Recommended Posts

Kountze seems to be peaking at the right time. If they play solid defense and knock down free throws they will have a chance at the upset. Kountze 63 Teague 60. 

I think this team is probably Jouberts best coaching job he has done.

Joubert has pulled a rabbit out the hat with this team. I don't think anyone (other than the players) thought they would still be playing at this point in the season. This reminds me of the 2012 run when a similar Kountze team upset Edgewood in the Reg. Semis and almost knocked off #1 White Oak in the Regional Finals.

Teague did not lose much from last year. They brought back their two of their top-3 scorers from last year including leading scorer Mylan Shed #21. IMO he is their best player because he can play inside and outside. Weathers is mainly a 3pt guy. If you remember the game last year Teague was not afraid to take the ball to the rim against us and if it wasn't for the late heroics of a kid named Grayland Arnold we would've lost. We will need to limit their open 3s and rebound to win this game. We can't afford a slow start or the road will end Friday night. 

A good omen.... Kountze has won 16 straight Regional Semi-final games.

Very correct statements. There are two primary reasons that Kountze has the ability to make it to Regionals every year:   A.) Joubert is a great coach and he implements a playing style that does not rely on superstar performances, but it rely's on hustle and teamwork.  B.) The kids at Kountze have such a strong confidence after 20+ years of winning at a high level that they literally believe they can make it to state every year no matter what the roster looks like.

If you take this same group of kids, put them with a mediocre coach, and take that "Kountze Confidence" away from them, then they are probably going out in the 2nd round of the playoffs. That's not meant as a knock on this group of kids, but it is a testament to their extreme confidence and Joubert's ability as a coach.

Honestly we would have been put in the first round this year lol. I've been saying this since the start of the playoffs. Survive and advance!

Teague Brought every single player back from last years team. We are hungry for a win over yall this season........Look for a very quick start from Teague and a hard push to finish the game. These boys last year just didn't have enough to stop the GREAT Arnold but he isn't there this season for yall......Look for the exact same type of game but yall will not have any heroics this season.

Teague 78

Kountze 64

I believe you said this exact thing last year, except you were a little more confident then. You have no idea who Kountze has do you? You seem to forget the Kountze starter who got injured in the first minute of the game last year. He's back. You also didn't have the pleasure of playing against our 6'4" post guy Michael Cole. He didn't play in last years playoffs. He's back. 

Good luck. This is your 3rd shot to get past the Semi-final round. The 3rd times a charm, right?

Nope did not say that last season because we were very young squad mostly sophomores with some juniors. This team is Heavy Junior lead with 5 seniors......We were young and let yall off the hook last season with the heroics of Arnold....this season we will not let yall off the hook you can bet that!

Best of luck to y'all!

And for the record, you had 6 Seniors last year, although your two Jrs. did lead the team in scoring. A team that "supposedly" returned everyone shouldn't lose that many games early in the season. Stop the madness.

    • This is good info. It doesn’t really break out for student athletes though. LP & (I think) DP are open enrollment because of the way the towns intertwine. That’s the way it’s been for many years anyway. I assume it still is that way. The kids have a choice after Jr. High to go to either High School because LPISD has elementary schools in DP. As I recall, DP didn’t want to build out more (Robin Hood issues), and so DPISD & LPISD came to an arrangement because LPISD is one of the highest givers to Robin Hood in the state, and it helped both keep more funds in district. Of course, LPISD is open to all. Not just DP, and LPISD is rated well. So, I assume they have kids from elsewhere also. Not positive though. They used to have a lot because—for decades—DeWalt was the only dedicated public school in the GHA that specifically catered to special needs kids. Families from all over enrolled. But, they didn’t participate in extracurricular activities like sports. So, LP’s total enrollment made them 6A. But, they were really a 5A school all along for sports program sake. This is all as best as I can recall from when I was more involved in school issues. I’m sure a lot has changed since then. My kids have been out for 20 years.
    • Our playoff rivalry. They hold a 6-5 edge in the series. I think Newton continues the win streak in a hard fought contest. What say y’all?
    • Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet?  Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does “get you.” 😂🤣
    • It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
