EC v HJ round 3 at FORD PARK


Recommended Posts

Looks like both clubs are looking forward to playing under the big lights. Both coaches thought about canceling this game. They have played 2 this year and both clubs could  use the rest for Dist play starting Tuesday, but both groups of kids really wonted to play in the big gym. I think both clubs respect each other and play clean and hard so here we go ring the bell round 3 starts Sat. night at 5:00

I've always thought you were better off playing than resting but this game is probably not real good for either club.Both of these clubs will pull a pretty good crowd playing at either ones home court but the semi pro club that plays at Ford Park doesn't pull much in the way of attendance so I don't see the big lights aspect.Neutral fans will go see Silsbee/Kountze HJ/Silsbee or Kountze/HJ but not many are gonna watch a rematch of a 31 point blow out.I would like to see a 2 game set at Ford Park with E/C playing Spurger and HJ taking on either the Brook or Cleveland.I would definitely pay to watch those.

[/quote] That machup does sound nice, but when this game was set Ec had just played HJ to a 3 point game. I to dont see much gained by playing the same team over and over.  But it will be nice for the kids to get to play at Ford Park. Hope to maybe get to see Ec and Spurger  matchup in a warm up game to start off the playoffs

HJ and EC,

There are other high school basketball teams in the area. It won't hurt to play somebody besides yourselves, I promise.
[/quote] neather HJ nor EC planned this game they were invited to play. They were not scheduled to play but once this year. They just happen to meet up in the tour.

Kountze Vs Cleveland or P.A Memorial    warm up game.
[b]Silsbee Vs Hardin Jefferson    for seed[/b]
Bmt Central Vs Nerderland     for seed

I think we could see this Playoff Preview this year.

[/quote] The last 2 games you will prob. see but as good as Kountze is I dont think that they have enough depth to play with the 4 and 5a schools. They have 6 good players but they really fall off after that. And if eather one of the dunkers get in foul trouble they are in troub.

[/quote] I am in no way a Kountze fan but having watched them play a few games I dont see anyone beating them by 20 Not saying they cant be beat but not by 20

No doubt

If you asked Memorial they would tell you they would not beat Kountze by 20... It would be a good game because Kountze played them pretty close this summer losing by 2
and they played w/o Troy Whisenant and Demarcus Tealer.

    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?
    • Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.  
    • The baseball coach has a ton of experience at high school and college level and hasn’t done anything for I think around 7 years now,it’s just something that the higher ups live with.And there has been talent come through that he hasn’t done anything with!
    • If I had to point out one team that has impressed me the most; Barbers Hill
