Rudder is going to foul their entire starting team out.........

[quote name="ST413" post="766662" timestamp="1267149741"] Good point but I thought Rudder was a running team. [/quote]There's running... and then there's running. This seems to happen every year in the play-offs.  I sometimes wonder if Southeast Texas (and Yates!) are the only places that know how to press.

[quote name="tvman91" post="766659" timestamp="1267149579"] I have seen these Eagles play numerous times this year and looked at the bracket. After my research I think they can make it to Regionals and maybe sneak up on Kountze or NW. Who can tell me that either of these teams are going to be worried bout bein beat after they play each other? They will be nearly asleep and an explosive team like Woodville could take advantage of that. [/quote]Both teams are too well coached. Woodville cannot match up with either of those two teams.  Sorry.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="766658" timestamp="1267149524"] Rudder is 1/11 from 3 point land. Silsbee out rebounded Rudder 24-13 in the first half. [/quote]They shouldn't have tried to run with Silsbee.  With their legs tired, they won't hit a three the rest of the night.

[quote name="bullets13" post="766652" timestamp="1267149251"] Rudder holds for the last shot, and misses.  Silsbee leads 39-30 at the break! [/quote]Good 2nd quarter, Tigers. Now to close it out to open the third!  Game over!

Rudder is ice cold at the 3 point line!

[quote name="ST413" post="766628" timestamp="1267148643"] 25-24 Tigers [/quote]The Tigers are going to close out the half with 2nd run and then open the third with another run.  Rudder will not come back after that.

[quote name="Bucof2010" post="766609" timestamp="1267147843"] Doesn't sound like a huge amount of fouls considering both are pressing [/quote]I think they're too busy traveling to draw any fouls. Are the referees that much of a stickler or are these legitimate travels.  I think Silsbee has been called traveling 4 or 5 times already! And they started the 2nd quarter with their 6th traveling!

12 - 9 Rudder, late in 1st. Tigers had their 5th turnover.  Rudder has at least that many.

[quote name="Bucof2010" post="766596" timestamp="1267147315"] I bet Rudder coaches got a slap of reality when Silsbee started pressing them [/quote]It's the same old thing.  If you run with them, you are simply playing into their hands. Rudder will find out how good a shape they are in, but right now, they're running step for step with Silsbee.

Both teams look like they're pressing.  This ought to be fun.  There's already a number of steals. 4 - 4

[quote name="Bucof2010" post="766567" timestamp="1267146284"] Wow not a great start with the official [/quote]Why?  What happened?

Man, did you see how big those two guys are for Navasota?!?!?  Ricossa is going to have his hands FULL!!! It ought to be fun seeing how long those guys can run up and down the court with HJ!!!

[quote name="utfan06" post="765340" timestamp="1266988442"] [quote author=ST413 link=topic=66475.msg765293#msg765293 date=1266983884] Lets hope the small schools can keep southeast tx going. [/quote] Of course they will:) [/quote]Yeah.  It's a tradition!

[quote name="scooby" post="765333" timestamp="1266987725"] don't know about evadale or how it is to [i]play[/i] in EC but it's one heck of a place to watch a game! it looks like even the concession workers have a decent view through the glass, nice touch....now if they'll just get some closed circuit monitors in the bathrooms..wow... ;D, oh, and some parking...one step at a time i guess....seriously though, super nice place. [/quote]Don't worry about the parking.  I hear next year they're getting valets!  ;)

[quote name="ktzlionsfan" post="765271" timestamp="1266983007"] [quote author=LAZEEK link=topic=66171.msg765190#msg765190 date=1266980381] Great win tonight HJ.............tons of great high school players in the Lions Den tonight...........Brey, Walker, Stallworth, Lane, players from Cleveland and of course the HJ players!!!!  [b]Jacoby was once again a man amongst boys tonight!!!!![/b]  Great job now get ready for Round 4 with Navasota!!!! [/quote] Hey Lazeek, what is that supposed to mean?  ??? ??? [/quote]Don't worry.  Jarvis Benard has graduated!

As of 9:00am, there was not even an issue of moving the game to another night, according to Coach Sutherland.  It hadn't been considered.  The forecast doesn't call for snow right now.  I don't see the temps falling more than 36 degrees as of this time.

[quote name="ST413" post="764550" timestamp="1266900969"] Oh and by the way,  I wore my Tigers gear and at half time I was approached and a man introduced himself to me that many of you on here will remember.  I was a little suprised. [/quote]OK, I'll bite. It's hard to remember someone if you don't give us at least a hint.......

[quote name="HoopInsider_Cooper" post="764449" timestamp="1266893983"] [font=Courier]75-53.... up next: New Waverly, Thurs, New Caney HS, 7:30pm[/font] [/quote]Who does EC play after New Waverly?  ;)

Although they didn't make it to the state tournament, wasn't Jasper a third seed last year, when they lost in the Regional finals?

[quote name="Kelly Basketball" post="764282" timestamp="1266881222"] After playing New Waverly, and seeing Kountze play. Kountze wins by 15-18 [/quote]If you saw NW at East Chambers tournament, then you saw NW without one of their stars, who got hurt during their opening game.

[quote name="ST413" post="764355" timestamp="1266887757"] Starters stay on bench for fourth. [/quote]OK, you've given scores but you've never said WHO is winning? jk  ;)

[quote name="ST413" post="764121" timestamp="1266866571"] Yes Lane should be close to the top 5 if not in it. The Tigers will be fine next year. We will just miss those two trees inside not much height to replace them. [/quote]Shouldn't Sutherland and Gustafson of HJ be considered?

[quote name="Bucof2010" post="764114" timestamp="1266866113"] I think they (Lumberton ) were ahead of hj in the rankings most of the yr weren't they lazeek? Lmao [/quote]That's why we only played them once and Kountze twice!!! We were lucky the first time HJ beat them.... must have caught them on an off night!
