Vidor got 2 superlatives and a 1st team kid, BC got a superlative and a 1st team kid. They can’t get both right ?

That probably had a lot to do with BC and Vidor only having one each on 1st team.

Doesn't necessarily make it right.

Payton Jones will more than likely be All-State as well. Still feels werid Silsbee won't be in the Regionals this weekend. Don't wanna get use to that feeling. 

Was telling someone the other day that you know a program is in rarified air when you spend a season ranked in the top 10, go undefeated in district, win a playoff game, and then lose in the second round to one of the most storied programs in the history of the state from a city 350 times bigger than yours and the season feels like a huge disappointment.  A bad year for Silsbee is a dream season for most schools.  And this season will be the exception to the rule I’m sure for awhile.

How true your words are! Look at Bridge City. We’ve made the playoffs 2 years in a row and have gotten to the second round both times. That is such a great achievement for us. Then I read the other day that kids are talking about moving out of Silsbee because they lost out early?! Really? Has the mindset gotten that bad that they can never lose? This is humbling for them for sure but a great reason to come back strong which I’m sure they will.

Over the last 10 seasons, Silsbee was 15-2 vs. Houston ISD schools in the playoffs.

Silsbee has basically been running 4A Region III for the last 20 years. You had to beat them to win the region or Silsbee won the region. Only three seasons in the last 20 where a team won the region without beating Silsbee or Silsbee won the region. 

If Wheatley beats Yates tomorrow night, then that will make 18 out of last 21 seasons that the 4A Region III champ was either Silsbee or a team that eliminated Silsbee from the playoffs.

This 2nd round exit breaks a streak of 4 straight regional final appearances (9 of last 10 years Silsbee made regional finals).

Over the last 20 years, Silsbee played for the regional championship 14 times, winning it 7 times.

I agree, some rarified air.

Because of its consistency, Silsbee has been the standard in 4A.  The names and faces have changed out of DFW and hasn’t been one particular school like Silsbee.
