You are correct. Adams threw the first punch in the course of heated action on the floor, got a flagrant foul, and a 1 game suspension. All punishments seem very appropriate.

The WOS argument actually kind of makes you look worse. They dominated far more than you guys are. Won back to back state titles and have had zero problems like this. You guys keep saying how great you are but are wearing no rings.

I've seen no one from LCM on here defending any actions at all by anyone from their community. Only apologies and regrets. Silsbee on the other hand is using everything they can to place blame else where. Like the guy posted earlier, if you have problems with everyone you play then you might want to look in the mirror. And no, it isn't because you are so awesome that everyone looses their mind when they play you. This area has had many basketball teams go to the state tournament. None were on probation for fighting (like Silsbee). None had players suspended for fighting (Silsbee will). None had confrontations with almost every opponent they play (like Silsbee does). I too have seen the video. Let me be the first to defend the LCM kids. Get slapped in the face (which drew a technical foul at the time, no one is mentioning that, for those of you wondering who started it, might be the person who drew the first technical foul), then give a half slap in return that missed by 3 feet. Only to have the guy then throw a haymaker your way. Luckily a team mate stopped him from landing it. IMO I never saw an LCM player throw a "punch". #0 simple went in high to stop the kid from decking his team mate (did catch him in the face though). Then the Silsbee player threw another haymaker. I won't even touch on what #3 from Silsbee did. Except to say he should probably be facing criminal charges, and if he suits up again for Silsbee the school should be embarrassed.

Congrats to the Jasper coaches and the Jasper Bulldog players from the Hawks. I went to this game last night and left with one thing that I could not get off my mind. Carthage had the leadoff batter on several times. I cannot understand why they did not bunt. (accept for couple attempts with number 2 that got ONE down) They just stood in there and tried to hit a somewhat dominant pitcher. I know Coach Kirkland's style from his days over here and felt that had he been in the other dugout, Carthage possibly wins the game which shows the respect we have for him over here.

No one ever answered the question regarding "who pitched for HJ?"

that is averaging 12 pitches an inning. I saw this game. my bet is 113 is incorrect number. on the low end hs pitchers throw 15 pitches an inning. (usually more) and he pitched to three batters in the 10th

This post was interesting to me. Does it not say at the start of his post to stop pointing the finger? and then in the middle of post point the finger at the parents? and finish the post with pointing the finger at the high school coach?

Anybody know how many innings and pitches the starters for each team threw?

I just looked at usssa bracket for this weekend and gladiators are in 12u and 9u brackets. so must not be true

that's 15 wins and 17 losses your records cannot be correct

two exciting games played in jasper earlier. between them were, one coach ejected, one coach confined to the dugout, and two parents being ejected.

Just the fact the score was 30-1 is enough said.   The statement above made by 1987 exposes the problem if that guy is on that coaching staff.   "only stole second and third"    Stealing any bases at all after up over 10 runs is uncalled for.   There are ways to keep from scoring 30 and teach your kids a good lesson on the day.   I have seen the scores posted by that team and I am embarrassed for them.   Young Guns lesson of the week:  Kick a man when he is down 

Did they have to forfeit ALL their games?  So 0-???  That is not good.

Never doubt Admin.  8) 8)

It was stated in the "If you were an umpire what would your call be on this play"? The ball was caught and dislodged by contact. That information, along with the photo, was given from the get go.
