Silsbee could potentially go up against Lancaster, if they make the championship game. Also, D SOC is a name to be respected, although I don't what kind of team they have this season.

I think Silsbee & D Lincoln go head to head in the Dallas tournament.

I was there as well. If I remember correctly Silsbee played a similar schedule last year. The difference is the team they played at 4:30pm was FB Ridge point. There is a big difference between playing ridge point with little rest, and playing Hightower with the same.

i googled fort bend basketball tournament 2016, or some'n like that.

More local tournament home cooking. On Dec 8th FB Hightower plays Baytown Sterling at 9am then Silsbee at 430pm. Meanwhile Silsbee on the same day plays at 1:30pm then fb Hightower at 430pm.

Nice win Silsbee!

Hold on Silsbee.

If you travel 300 mi to SA, & spend on hotel rooms, gas, etc., you are indeed a loyal Silsbee Tigers fan.

They're playing that game now.

Yep. Harlingen S, my bad.

Los Fresnos @ 1:30pm.

Smooth out a few rough edges & Silsbee could of won this game. Wagner is good but I don't think they will be #! at the end of the season in 6A.

Wagner can be beaten.

If Tristan Clark, Wagner's 6;9" post is as good as advertised...Wagner hasn't been tested yet this year. Silsbee may or may not supply that test. I'm guessing some 6a school from that region will.

He can't be any better than that pg for Houston Christian.

It's called exploitation.

So, Silsbee needs to play smart and efficient, and somehow force Wagner into turnovers with the press.

I saw Houston Sam Houston play against Westbury Christian. I got an ole school inner city, North of Downtown vibe from them. For some reason they remind me of some of the great Wheatley teams, or Kashmere in their heyday. Maybe even the old Sam Houston HS which won a state championship in the 80s. On a fast break Kendrick Davis hit a nice layup, but that big post, Banks for WC, body checked him hard as they tumbled passed the baseline. It was unintentional I am sure. KD was writhing in pain. I thought he had messed up his knee, or broke an ankle. Five minutes later he was back on the court tossing some incredible pin point assist passes. Sam Hous only suited up 8 or 9 guys, but they are a tough 8 or 9. If they played Silsbee it would be interesting for a little while. Silsbee's press, and depth would probably keep them in the game, but eventually Sam Houston would win by 10 or more. That team is battle tested.

Thursday's game though...

Silsbee gives away a lot of easy points on missed dunks and layups.

I could leave work right now and make it on time, but I'm staying home.

If you step back and look at the big picture, the ncaa is messed up. if a player makes a few dollars selling autographs it's a big scandal. Or if a coach pulls out his credit card and buys one of his players plane tickets to fly home and see their parents it is a scandal. Names are vilified, reputations are tarnished. Programs are sanctioned. IF a player tries to transfer he loses time. But, a coach is free to jump around from one million dollar contract to another, with no regard for the current contract with their team. Something is jacked up about that.

Lincoln started slow last year. they were a very young team putting it all together. Last year they probably went up against the best teams in the DFW area. By the time the playoffs rolled around they had double digit losses. If they had 10 come back from a state champion team, they will be hard to be. If any team can do it, it is Silsbee. Nobody said it would be easy.

I hear Applewhite probably won't return to Texas because he had an affair with a female team trainer on a road trip. That incident set of some messy legal actions, etc.

All the basketball mercenaries must have left the Lancaster campus.
