Garrett Methvin faced 19 batters in Longview Spring Hill's 15-0 win over Gladewater and struck out all 19 batters.  1 batter reached base on a 3rd strike passed ball.  Methvin threw 79 pitches in 6 innings.

That is an incredible performance!

I heard the kid, don't know his name, sorry, from Navasota threw a no-hitter against Taylor the other night.  Considering Taylor is ranked 2, that has to be pretty incredible.

Derrick Hadley is his name.  Word is that he is going to Rice as a position player not a pitcher.  They might want to reconsider?

BCs Matt Hicks struck out 15 in the last ballgame and that was against a bonafied good 3A team from a strong 21-3A District.   ;D

I think you are just trying to give me a hard time, nevertheless....I saw Hicks pitch in the Nederland tournament.  I was very impressed.  It seemed to me that he has a tad more pop on his fastball than Methvin but Methvin had a more effective curveball.  However, to be fair, it was early in the season when I saw Hicks pitch (March 6) as compared to when I saw Methvin (April 7).

Yes Gwood... I was just joking with you ;D; however,  the overall pitching for BC is quite good and Hicks is becoming more exceptional.  Things have really progressed since the early days of the preseason.  BC did lose to a good Nederland 4A~~~ WAY back then. BC has never played a team they could beat 15-0 like Gladewater: who some feel is a hapless situation.

Seeing Nederland beat a prime PNG(this Tuesday night) with a one hitter by their stout Quarterback/ Ace Pitcher (Bellow); I feel that the loses back in early preseason are nothing to be ashamed of when that team--Nederland-- is at the top end of a good 4A District.

Sorry that I feel Cuero and Longview Spring Hill are just not playing the competition that dozens of other teams are facing-- is just a personal viewpoint.   LOL

Lets face it Gladewater is 0-7,1-13, I pity the team Gladewater beat   ::)

My opinion is that the "stars" of 17-3A: Spring Hill and Bullard would come in at the bottom of 21-3A if that had to compete in that setting.

the kid from navasota that no hit taylor must be something. what you know about him? did brooks throw against navasota that game?

I know very little about him.  I saw in the Brazos online newspaper that this was his 2nd no-hitter of the season.  The first against a 2A school-perfect game.  I looked at my Navasota roster and he is listed as a Junior so the "Rice" thing may just be a rumor.  At 5-4, Navasota is 2 games behind 3rd place Cameron Yoe (7-2).  They play Cameron Fri night.  Playoffs are within reach for navasota but they will need to win out.

Brooks did pitch for Taylor.  Gave up 4 hits, 1 run, 10 K's, 0 BBs in 7 IP.  You think that wins most games.  In the 5th he gave up a single, SAC, and a single that allowed the lone Navasota run.  Taylor lost 0-1.

Derek Sowell, junior lefty from Jasper struck out 15 last game against Huntington.  He has pitched in several close losses against the leading 18 3A teams Carthage 2-1,3-1 and Hudson 5-3.  He has really improved this spring and will be a force next year.

    • Regardless of the offense, kids need a reason or purpose to play football. Normally, for most kids, football is something they genuinely enjoy playing, because most players won’t be suiting up on Saturdays. At the end of the day, the most successful teams have kids and coaches that genuinely love the game and get joy and fulfillment playing it.  Vidor’s two current biggest issues are the lack of appeal to play the game and a lack of community support. The offense has been the same for years, and Mathews did a great job of getting the kids and community behind his teams year in and year out. Vidor’s whole identity was being a team you hated to play because you knew you were in for a long physical night. That made the game fun for the kids who played, and they took a lot of pride in it. Currently, I would argue that the toxic attitude of the community towards the offense and Dubois in general is the biggest thorn in the team’s side. The need for instant gratification from fans is what is fueling it all. When the players go home or out in the community and hear: how bad the offense is, how bad the defense is, or how bad the coaching is, the players will begin to lose pride in the program, and the game is no longer fun. This leads to discipline issues and players quitting. Vidor has lost their identity and Dubois and the offensive scheme isn’t the culprit. The Vidor community needs to leave their objections of who they hired at the door and let the man work if they wanna be successful in the future. 
    • We will see i heard they pretty dam good 3 losses but all to great teams
    • Yes. May have been Jimmies. What I’m seeing is a lot more teams going back to more ‘traditional style’ offenses. These things go in cycles, and it’s very difficult for all but mega schools to consistently find QB’s who can really be effective with a true spread type offense year in and year out. I’d venture to guess most schools have an outstanding QB that can win a game almost on their own only every few years if that, and that’s what you need for the ‘high flying’ spreads. So coaches go for the O’s that they can groom the majority of kids to be successful running, and take advantage of the superstar’s skills more within that O when they get them.
    • Always a great game… with big Ned on the road to far, I’m going to attend this one. Give me PAM! Tank going to have a 3 sack game 😎😎
    • That last one cost me $50
