Tigers94

Kountze is in the same region as Hitchcock. Making it too state is going to be a tough task. Think they can make it to region.

Top scorers from yesterday. Bottley - 20 Harris - 17 Elam - 9 Going to need a big from Harris today. He needs to play like he did against Lufkin.

Wouldn't have been a great game anyways with no Miller or Johnson. Not sure how far Silsbee can go with the team that's out there. Swear BTW is stalking us or something lol.

Hope Harris is okay. He came up a little limp on an attempted dunk. Might have hurt his groin or something. With this being basically the same team that played at the YMBL, I hope we break even in the wins and losses. Kinda lame we play another Texas team if Westbury Christian wins. Edit: I see Carver won that game with Westbury Christian, so that's good, I guess.

Need to just run the clock and force them to foul.

51 - 43 to start the 4th. Y`all can watch here: [Hidden Content]

Tigers up 49 - 39 also.

Miller is playing in the All American Bowl Saturday. Johnson will be back in a few weeks.

Ugly game. Every team in district should receive similar treatment though, especially when we FINALLY have our entire roster out there playing for some of the rematches.

69 - 35 in the 3rd. Not really surprised. Game is like taking off 100 pound ankle weights compared to what the Tigers were just playing in Arkansas.

Johnson has had a knee injury. I think they just want to be really careful with that. Some can call this being too picky if they want, but Silsbee needs to do more than just compete well with the good teams they play. Could have easily went 3 - 0 this week if they played 4 solid quarters of basketball. Saw where there were 54 fouls and 68 free throws taken in the Dville game. I hope we didn't toss up too many bricks from the ft line in that one. Lets get a few dubs in New Orleans after we take care of Vidor.

Allen has like 7,000 kids to build a roster from. They should be class 8A or something if it existed. Hate to say it, but Booker T has to be the favorite to come out of R3 in 4A right now. They got a nice win over Little Rock Christian Academy. Silsbee has some work to do.

I missed most of this one, but I heard one kid from Dville lit us up for 40 points?

88 - 85 Dville 20 seconds left.

Tied up at 9 - 9. End of the 1st. Bout to have to step away. Check the King Cotton Twitter for updates if nobody is doing it here.

Tigers have one common opponent with Duncanville, that being Lufkin. Hope that isn't an indication of how tomorrow's game will go, as Dville handled Lufkin easy. They can light it up from 3 from what little I've seen of them. Really looks like Gonzaga may roll everyone at this tournament.

Wow....I just knew we were getting BU vs Lake Travis in this tourney. What in the world happened to LT?

One problem I've noticed is Silsbee often tries to push the ball up the court too fast when they get it and will turn it right back over. This usually leads to free points for the other team. They need to teach these kids to pay attention first and foremost before passing the ball out. And one of our star players needs to take it to the hoop and draw fouls when we go cold shooting the ball. Still, there's no real shame in losing this one. It should be perfectly clear by now what we need to clean up if we want to be playing in March.

Silsbee will play Benton (AR) at 11:30 tomorrow. Duncanville lost to Pine Bluff 84 - 79. Were getting their butts kicked, but made a furious comeback to make a game of it.

Other scores from the Allen tournament. Lake Travis - 74 Lake Highlands - 56 Allen - 81 Naaman Forest - 47 Amarillo - 55 Wylie - 48 Beaumont United will play Amarillo if they beat Mesquite Horn, will play Wylie if they lose.

Booker T Washington - 78 St. Francis Academy (MD) - 83 Final. No idea who Silsbee plays tomorrow. Think Duncanville is playing right now or very soon.

There's a pay per view for the King Cotton Classic.

Booker T is also playing in the King Cotton Classic this year. I don't think any Texas teams ended up playing one another last year. Not sure if it was set up that way on purpose, or if that's just how the brackets played out. As for this game, honestly, Silsbee looked very disinterested in this matchup. No real intensity or fire. I think they did a better job on the boards in the 3rd by starting Elam.
