A lot of these scores just highlight the watered down impact of two divisions. Liberty Hill getting smoked by 30 in the state finals and Kountze winning by almost 40 is insane. Hey but more people got a trophy and get to claim they went to "state"

BH scored 3 points in the 3rd qtr on 3 free throws and in the 4th didnt score their first fg until 2 min left in the game. Hit two 3s in a row within 6 seconds in the last 20 seconds for a total of 11 points in the second half. Liberty Hill didnt look great themselves. Hard to believe this was a state semifinal matchup.

My point was he was quick to pat himself on the back leaving out the fact he skipped a round and faced less than stellar competition. I get you can only play who is on the schedule, my beef is with UIL. You moved up some of the best 5A teams and then then you split the leftovers into two. But even last year was weak too, hasn't been a really good region 3 5A team in a few years. The days of the really good Hardin Jefferson and Beaumont United's state team are long gone.

So the 4th place team out of their district with 15-11 and 7-5 district record in Rudder is who BH has to play to win regionals? Unreal how thin the split divisions have made 5A. SMH

That place is first class, not sure how they pulled the funds to build it but its a better arena than Lee College. I am shocked you have not been there. LaPorte also fully funds and staffs LPsportsnet which streams all home games to YouTube and logs them. It looks like a Espn broadcast, it is very well done. Nobody can match the facilities and the streaming capability that LaPorte has, it is very well done.

Of course they do, it makes it a whole lot easier. BH coach already crowing about going to regional semifinals 3 years in a row but left out the fact he got to skip an entire round this year and faced much weaker competition.

I think it was just a few years ago BH vs LP was a first round playoff matchup now both in regional finals because they are two of the only decent programs in 5A region 3 that got split by D1 and D2. The Beaumont United team from that same year would run every team in this years region out of the gym by 30 plus.

Keep forgetting about D1 vs D2. What a joke, totally waters down the playoffs...in 5A especially where there is only a few decent teams in the entire region combined. Skipping a round to boot to get to semifinals. Sad

How did they settle 1st and 2nd in district? Was it a coin flip?

PNG 0-11 in district?

Closer and a weaker district it looks like. Pasadena might have actually has the best record out of anyone last year in this new district?

Shoot I remember back in the mid 90s kids that couldn't make it at 5A Baytown Sterling would transfer to BH to be able to play. One ended up being all-state in 3A I think in football and baseball but couldnt crack the lineup at Sterling. My have things changed. This was during the 5A district that had Lee, North Shore, Sterling, Central, West Brook, PAJ, PNG.

[Hidden Content] Had not seen the updated numbers. Co-MVP was 9 which is interesting.

I thought she should have gotten offensive POY and newcomer as a floor.
