"There are no math majors in the sports department. But as near as we can figure, there have been more than 50,000 high school football players suit up in Central Texas since 1955, when former sports editor Dave Campbell and Hollis Biddle created the Tribune-Herald Super Centex team."

Super Centex teams
Since 1955 from the Waco Tribune-Herald
For more than 50 years, the Waco Tribune-Herald has named its annual Super Centex Football Team to honor the best and brightest Friday night heroes. The honors have expanded over the years to include teams in basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball. In 1987, we named our first male and female Super Centex Athletes of the Year.
On these pages at WacoTrib.com/supercentex we present our complete online archive of content since we began developing interactive features for the Web. In the future, we plan to present comprehensive information, photos and archival material on all the Super Centex honorees since 1955. We'd love to hear your suggestions, so feel free to the WacoTrib.com staff with your thoughts here.
