Guest tigersvoice Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 How can West Columbia be 29 - 0 and NOT BE in the top 20 rankings?
scoobydoo Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 How can West Columbia be 29 - 0 and NOT BE in the top 20 rankings?Possibly played weak schedule. I couldn't find much on them, just one article.Columbia girlshttp://www.brazoriacountynews.org/sports.htmlFrom the Brazoria County NewsGirls' basketball teams getting into playoff mode One task was completed while another is still not finished for area girls’ basketball teams. The Columbia Lady Roughnecks finished off a perfect 29-0 regular season with a 71-33 victory over Columbus last week. Columbia put a capper on the District 24-3A title with the victory, their second consecutive district crown. The Lady Necks have a combined 23-1 record in district play their last two seasons. With the district title, the Lady Necks earned a first round bye in the playoffs. That means they won’t play their first playoff game until late next week. They are looking to get a warm-up game against Liberty Hill this week. The Sweeny Lady Bulldogs have some work to do to earn their postseason spot. They will be a part of a mini-tournament along with Brookshire Royal and Stafford at Sealy High School to determine which team will be the third playoff representative out of District 24-3A. All three teams finished with identical 8-6 district marks. Sweeny won a coin toss Monday and won’t have to play until 5 p.m. Friday. Stafford and Brookshire Royal will play Thursday. The Lady Bulldogs (15-14) put together a big third quarter to take a 37-29 going into the final period and finished things off with a clutch performance at the free throw line down the stretch. Brittany Reado had 16 points while Dorrie Thompson had 12. Zapfire Reece finished with 10. In Columbia’s win over Columbus, Laura Whitehead had 27 points while Jade Davis had 18 points. Tiffany Johnson had 10 points and 12 rebounds while Kellie Kitchen had four points and seven rebounds. ................................Columbia lost their first playoff game last year by 20 points ( score was 49-29 - they had a first round bye, won their district with only 1 loss). The other two teams in their district also lost their first round playoff games. Don’t know if that is indicative of a weak district or not. Columbia is undefeated so far this year, so you can’t take them lightly. But I think it’s time for the Orangefield Lady Bobcats to hand them their first loss of the season and send them home. Go Orangefield!
scoobydoo Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Found two more articles about Columbia:http://thefacts.com/story.lasso?ewcd=486a58fd3451ed37http://thefacts.com/story.lasso?ewcd=08f37dec302cd3e6Hard to tell just how strong they are. One poll doesn't even have them in the top 20 and another has them at #13.

bobcatmom Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 Thanks for the further information a couple of those schools I couldn't find anything on and the 4A schools didn't have anything about basketball (records and such). I knew someone would know though....you people are way to smart.
bobcatfan Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Bobcatmom, sounds like you would like to know as much information about this team as possible so here is what i've heard about Columbia. Their best player Jade Davis averaged 25pts/game or something like that, she is a very good player, not as good as Britney Scott of WOS or Kellum of Kirbyville but just a notch below them. The rest of their starting 5 is solid but not spectacular. They have 2 posts that start that are around 5'9-10 that are decent athletes and ok basketball players but dont pose matchup problems. They dont shoot as well as OF or do anything better than OF. They've played a weak schedule and are not prepared for this kind of game. If we play well, i think we can win as much as 15-25 pts.
WO-S 89 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Like Gary Stelly was telling me this morning, W. Columbia is 29-0 for a reason. I'm with Gary , they must be pretty damn good. Good luck Orangefield. I hope that W. Columbia is 29-1 Friday night.
Cat22 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 No doubt. You can't be 29-0 and not be any good. Now I don't think they have played as tough of a schedule as OF has, but we must play our best to win. No easy teams from here on out for anyone!!!
Preacherskid Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 I know that Wharton is pretty salty, so if they were beat byWC twice.......wellgood luck
scoobydoo Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Lady Roughnecks won their warm-up game over Halletsville-Sacred Heart in a 2-point squeaker to make their record 30-0. http://www.brazoriacountynews.org/sports.htmlHalletsville-Sacred Heart is a small private (3-A in TAPPs) school, and they are ranked #5 in the latest TABC poll.
WO-S 89 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Like Gary Stelly was telling me this morning, W. Columbia is 29-0 for a reason. I'm with Gary , they must be pretty dang good. Good luck Orangefield. I hope that W. Columbia is 29-1 Friday night.Correction, I hope thier record is 30-1 after Friday.
Average Joe Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 OF all the way! Hope they win by 20. Just dont count the chickens utill the final buzzer goes off. Good Luck!
Guest bleed orange Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Don't worry we never count our chickens before they hatch. Our kids have to earn everything they get. We don't have super athletes. We are not big or fast but we will get after it. We never over look anyone, we can't afford to. But we do play well as a TEAM and that is why we win. We are just blessed to have hard working kids. I am sure some of the other teams in the area can say the samething.
bobcatfan Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Someone needs to bring a "30-1" sign to the game.
scoobydoo Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 How bad is the construction traffic between Beaumont and Barber's Hill on I-10? Any long delays? According to TX DOT there are lane closures east and westbound between Hwys 61 and 563. The closures are supposed to end at 3:30 but to expect delays. Anybody driven that way in the last few days?
Cat22 Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 I went that way on Monday and it really was not that bad. It was down to one lane around Anahuac, but the signs do say 8 to 3:30. So hopefully by the time we go through there it will not be a problem.
bobcatbychoice Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 What is the exit number for BH?
