LT coasted past San Marcos 62-13 in a game that saw the Cavs’ starters on offense only run 22 plays before calling it a night in the third quarter. Those 22 plays were productive as QB Chaston Ditta hit 9 of 14 passes for 190 yards and 3 TDs, two of which were to WR Patrick Colby, who finished with 7 catches for 167 yards. Lake Travis will be looking to go 5-0 next week when the Cavs tackle unbeaten Bowie at Burger.

∙ Speaking of, Bowie will be looking to stay untarnished as the Dawgs host Converse Judson tonight.

∙ Pflugerville won for the fourth week in a row, slamming Navarro 73-0 in the District 11-5A DII opener last night. The Panthers will look for their fifth win next Friday taking on the Wildcats at Elgin.

Johnson closes out non-district play tonight taking on former 6A district rival Dripping Springs. The Jaguars host San Marcos opening District 29-6A play next Friday.

∙ After starting last year 0-3, Round Rock has flipped the script starting 3-0 this fall. The Dragons look to stay on top of the District 25-6A standings tonight as they face McNeil.

Georgetown is idle tonight and the Eagles will kick off District 8-5A DI play next Friday facing Leander at Bible Stadium.

LBJ remains unbeaten after downing previously unbeaten Wimberley last week, but the Jaguars have a big task in front of them tonight as they take on private school powerhouse Dallas Parish Episcopal.

∙ Also unbeaten in 4A, Lampasas faces familiar foe Wimberley tonight.

Jarrell is the last of the area Class 4A unbeatens. The Cougars travel to face the Yellowjackets in Llano this evening.

The altercation was caught on camera.

What we know:

34-year-old Ian Kevin Brinkmeyer has been charged with criminal mischief, a Class B misdemeanor, in connection with the Dec. 5 incident.

The affidavit says Brinkmeyer “engaged in a road rage” with the other man while traveling north on Capital of Texas Highway. Brinkmeyer drove around the other man, changed lanes in front of him and cut him off before stopping his car.

Brinkmeyer then allegedly got out of his vehicle holding a “steel knife sharpening rod”, walked over to the other man’s car and struck the driver’s side door window with the rod, shattering the entire window.

The affidavit says Brinkmeyer then quickly walked back to his car and drove off.

The entire incident was caught on video by other drivers and posted on social media.

The affidavit says that the repairs to the shattered window cost about $480, making this a case of criminal mischief with a value between $100 and $750.

What’s next:

A warrant has been issued for Brinkmeyer’s arrest. As of 12 p.m. Dec. 11, he is not in custody.

Day Trips: Gifts From All Over Texas • The Austin Chronicle


Holiday gift giving means it’s time for a road trip.

Maceo’s Spice & Import Company (maceospice.com) in Galveston is the perfect destination for the chefs and eaters on your list. Not only is the island city decorated for the holidays, but the 81-year-old specialty shop has an expansive selection of spices and hard-to-find imported foods. The house-made tomato gravy and pesto sauce are highly recommended. While you’re there, treat yourself to a muffaletta sandwich and a bowl of gumbo.  

If someone on your holiday gift list is a New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival fan, head to Santo at the intersection of I-20 and U.S. 281. Kennedy’s Sausage Hometown Market (kennedyssausagehtm.com) makes the original Crawfish Monica Sauce (minus the crawfish) from Jazz Fest. The market sells other frozen foods that can be found nowhere else except maybe their other store in Stephenville. 

At Santo you’re 16 miles south of Mineral Wells, so drive to the Crazy Water Company for a case of Texas’ original mineral water.

If you can’t make a road trip during the hectic days leading up to the holiday, then shop online. One of the pleasures of traveling Texas is finding the friendly voice of National Public Radio. Small radio stations were hit hard after the elimination of federal funding for public media. For instance, Marfa Public Radio lost a third of its funding. Consider making a gift to one of the 44 public stations in Texas in someone’s name. Or purchase a very cool T-shirt from Marfa Public Radio (marfapublicradio.org) as a way of making a donation.

Want a gift with staying power? Give a personalized brick to support the renovation of the historic Bolivar Point Lighthouse (bolivarpointlighthouse.org). The red brick with their name on it will be used as a paving stone at the lighthouse across the channel from Galveston.

Purchasing a customized brick for the 1872 Bolivar Point Lighthouse not only supports the renovation, but is the gift that keeps giving for years to come Credit: Gerald McLeod

Feliz Navidad, y’all.
