My only concern is that they come out flat tonight.  Ten days with out playing will show early on in the game.  My son tells me they have had good practices and have a better handle on the Offense.  High Island has played this group from Warren several times over the last few years and I believe they have both won and lost equally.  It should be a very good game.  Cardinals play hard and give yourself a chance to win it in the 4th Period.  It will take everything you have, so be ready when you hit the floor.  Play Smart, keep your mouths shut and let the refs make the calls.

It will be a good game to the end.

Go CARDINALS!!!

I think the last time HI beat Warren in a varsity baskeball game was in 2003-2004 at the Spurger tourney.Warren holds the edge in this series about 5-1 over the last 6 years.That being said HI has never played this group,these kids had never started a varsity game before this season.They are unpredictable so I'll say the game will be close.Usually the home court is worth a little but from what I'm hearing HI is improved so I'll go with Warren by 3.

Warren-39

HI-36

You did not understand what I was talking about.  The Seniors that were on the court tonight have played each other few times over the past three years.  I did not say anything about Varsity.

This was a very physical game to say the least.  Warren jumped out to a big lead, but High Island fought back.  The rust from an almost 2 week lay off hurt the Cards more than Warren's game did.  The first half was very flat for the Cardinals, but the second half was way better and they showed the intensity and spirit that they showed the previous 6 games.  The halftime score was 35-11, but the second half is was as even as you could ask for, 30-30.  #2 can stroke it that is for sure.  He singled handedly broke the Cards run going 12 for 12 from the free throw line in the 4th.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      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!)
