Who wins District 1-5A in 2022

Belen Eagles (7-4 overall): There will be a new HC for the Eagles in 2022. They will feature duo in Avila (2024) and Romero (2023)

Highland Hornets (3-8 overall): The Hornets were young and inexperienced last season. Lopez (2023), Rodriguez (2024), and Mumba (2025) are three must-see RBs.

Miyamura Patriots (2-7 overall): Had a season to forget in 2021 with off the field issues. New HC, a 6-game losing streak, and hope is on the shoulders of RB Chavez (2023)

Piedra Vista Panthers (6-5 overall): Three headed monster returns in Sanchez (2023/RB), Ramsted (2023/RB) and Howell (2023/QB).

How do you think Doug Cavanaugh would fare there?

The question I want to ask, is coaching a dying profession? Obviously there is a teacher shortage in our state but an issue just as big is the lack of people going into coaching. I'm talking about people that are coming out of college that are planning on teaching and coaching.
I know we are a little short staffed and I would presume there are other schools in the state with a similar issue. What is alarming is that I have a buddy who runs a pretty good program in the San Angelo area and even he is short 5 coaching positions.
Maybe the pay increase will help get people back into the profession. Then again if people are making pretty good money teaching they may not want or need the extra stipend that comes with coaching especially with everything that is required of coaches.
Just wanted to get other people's thoughts on this. Maybe I'm overreacting a bit.
