thrills this year.

[Maroondog]

My belated congrats to the Trojan Nation (computer problems have had me out of commission).

A great game and another notch on your gun. Special thanks for carrying the DFW banner and getting it done.

As I stated in another thread, never underestimate a Lineweaver coached team. :notworthy:D

[FatBoy of Troy]

Congrats to the Trojans!! Well done. :notworthy
Can't wait to meet again next year.

I can wait...those little purple wearin snots are bad on my old heart!!:eek:

I'm sure we'll see Plano next year deep in the playoffs. They're like a penecillin resistant disease...they just won't go away and keep coming back!!!:notworthy

[eagledad60]

I would like to give a BIG congrats to Trinity for their win. Nothing but respect for you guys. Talked to a bunch of fans as we were going into the Astrodome for our game and everyone we met wished us well with our game. You have a great fan base with MUCHO class.:notworthy

We ALL KNOW those Bedford boys are invaluable to the success of the program. That's another reason that I hate it when they're called ET. (I prefer THS, myself.)

Besides, that other school that has some Bedford kids might object to the Bedford water towers having something about the THS football team on them. They'd start wanting them painted with band stuff. :mad:

And don't forget, you'd have to put up something about the girls lacrosse team's championships, etc., just to be politically correct. :)

IT"S ALL ABOUT HS FOOTBALL no other activity matters :)

[MALAMEDICINA]

yeah all about Football!!!! no just kidding, but you are right if they put something on Euless water towers, than Bedford should get something on theirs too, no doubt. But like Haltom's they only have football stuff I believe, and no one is complaining, not that I know
