The SETXsports Girls Basketball preseason rankings will be announced tomorrow evening.  Look for the sticky at the top of the girls basketball forum.  The ranking will be released in a new format this season.  Should be another exciting year for girls basketball in SETX!!

[quote name="PitcherDad" post="688380" timestamp="1256727925"] Just curious,...why would BC & OF "flip" for playoff seeding rather than play for it ? [/quote] Maybe because 1st round playoff games have to be played either Monday or Tuesday, therefore BC/OF would have to play either Friday or Saturday.  Friday is the football game and if they play Saturday, then whoever they play in the 1st round could decide to play Monday and that would not give you much time to prepare for whoever you play the 1st round.  If they flip, then it gives you more time to prepare for that 1st game.  Just my thoughts.

Heard tonight that they will probably flip for playoff seeding.

HF beat OF tonight 25-12, 25-15, 30-28 to win the district championship.

HF wins first two games over OF, in 3rd right now!

Here Bobcat05, what do you think about Bobcatfan4life's sugestion on spliting between 5A-3A and 2A/Privates?

We have Silsbee next! [/quote] Two of Orangefield's RB are out, one lost to grades and the other fractured fibula, he is also a starting LB.  It may not have mattered, but it hurts when you lose two starting RB's and a LB.

[quote name="WOSgrad" post="685718" timestamp="1256482431"] It looks like that third place team out of 21-3A will play Coldspring.  Two teams have wrapped up playoff spots out of 22-3A.  Cleveland will be going Division I and Coldspring will be the #1 Division II team out of that district. [/quote] Those top two teams from 22-3A are good.  It will be hard for 21 to win either of those games.  Silsbee and Cleveland should be a great game.  If Silsbee's defense can continue to play the way they have, I like their chances.

Possible concussion.  In the ER as we speak.

May be a long night for OF if Huckabay can't play!!

Just heard OF moved some JV players up to varsity too.

Why is there not a freshman game?

Orangefield might get alot of rain Friday!!

We could have Dayton and Crosby also and the Baytown Schools.

I saw where they had Orangefield #93, BC #67. Looks like what is hurting OF is schedule (136) and defense (141), however offense is good (36).

I hear ya. Actually though, it could be an advantage to OF with HJ having a new coach, it could give the OF coaches a chance to see what kind of schemes Coach Davis runs. I don't know, but I would think not much will change from the previous years. I think the coaches know what the other will try to do. Should be another fun year.

Hey hjhawk, I see both HJ and OF may meet up before district considering they are both in the Nederland and Livingston tournaments. Do you like the idea of playing your district rival before district?
