They did not renew her contract. It is one of the dumbest things the administration at Vidor has done. Not only did she have the program headed in the right direction she was also a good coach. I enjoyed watching her coach.  >:(

I can't speak for all the kids but the majority of the kids liked Coach Arbuckle. So did her peers. She is a person you could not help but like. She just had that way about her. She is special. Good luck coach you are probably better off. Look at this way coach, maybe now you can go to a school where they(Administration) supports girls basketball and have a youth program.

Didn't the volleyball coach used to coach basketball? Is she a possibility or did they already hire someone?

Who even applied? I can't beleive this received no attention until now.  I thought their coach was doing really good with what she had to work with.

The kids I know from Vidor all seemed to like playing for Coach Arbuckle.  I always liked this coach, but gained even more respect for her 2 years ago.  Two seasons ago Vidor went through the entire district season without a win.  Vidors final district game of the year was against LCM.  Vidor was down by double digits late in the 4th and Coach Arbuckle was still about 8 feet out on the court (as she usually was) coaching, teaching, and pushing her girls to get better.  This season, if Vidor would have beaten LCM in the last district game...they would have forced a "play in" game for a playoff spot.  I feel like she was turning the corner for the Vidor girls program.  Sorry to see her go.

What sport does Vidor girls play?  I mean like little leagues, like Orangefield and Hardin-Jefferson have good Little Dribblers programs, LCM has volleyball, BC everyone plays softball..What do the Vidor girls do?

they have the upward basketball program for basketball. there is a very active softball league. there is a soccer league i think based in orange. for volleyball, they have some summer camps...not sure about anything else. vidor just added a swim team to the high school and they have a youth swim team for the younger kids.

The softball team has been hurting for a while now, basketball just this year started to win some games, volleyball got last in district I don't know about scoccer or swimming.

[/quote]your point?

My point was someone said soemthing about Jr. High sports, but it's hard to learn the game when you start in 7th grade, seems the little leagues they compete in aren't really teaching  fundamentals, a coach should always REVIEW that in practice, but it's hard to teach it at that age.

The youth soccer program is an organization run by Clint Brasher and Chad LaPray.  They have several different teams...boys and girls at different ages.  They all play out of Beaumont and/or tournaments.

[/quote]my bad...i thought it was out of orange. i know that the soccer org is run the right way and the kids get great teaching. i've never been involved, but i know vidor's soccer is definitely on the upswing.

wow...i got whacked/censored. i guess no more talk about the state of girls' junior high athletics in vidor. on a side note, whoever does get the job will have a definite stud/studette? player on his/her team. the richmond girl is the shiznizzle and was only a freshman this year. she can shoot the rock and run with anybody...great athlete.
