The early week games have been played with some results surprising but most as expected. 

The Dayton Broncos threw an early monkey wrench right in the middle of the District 22-4A race when they outlasted Vidor 14-11.  The Broncos sit atop the district race with PNG at 3-0 and, all of the sudden, Friday's LCM (2-1) @ Dayton game takes on new meaning.  Meanwhile, Vidor (2-1) will try and rebound against the surprising Central Jaguars (2-1).  Vidor's loss to Dayton may not be the Pirates' biggest loss on Tuesday night.  Standout SS VJ Bunner suffered what appeared to be a major ankle injury.  His loss would be a tremendous blow to Coach Kyle Green.  By the way, who would've ever thought (3 games deep) that the bottom dwellers in 22-4A would be Nederland and Ozen?  But there they are at 0-3.  Over in 21-4A, the Barbers Hill Eagles continued to flex their muscles behind Ross Hales' pitching prowness in an 11-1 rout of New Caney.  New Caney, fresh off a 4-3 win over Huffman, had been expected to challenge the Eagles but BH proved to be simply too strong.

Down in 3A, the favorites all 'held serve' as BC, Jasper and Silsbee were all winners.  BC was again sluggish in their 10-8 win over luckless HF, needing another relief appearance from freshman Matt Hicks to cover another short outing from team ace Jeff Stringer.  Jasper toyed with HJ 9-5 and the Hawks desperately need to beat one of the 21-3A favorites to get back in the race.  The Bulldogs incidentally are primed for their trip to Silsbee where the Tigers are fresh off a 7-3 win vs. Kirbyville.  Silsbee rode Kevin McDonald's 12 strikeout performance for the win, clearing the way for mound ace Joel Schooling to throw against Jasper.

Up in 5A, the West Brook Bruins clobbered 13 hits (including Tim Ferguson's HR and 3 hit nights from Mark Serna and Josh Fisher) to blister Baytown Lee 10-2.  They travel back to Baytown for a Friday night rumble with district 21-5A co-favorite Sterling. 

Just another typical Tuesday in SE Texas...

MIF04 I  really think something is wrong at Ozen. I have seen their last three games and they get worst every game. not to take nothing away from their opponets. all three or good but, they cant field, hit, or run the pads. pitching is o.k but with the errors its bad.There is talent over there. I went to the game last nite Lott threw well enough to win,but fastball not were it was preseason. James came in and threw good. the other kid that threw against Dayton threw o.k but the results is the same.all three can swing the bat but u would not know it. Im just thinking something is wrong. ???

      I have no issue with that however…. Rick Perry, although seemingly not really popular even with Republicans, was almost impossible to beat. The Texas conservatives just needed that tough, real conservative with an already popular voting base. Someone that has been elected to both Texas state office and federal office.  Boom! In 2010 in steps Kay Bailey Hutchison, a popular sitting US Senator and former Texas Treasurer. So she has been elected, statewide in both a state political position and nationally as a senator. A Rasmussen poll in 2009 showed Hutchison with a 40% to 38% lead over Perry. She had high profile endorsements as did Perry. Hutchison was endorsed by the likes of G H W Bush, Nolan Ryan, Roger Staubach, etc. If people are actually going to listen to endorsements, those are some fairly well thought of people in Texas. Primary day was between Perry, Hutchison and Debra Medina. Hutchison was beaten by Perry 51% to 30% and he got enough votes to avoid a runoff. Obviously, that has no bearing on today. It does show that just because a person is very popular and already elected to national office from Texas such as Kay Bailey Hutchison, it does not ensure a good showing in the polls against an incumbent. It will be interesting for sure.

      Texarkana Texas (28) vs Port Neches-Groves (31) - FINAL

      WOW what a game. just got home, I'm gonna sleep with a big smile all night. PNG QB passes were spot on tonight, lil #17 freshman receiver had huge catches at critical times in the game. # 44 had a couple of huge catches including the 'jump pass' on 4th down for a touchdown.  #4 made big plays at key times on both sides of the ball, he is a beast. #11 played his usual consistent game with big time catches and a couple of good punts and a good job of just falling on a bobbled kick reception. #27 probably had 125 yards or so rushing. The defensive backs did a good job, bending but not breaking including the interception in the end zone. I thought the TH coaches messed up not trying to score with the high power players they have when they got the fumble right before half with 45 seconds or so on the clock and 3 TO left, if they would have scored then it would have broke our backs. I know it was 90 yards to go but they could cover the field in 3 or 4 plays. This is one of the most exciting wins in PNG's long history of exciting wins. Oh yeah kudos to the fans for getting in to the game at key times and in my Opinion making a big difference. 😂
