[/quote] yeah.  we decided that while Stallworth may not be the best player in the area, he's definitely the most balanced.  he awarded Gus the MVP of the game as well.  he also said he wasn't too concerned about Silsbee losing.  and he gave you credit for being dead on about HJ needed to making some threes early to open things up on the inside.  [/quote] I don't think the loss is a concern.  You hate to lose to your rival...especially HJ :D.  But a loss may help motivate the Tigers,I remember a Tiger team that hadn't lost a game all year and we all know what happened to them. It had been a while since the tigers had lost this may help keep them focused.

Does anyone know of any Houston area warmup or seeding games friday night that may be of interest?

I would hope they play better. Not sure as a Tiger fan that, provided we beat Rudder,  which team I would like to see WOS or Coldspring.  A local matchup would be nice but I might like to see new competition as well.  If I am at the game(and I may be), I would have to cheer for our district rivals.

Is this the chapter of officials used more in the playoffs?

I was hoping for another HJ/WOS doubleheader like last year.

it was a great atmosphere last night ... the noise,  the intensity and the chants going back and forth.  More tiger fans than the rest of the games combined too(minus first HJ game). Especially true for out of town games.

and if the two meet again in Huntsville........oh boy!

probably more hecklers last night than at the rest of the games this year combined

15-6 sam

Was going to be a blowout anyway now it will be as big as the Hawks want it to be.

What about Navasota and Rudders decision to pick who they would rather meet Silsbee or HJ?

I believe not only this district the last 3 years but one of these 3 teams for 4 straight years.

Well said AAW.

The charges were an issue for me as well. It seemed like none were called all night all blocking fouls. Then in one short stretch 3 charges that were no different than a lot of the blocking fouls. The sad part of the officiating last night is that in a game this close a blown call could end up being the difference. One bad call at the end and the Tigers could have tied or pulled it out. One more on the Tigers could have left them with a deficit too large to overtcome in the last few seconds. That wasn't the case but could have been.

So if HJ isn't any good, then one would say WOS doesn't have to be good to beat them. Wow. If I was a player I would watch my statements. 

If the game was too physical you would be right. Did not see much of that type of game last night a lot of touch fouls were called.

Yes, I forgot that was the probable matchup.  I will probably go see the WOS-Coldspring game. I said probable but can't count out Coldspring or overlook Rudder.

[/quote] Bryan Rudder has elected to go as the #2 seed out of that district instead of playing it off with Navasota. The word is that they feel they have a better chance going up against Silsbee than going the other route. Same with Navasota. They were fine with Rudder giving up the #1 seed because they would rather play HJ. I believe both those teams are in for a rude awakening. ;) [/quote] WOW!  Any ideas where that playoff game may be played? [/quote] If this is the case both the Hawks and Tigers need to come to play and show both these teams they made a poor choice.

One more question,  on the uil playoff brackets if has that the regional quarterfinals will be played monday the first.  Is that a set date or can in be played monday or tues the other dates up until regionals are a set of dates like 25-27.

[/quote] gotta factor in the fouls down the stretch by the tigers to intentionally put the hawks on the line...  that made the difference look a lot worse than it actually was. [/quote] Did widen the gap a little but not that much.  Great game,  I just wish they would have let both teams play a little more.
