They will compete. As far as starters I think the coach has a pretty good idea but nothing is in concrete! Bland will be a force inside and Jackson will be outside. One thing for sure whatever Pirate player is on the court he will be giving his all! Best of luck to the Pirates this coming season.

Deweyville will be an improved team from last year. Bland is a solid low post player and Jackson gives them a legitimate outside threat. Unfortunately, in district 24AA that just means that they are competing for 3rd. Good luck Pirates.

They will be competetive as long as Bland stays healty(heard thru the grapevine he broke a foot during a summer game) not sure about that.They will miss Bass tremendously as he was there best overall player.Jackson is a solid player but may struggle with his size against some of the bigger guards in the district.If Bland plays they will win some ballgames,without him it may be a long season.I don't see a playoff season in Deweyville in basketball but thats why they play the games.Their football club may be a horse of a different color.They will be pretty good.

Don't know about third place, Kountze will have something to say about that.

No Kevin bland did not break his foot, but I think the Pirates are going to be alot better this year, and more faster with Caleb, and Jimmy folsom back!

Glad to hear Kevin is healthy.I hope the pirates do well this season.I think they will be better but I don't think speed is gonna be there game.To be successful they will have to use Bland inside where he can get some boards.Did Jimmy play with them at Beaumont last month?I know he was hurt last year and missed the season.I like to see everyone in our district play well, it makes for some real fun games to watch.

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      I too, wish #15 was healthy and playing.  And also another RB (can't recall the #), who went down in the first game of the season. But, some others have stepped up and are hard runners.  I'm really looking forward to watching this game.

      Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story.

      West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      By Bordertown · Posted

      Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.
