Unfortunately I got Hitchcock here they are big athletic and good. Great combination. Hitchcock by 12ish. But if orangefield can play their very best ball they could give them a run.

Hitchcock -16

Hitchcock has been my pick for state since week 0. Brought the house back. Big, athletic, and fundamental sound.

Orangefield will travel good i’m sure. Hope fans will make an impact also!

OF has a chance in a low scoring game.  If this game gets into the mid 60’s or higher that favors Hitchcock.  That being said Hitchcock by 13.

Hitchcock by 15

[bullets13]

Hitchcock hasn’t lost a game to a 3A and under opponent this year, and has several wins over 4A and 5A schools.  They beat #6 Shallowater by 5, and their next closest game against a 3A school was their 23-point win over #23 Diboll last round.  They’re the real deal.  Orangefield has looked good in the playoffs so far, but it’s going to be a struggle to keep this one within 15.

Central Heights and Diboll played them to competitive games in December. Hitchcock is the favorite, but I would say they play in one of the worst 3A districts in the state and they have not been in competitive games in a while.  I know from watching Orangefield they are battle tested. Anything can happen on a given night.

You’re right.  Missed that when I was scrolling through their schedule.

No we lost 46-42. They scored with 17 secs left. We missed our next shot and fouled with 1.5secs left but he made both free throws.
