Pressing teams have problems with teams that they can't press into points.  That style of play is falling by the wayside.  

100% correct

Only thing I hate for SeTx schools.  Smaller (relatively) schools I mean.  It seems like there is an ingrained idea that you can just fly around and scare the other team into turning it over (Kountze, HJ, Silsbee, EC).  That may have definitely been the case in the past but now eventually you'll run into just a sound basketball team.  When forced into a halfcourt basketball game with a good basketball team it usually doesn't end well.  I know people will say that Silsbee had great success with it, and that's true, but with that amount of talent it probably didn't matter.

Silsbee just had an insane talent abundance and honestly shouldn’t have lost to Yates last weekend but I’m not gonna get on that subject.

The press wasnt the problem.  Brocks height played a big part, missed shots,  and our missed free throws.

A stifling press will beat teams every time if they don't have the backcourt personel to beat it. It doesn't have to result in points or turnovers to be successful . The teams mentioned do it a lot to wear folks down. The teams with fundamentally sound guards usually adjust well. When you look at EC, Kountze, Silsbee and HJ it's hard to argue with the the results those four have had. Congrats to EC on a great season.

2 for 18 behind the arc and 20 for 50 overall.

Tough to win shooting it like that.  For a team like EC, that’s beyond a “bad shooting night.”

[whsalum]

Not the easiest surroundings to shoot in. Not sure you can simulate that anywhere else

Bad depth perception in an arena.

EC forced 18 turnovers. And only had 10. The press created a lot of opportunities to score. If we would not have pressed, we would have got beat by 20 and it wouldn’t have been competitive. Brock would have dominated that game. EC shooting 2 for 19 from 3, was the difference.

Silsbee put a 40 piece win on Brock, but that was a few seasons ago.  The memories, sigh.

May be a few before it happens again lol

At this point in the season you gotta go with what got you to SA and if that's full court pressure then don't throw it out the window for one game.

I’m claiming them anyway.   Their beast of a big man’s daddy’s side of the family is from Orange so we are claiming him at a minimum!

[AggiesAreWe]

Shelbyville is one of our coverage area teams. So as far as this site goes, they are SETX

Ok, good deal - I have been able to see them play a few times over the past three years - it has been fun to see how they developed and matured - we could see the potential and now they are fulfilling it... Great team!  Good Luck to them tomorrow!   Bring it Home!

Looks like Shelbyville is loaded for next year.

Shelbyville every player said last year they had trouble with the perception. Made a huge deference having everyone back this year.
