With San Marcos being realigned to a six-team division in District 27-6A for 2022-24, the Rattlers will take on more non-district opponents than they have in recent history. That slate begins with the 2022 season opener against Hutto.
The Hippos went 5-6 overall last year, earning fourth place in District 25-6A with a 4-3 record and securing a playoff spot before falling to eventual state champion Austin Westlake in the first round.
Hutto’s undergone some changes in the offseason. Former head coach Brad LaPlante moved into a new role as the school’s full-time athletic director. LaPlante hired Will Compton as his replacement, who most recently served as the offensive coordinator at Buda Johnson.
