Great season EC. I really thought you guys might win it all this year. Not sure what happened here.

And now the decline of EC basketball begins, or does it ?  Surely, the level at which they've been playing will decline with the loss of 12 yr starter Ernest Ceasar.

There will probably be a slight decline. They’ll still be a good team though

As long as the guy sitting in the first chair stays there EC ain’t going anywhere.

12 yr starter LMAO!!!

Pretty impressive Cole is back in the semis after losing their all world 7 footer to La Lumiere in Indiana before the school year started.   If Vince were still there, he would have been the best big in the state, regardless of classification.

12 year starter... must have had trouble with the high school curriculum. Had an older build and look but never grew to a respectable height as a 30 year old.

How many players are coming back? The loss of Caesar and Green will hurt... How were their under level teams?

They return a few role players from this year. The JV won district, and i believe only had 1 loss on the season. This incoming group of sophomores and juniors were pretty good in junior high. Will still have a respectable team on the court next year.

Congratulations EC on  great season.

Eh... it takes the coaching and talent. Some coaches can do more with less but some never have to:-)

The guy at East Chambers is one of the best around. He can beat ya with his or could beat ya with yours. It’s no coincidence that he has state tournament championships and appearances at every school he’s coached at.

He had a state tournament appearance at West Orange Stark?

No sir but at Kountze, HJ and EC he has. I Didn’t follow the Mustangs I don’t guess when he coached over there but with that stable of athletes he could very easily had them in the big dance as well.

That would've been his biggest challenge.

No doubt he is one of the best and I wasn’t doubting his coaching abilities. He was my favorite coach in high school and a great person, But like most all time great coaches the talent has been there to
