First I'm glad I am not alone in my thoughts. In response to HJHAWKS comments there is no excuse for the discrepancies between boys and girls. Fact is girls games get through earlier than boys games and their scores and highlights aren't there.I realize there are time restaints so why not a 15 minute basketball blitz for all basketball games. I personly have called into all three stations to report scores and did not get one to air.This is my thoughts on how to get the girls recognized. First pick a date and get all fans, parents, coaches, and players to email the TV directors ( not sports guys ) that we want to see our girls get more attention. I beleive this may do the trick. With all the responses we can make a difference. We need to include Lamar lady cardinals because they have the same problems. One of their players scored 44 points in a win and the men got a huge article in the paper after a blowout loss and the girls got a afterthought. The only way to make changes for the better is for people to let their voices be heard and if that don.t do it, then you have to take a more public stand maybe even get national attention if that is what it takes to help all the young ladies in our area and beyond.Please continue to respond and lets get our thoughts togeather and make a difference.

I am grateful for this forum to get information from our local teams. I am wondering why our local TV stations will only show area boys events. Even tonight it was all about football that will play on friday. I like football and want to know the scores and highlights but, tonight is basketball and I tuned in to see basketball scores. If I want to know about Pro sports I will watch espn. The local stations should show local games. Boys and Girls in our area! I can't be the only one who thinks this way. I'm curious to know if organizing to protest would get their attention or emailing the stations by a bunch of fans who want to see our Girls respected a little bit.Girls work hard every week to prepare just like boys and they deserve to be acknowledged also. Please reply with your thoughts.

This was a great job by These girls. The first game was 2 overtimes against a tomball team who didn't lose another game. The 2nd game was one for the ages with great team defense and also great play from the point gaurd who made 19 of 25 freethrows and had 32 points to lead the team.It had a very hard charge at the end that the big girl took that the offensive player didn't get up from.After this weekend Katelyn Bernsen Name should be mentioned with Ang Green as top players in this area.The tournment keeps stats for previous years and she Broke three records and was 2 points shy of being in the most points scored for the tournament. Great job to her and the entire team!

For the past three or four years If talked about what a great team orangefield had because I loved to see teams that played as a team. I'm glad to see your picks because HJ has a really good team this year. They play a lot like Orangefield in 2005. That team was really good and I hope HJ can play as well as them.

When you watch teams wins and losses you look at who they play what the outcome and how much of a difference to rank them. That is how it is done and to say that is dumb means someone just does'nt get it. My point is HJ has played 4 5a schools in the past week and won all them! Yet teams who are lossing are barely beating 2a schools are ranked higher because of previous years. HJ will win their district, Silsbee will be second and the final spot will go to the winner of Orangefeild and Hampshire Fannett. You don't have to beleive me just wait to the end of the season and see who is left.

Even though I know these will change but, HJ beat Central pretty good the other day before this was printed so who ever printed this must not have known.

HJ has a very good team this year and are going to turn a lot of heads. They have a lot of talent at all positions with heght, quickness, and a really good point guard to lead them. The one thing they haven't had for a while is a bench but, they will be 10 strong all with different talents to help their team. If you don't like HJ I'm sorry because they could go all the way!
