court side Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Who yall think has the toughest match up for monday.After looking at who all is playing I would have to sayKountze/New WaverlyandHJ/Cleveland
Guest ktzlionsfan Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 [color=red]I completely agree with both of your match-ups.[/color]
Bucof2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 definately those twoI think hj has tougher than ktz
FanintheStands Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 HJ has the tougher match up, Although.........Silsbee, who has been sluggish the last 3 games, has to beat WOS for the third time this year. Not an easy task. Other than the Orangefield debacle, WOS has been on a roll as of late.Kountze should match up well with New Waverly. I think Kountze should come out the winner on this one.One thing about HJ is that they are so easily underestimated.

HoopInsider_Cooper Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 [font=Courier]Underestimated? Come on now. My gut (which is rather big these days) tells me H-J will upset Cleveland. Friends from around Region III (especially in H-town) say there is no way Cleveland loses this game. If H-J hangs around, then it's there for the taking. [/font]

The fans from other teams have expressed the same feeling.The players got to feel the same thing.Let's also look at Cleveland. Returning all their starters (except for the guy that bailed to Kingwood (or Atoscacita... whatever). Meanwhile HJ loses their leading scorer. That spells trouble for HJ, in the minds of the Cleveland players.

PoppaBearstarr Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 One thing I've learned about the Hawks is you dont read a book by it's cover. They always find a way to win.
Guest ktzlionsfan Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 [color=red]Not always, but they are good at pulling off what seems to be impossible (i.e. Kountze).[/color]
PoppaBearstarr Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 I should say usually find a way to win. Hawks by 7 ;D

I can see now what you meant. I was a little too quick to defend the HJ team and coaches (yeah, like they need me to defend them.).
PoppaBearstarr Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Well we still appreciate it tigersvoice... ;).
Guest baseball25 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Hj has one thing thats going to help them, and thats coach Sutherland and a great coaching staff on the bench, I think its going to be a very good game and HJ outcoaches the clevelend coach because cleveland has no discpline what so ever.
