West Orange Stark vs Orangefield

[tennisbc]

Should be a great series, who do you have? WOS in two close games.

WOS sweep 

[kicker]

Hate to see or predict one of our district mates going down but great season Bobcats! WOS is the real deal. On the flip side, atleast we get to watch some baseball playoffs without having to travel this week. Lol 

[tennisbc]

Any updates on time and place yet?

Hearing this will be a one gamer, OF won toss.

That doesn't make any sense to me. Does OF really think their best shot is beating Jack Dallas in 1 game? Dude is the best pitcher in this area. Not sure what Erickson is thinking on that one.

It's the strategy that got LCM further than anybody else last year. 

[whoisatfirst]

Makes alot of sense actually. I think everyone agrees that WOS is the better team, the better team almost always wins in a series. Go for one game and you never know what could happen.

When they have already lost to our #2 and #3 and we haven't seen their #1 either, it's probably their best strategy.

[Duggs3617]

I would understand it if they had a shutdown pitcher. Would love to see Jack Dallas' numbers.

Exactly.  I'm no baseball expert but this is exactly what I would have done.  Stubbs vs JD, one game, let the chips fall.  Although I agree Jack is one of, if not the best in the area, WOS staff is deeper imo.  Stubbs is easily OF's best arm so I believe this is their best chance. 

[tennisbc]

Makes sense, if a team has better depth than roll the dice. You never know a bad night by your best pitcher and it could be all over. Go Stangs!!!

Not so fast on the venue my friends...

If your scared, say your scared Orangefield! lol, just kidding. Good luck to all the boys on each team. Of course a little more for the mighty Blue and Silver.

Don't forget about Mason, he's been throwing great also!

I was told Lamar did not want to host three straight days. Did not have enough workers to cover all three days. It is why BC/Silsbee are not playing Friday night. Was told Lamar is hosting some softball gig on Friday night.

That may be correct. I was told it was for other reasons but nonetheless looks like Lamar is out of the question. Hopefully PNG will be settled on unless another game is already scheduled.

Yes he has.  But it's a pretty big drop off after Gonzales.  And he has really come on in the playoffs.  Still, over the course of a potential 3 game series, I would take my chance in a 1 vs 1.  You wouldn't take OF in a sweep, would you?

PNG plays BH in PNG friday night.. 

[tennisbc]

So I take it both coaches are trying to find another venue. Hopefully both can settle on something soon and great for fans as well.

Did PNG get our permission to use their field Friday night??  And will they have concessions?  Must be nice to have enough money you don't need more!  They could have easily made several thousand last weekend between the BC game and OF/HJ games.   At least let the poorer schools come in and profit if you're not going to use it!

[wo-s#1]

I like the jasper field,but that's a long ride for teams that are 3 miles apart...not saying that's where it will be,probably the next best field wise.

What about 1100 Saturday at Lamar?
