ELYSIAN FIELDS Theres no place like home, and Marshalls Scott Ford is coming back to East Texas. The former Maverick football player from 1986-88 who played collegiately at Sam Houston and UNT and spent the last season as Hidalgos athletic director/head football coach, resigned on Friday to move closer to home and take the same position at Elysian Fields vacated earlier by former boss Eric King. The Yellowjackets went 11-4 and are coming off a season in which they advanced to the Class 2A Division II state semifinals before losing to eventual champion East Bernard. Kings contract wasnt renewed after 11 months of turmoil and uncertainty, but Ford hopes to continue the programs rise. Theyre definitely committed to winning, and Im concerned about continuing to do so and doing it in a classy way and communicating in the right manner, Ford said. I think its going to be a really good fit. Ford comes to Elysian Fields from Class 3A Hidalgo, a town located close to the Mexican border, where he took at team which was forced to forfeit all wins from the 2011 season and went 7-4 with a district championship which wasnt decided until an overtime victory on the final day of the regular season.
