No you said the refs were Silsbee's MVP which implies that it wasn't the play of the girls but the calls by the refs.  the game is online and Lumberton did alot of fouling which turned into alot of free throws!! Lumberton shot plenty of free throws, but only Lumberton went to the line legitimately..right?? The refs did not HELP out a helluva lot. Lumberton didn't play well and the seniors couldn't contain the Silsbee Freshman. Lumberton's press was lazy with alot of reaching and Silsbee passed or dribbled right out of it.  The lead early on was off of beating the press resulting  wide open shots or having numbers.  Just accept the L and give the Silsbee girls their credit.  Crying about the refs is weak! Period!

The most common thing about referees is that the losing team knows that the refs cheated them and the winning team knows the refs did a good job. Doesn't matter which side youj were on. No one thinks abou the fact that those folks don't necessarily have kids in school and that they take a lot of time out studying and driving to different games to make sure they are played fairly.

I don’t think the refs cheated at all. They were just crappy refs. Lol.

I watched the video, Lumberton got outplayed and out coached. Morris got into foul trouble early and those were not bad calls, those were silly fouls and she had to sit down early in the 1st qtr. Silsbee took full advantage in the first qtr with Morris, Postula and Le all being on the bench at the same time.

Yes- as a Silsbee fan I couldn't believe they were all benched at the same time!! Christmas in February!

I’m sure he has his reasons, but I would want to play the game against a quality opponent to get ready for the playoffs.

We won the toss...Silsbee enters the playoffs as #1 seed.  I agree, would have been a good warm up for both teams.

Silsbee will face probably Livingston or Splendora 1st round, then Yates or Navasota the 2nd.  3rd round will be against HJ.

Lumberton will face Huffman 1st, then either Kashmere or Bellville 2nd.  Not sure who their opponent will be 3rd round but it will be one out of Liberty, Orangefield, Royal and Worthing.

Guaranteed end of the line. That’s why the 2nd seed was the way to go.
