ABERNATHY — Since making the jump to Class 3A prior to the 2010-2011 season, the Shallowater boys basketball team has not made the postseason, though it has come close.
Now, as the Mustangs prepare to move back down to Class 2A with the next realignment in February, they could be leaving 3A with a bang.
Shallowater is off to an impressive 7-1 start through the first few weeks of the 2013-14 season, which includes a 73-64 victory over an Idalou team that has made four straight state tournament appearances.
