Kountze - 62 Crockett - 50 3:39 left in the 3rd...

Congrats Buna! Way to represent 23-3A!

Kountze - 54 Crockett - 48 6:01 left in the 3rd... Let's stay out of foul trouble Lions!

Tiger Edwards with 13 pts at the half...

Yep.

Those fouls look like a redo from last year's game.. About 50 total were called. TJ and Grayland both being in foul trouble is not a good thing.. I hope we can keep them both in the game..

Kountze - 46 Crockett - 44 Halftime... A game of runs..

41-39 Kountze... 2:08 left in the 2nd quarter

Way to fight back! What's going on out there utfan?

Kountze down 20-13.. Crockett at the line...

Kountze - 13 Crockett - 17 2:50 left in the 1st

Crockett - 12 Kountze - 8 4:34 left in the 1st..

TJ starts the game with a 3 for Kountze! Hopefully that's a good omen...

Could be traffic on 45 for Crockett fans...

I know the Kountze side will be packed but I wouldn't bet on Crockett's side being packed. Their girls play a Regional Tournament game in Waco at 6pm on the same day. Their fans are going to have to choose which game to attend.

The trash talk between them is getting ugly. I just hope we don't come in with too many emotions.

Don't forget about Big Sandy or East Chambers.

A great test indeed! Also a game that worries me.... If Grayland or TJ get into foul trouble it could get scary.

I said before the season started that Region III was down this year and it looks like I'm correct. So far, two (1) seeds have been eliminated by (4) seeds. I also said that there were two teams I was worried about and they were Palestine Westwood and East Chambers. Unfortunately, Westwood lost their 6'6" standout post for the season and that basically killed all their hopes. I would not be surprised to see East Chambers win Region III, especially knowing how Coach Sutherland prepares his team. Trust me, I played for him two seasons at Kountze.

Actually they won't. They have a matchup against Crockett tomorrow. If they win that they'll face the winner of New Waverly/Hempstead. Like @MOSSHILL stated, I'm more worried about the potential matchup against East Chambers in the Regional Finals. Luckily for us, progress reports are released next Friday. If both guys are passing at that time they could return and play after 5pm. Kountze plays at 6pm if they make it that far.

What hurt against Buna the 1st time was more internal than anything. They've gotten that straightened out. It had nothing to do with basketball.
