“Friendswood has great

ders will have a similar

district play where rivalries
will be renewed.

“We picked up Hous-
ton Heights, a Class 6A
school,” Westerberg said.
“They play pretty good
football and used to scrim-
mage Crosby. When you
are looking for a game at
realignment, it is not good.
“It is not a bad district.
It is pretty good. Some of
the same teams and we are
picking up Texas City. We
have not played them since
I have been here. And we
have played Kingwood
Park the last several years.
We will see where it goes.”
Anahuac will compete in
District 10-3A-DI against
some familiar foes in Buna,
Tarkington, Hardin, Kir-
byville, East Chambers and
Woodville.
In the non-football dis-
tricts, Baytown remained
separated from its Class 5A
neighbors. The three Goose
Creek schools will compete
in District 22-5A against
Friendswood, Galveston

elsewhere, with a soften-
ing global manufacturing
sector and tariffs reducing
growth in demand for the
kind of polyurethane foam
insulation the project will
produce.
“It’s all part of the due
diligence, but I wouldn’t
think it’s going to have
a significant effect at all,
given that they’ve charac-
terized it as a ‘pause,’” he
said.
“In general, the chemi-
cal industry has continued
to expand in 2019 despite
the trade policies or a glob-
al manufacturing slow-
down,” Simon observed.
“There’s been softening
growth around the globe.”
“I think that the Coves-
tro project is in good stand-

MIAMI — It took the Chiefs five full de-
cades to bring the Lombardi Trophy back
to Kansas City.
They don’t intend to wait that long again.
With confetti still swirling and their
thrilling Super Bowl triumph over the San
Francisco 49ers mere minutes old, most
of the Chiefs were already talking about
next season. They got a taste of reaching
the AFC title game last season and it drove
them to make it back this season, and now
that they’ve had a taste of winning the
championship, the organization’s mindset
is quite simple: Why stop at just one?
“Next year we’re coming back,” Chiefs
defensive tackle Claris Jones said. “We’re
coming back for a repeat.”
