D3-3A Notebook

PICTURED: Fulton team

District 3-3A grows by one school (Austin-East) with the new classifications in 2025-2026. Their inclusion puts a wrinkle in that Fulton was often by far the most athletic and speedy team in the district. Austin-East, the Roadrunners in name and game, will match them in at least this facet of the game. Seymour is enjoying a tremendous season through early December.
