What's up in 23AA

Recommended Posts

This has been one of the best Basketball districts in the state over the last 8-10 years.What in the heck is going on this year.Anahuac is the only club with a winning record at 4-2.Kountze has a sub 500 record but they are playing pretty good clubs.The rest of the clubs are a combined 6/25.Looks like a tough season in this district.After watching the weekend tournaments I gotta revisit my picks.What do yall think??

1-Anahuac-If they keep their players healthy and elgible they could win it.

2-Kountze-They are getting beat by good clubs.Need to get Walker back on the block.

3-Deweyville-Gets the 3rd spot if Caswell stays healthy.They are beating the folks they should beat.

4-EC-Most disappointing so far.A couple of solid players but are getting beat by teams they shouldn't.

5-Warren-Very inconsistant.Can play with 3 thru 7 or get beat by 30 you never know with this group.

6-Buna-They finally escape the cellar.

7-Hardin-I knew they would miss Marsh,Noland and Davis but I didn't see this coming.

I think Anahuac and Kountze will split.The rest of the clubs will beat each other up and the 3rd place club could easily have 6 losses.Unfortunately I don't see a deep playoff run this year for anyone of these clubs.New Waverly and Newton get the nod to get to the regional tourney from this area. :-\ :-\ :-\

I thought the same thing going in to the season but Anahuac looks to be much improved this year.They are playing a quality schedule to get ready for the Lions.The next week to 10 days will tell a lot about them but I think they will be able to compete with the Lions(the only club in the ditrict this year that can).Kountze will be more physical on the press but Anahuac will shoot the ball better.It will be a fun game to watch.I can see a split and another playin game at the Montagne coming in February.

    • This is good info. It doesn’t really break out for student athletes though. LP & (I think) DP are open enrollment because of the way the towns intertwine. That’s the way it’s been for many years anyway. I assume it still is that way. The kids have a choice after Jr. High to go to either High School because LPISD has elementary schools in DP. As I recall, DP didn’t want to build out more (Robin Hood issues), and so DPISD & LPISD came to an arrangement because LPISD is one of the highest givers to Robin Hood in the state, and it helped both keep more funds in district. Of course, LPISD is open to all. Not just DP, and LPISD is rated well. So, I assume they have kids from elsewhere also. Not positive though. They used to have a lot because—for decades—DeWalt was the only dedicated public school in the GHA that specifically catered to special needs kids. Families from all over enrolled. But, they didn’t participate in extracurricular activities like sports. So, LP’s total enrollment made them 6A. But, they were really a 5A school all along for sports program sake. This is all as best as I can recall from when I was more involved in school issues. I’m sure a lot has changed since then. My kids have been out for 20 years.
    • Our playoff rivalry. They hold a 6-5 edge in the series. I think Newton continues the win streak in a hard fought contest. What say y’all?
    • Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet?  Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does “get you.” 😂🤣
    • It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
