whsalum

Congrats lady hawks.Coaches have to be pleased with the way the club is stepping up when the starters have been getting in foul trouble.

I couldn't believe this score when I saw it.I also heard every attempt was made not to run the score up.Sometimes you just gotta hit the hard wood,go to work and make yourself better.

Do ya'll really think this club is better than last years ??? I 've saw both clubs and no doubt this club has a ton of potential but to say at the end of district they will be better than last years club I think is a stretch.

Paul had several offers to play after last season including one from Central Christian College in McPherason.Went on a visit to ETBU but just never found a program he was comfortable with.He still plays just about every day and has just completed his first semester at LIT in Beaumont where he is working on a process technology degree.

Something about that record for the Bucs just looks backwards.They probably have a new found respect for Tramain these days in Winnie :-\ :-\ :-\

This years team may be better than last years for 3 quarters???? Are you serious?They may be ahead of where last years group was as sophomores but to compare the 2 teams is not fair to either group.There is no such thing as the good Spurger club and the bad Spurger club,there is a young Spurger club and they will be inconsistant at times until they mature.The good news is they are playing quality opponents and have a good young coach they believe in and lots of young talent to go with it.That's a dangerous combination in the long run and they will develope in to very good club.Just remember though last years group was 1 game away from a date in the drum,that's pretty special for the past group of players and a pretty good ex coach.Good luck Pirates,I hope to get to see them in their tournament over the holidays.

I don't think it's just the girls sight that is down.Not near as much posting going on at the boys sites either.I think one of the problems is the overall talent level is down in the area.Lumberton lit the board up when their girls were going to the regional and state tourneys.Silsbee also is down terribly from the last several years as is WOS.Maybe the post will pick up as district play starts.

Some teams make a living with the press and simply don't know any other way to play the game.When teams don't shoot the ball particularly well they can make up for shortcomings by playing with pressure.It's extremely hard to reign in a bunch of 16,17 year old players when they are doing what they have been taught.Sometimes scores can be very misleading as in this weekends tourney games up in Colmesneil.Warrens' girls beat Latexo 76-8 and Warren doesn't play much pressure defense at all.The varsity normally doesn't carry but 7 players and wouldn't be considered one of the stronger clubs in the area so I'm not sure how you would pull off in a situation like this.You gotta feel for these clubs but the bottom line is they gotta work harder if they don't want to get embarrased.

Great win tonight for the Cards.I gotta wonder if Ashton is all the way back from his injury.He looks like he has lost his confidence.#20 for Tech was a very good shooter and Singletary looked good for the Red Raiders.Overall the atmosphere was great and I tought the crowd was closer to 8100 than 6100.

Man I hate to hear that about Roman,hope he's OK.

Where's the recap???????

Thats not exactly going out on limb there Reb ;)

The current TABC polls are about as close to being accurate as I am to being the pope : : ::)These are 2 of the better teams in SETX this year but I gotta wonder if the folks doing the rankings have even watched a game ??? ??? ???

OK Dawg,give us the low down on this one.I had Jasper picked at home but I've never seen Kountze score 51.Where have the Lions shooters disappeared to????????

Tarkington-53 Warren-35 First time I've seen Warren this year and unfortunately it wasn't pretty.Tarkington has a left handed kid that is a pretty smooth player,shoots the ball real well.Warren has a small lineup and pressured the ball real well.The just couldn't buy a bucket on the offensive end or at the free throw line.The Warriors are gonna have to stay under control and give their offensive schemes a chance to develope or they are going to be in for a pretty tough season. :(

Larry has the ladies headed in the right direction.They are getting easier to look at all the time ;)

Both programs are headed in the right direction.Orangefield protects their home floor very well.They win this one by 4. Orangefield-64 Nederland-60

I haven't had a chance to look at the bracket in this one but it should be Dville and Spurger in the finals.This would be a good matchup.I think Spurger probably has the most talented club but Dville would be hard to beat at home in the finals of their own tourney.That would be a toss up.Should be a pretty entertaining weekend for the fans.

I thought the same thing going in to the season but Anahuac looks to be much improved this year.They are playing a quality schedule to get ready for the Lions.The next week to 10 days will tell a lot about them but I think they will be able to compete with the Lions(the only club in the ditrict this year that can).Kountze will be more physical on the press but Anahuac will shoot the ball better.It will be a fun game to watch.I can see a split and another playin game at the Montagne coming in February.

Didn't Jasper just win on a neutral floor? I think your predicting with your heart and not your head in this one Dawg.Jasper WILL shoot the 3 well at home and Kountze is not shooting the long ball well at all so far this season.Jasper wins this one by 5.

I have a son who attends UT,he was the class valedictorian ;D ;D ;D, but to answer your quetion UT does have developemental classes for incoming freshmen and actually require you to take at least 1.Austin Community College is a great place to get some of your elective courses out of the way.They won't figure in on his UT GPA but the would be hours toward his degree.He will really have to buckle down on the studies to be able to play and stay eligible.

HD is still the pick in my opinion but I gotta admit HI has been better than I thought they would be.Evadale has fell off the map and WH new guys can't be anywhere near as good as advertised.I got HD and Spurger neck and neck for the top spot and SP and HI in a dogfight for the 3rd spot ;)

Good showing for the Pirates.Really comes at a good time for a young club.This gives them 4 in a row and will help their confidence.They should start to pick it up now and will be pretty dog gone good by the time their tourney is over.Them and HD should have an interesting matchup in district.Congras Pirates

This has been one of the best Basketball districts in the state over the last 8-10 years.What in the heck is going on this year.Anahuac is the only club with a winning record at 4-2.Kountze has a sub 500 record but they are playing pretty good clubs.The rest of the clubs are a combined 6/25.Looks like a tough season in this district.After watching the weekend tournaments I gotta revisit my picks.What do yall think?? 1-Anahuac-If they keep their players healthy and elgible they could win it. 2-Kountze-They are getting beat by good clubs.Need to get Walker back on the block. 3-Deweyville-Gets the 3rd spot if Caswell stays healthy.They are beating the folks they should beat. 4-EC-Most disappointing so far.A couple of solid players but are getting beat by teams they shouldn't. 5-Warren-Very inconsistant.Can play with 3 thru 7 or get beat by 30 you never know with this group. 6-Buna-They finally escape the cellar. 7-Hardin-I knew they would miss Marsh,Noland and Davis but I didn't see this coming. I think Anahuac and Kountze will split.The rest of the clubs will beat each other up and the 3rd place club could easily have 6 losses.Unfortunately I don't see a deep playoff run this year for anyone of these clubs.New Waverly and Newton get the nod to get to the regional tourney from this area. :-\ :-\ :-\

:o :o :o Anahuac may be the favorite in 23-aa.Huntsville usually has a good club ;)
