Has some small chapter from north of Dallas eaten away part of the Dallas or Fort Worth chapters' areas?

Each school or district chooses which chapter they want to use during the season. Playoffs are awarded to chapters by the uil based on test scores and other factors. Most of the time you are sent to a region your chapter normally does not work (but sometimes if both coaches ask for a certain chapter they might get it). The better raked your chapter the more games you get. Crews from every chapter are assigned to the state tournament for at least one game.
The crew in this game were from the Temple chapter (for the non-Texans that's near Waco about 75 miles north of Austin & 150 miles south of DFW). This is not a small town but it is also not a large metro area. There are very few of our larger schools in this area but plenty of schools the size of this game so experience was not an issue.
