BLUEDOVE3 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Read some notes on the this subject last night about the differences between Catholic and Public Schools in Texas. The writer was stating:*There is a big difference between the Public Schools and Catholic School in Texas.*For instance the Public Schools could only play 10 games,2 tournaments and one game per week. Compare to the Catholic Schools that can play up to 30 games,5 tournaments and 3 games a week.*Most parents that have a son playing basketball at a junior high do not know much about the Catholic Schools. Not only they would be playing more games but at the same time also getting a better education.*The exposure is greater because most Prep Catholic High School coaches attend the Junior High basketball tournaments looking for talent for their schools.

DP#1FAN Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Somebody needs to read TAPPS . You can play in 22 games and 2 tournaments or give up 2 games for every tournament added above 2. I think I am right on this I have slept since then. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljeicp08 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Strake Jesuit schedule (UIL Public school technically), a Catholic school that plays by public school rules because they are in the UIL, shows 22 games (19 played, 3 left), and two tournaments:http://www.strakejesuit.org/s/103/index.aspx?sid=103&gid=1&pgid=1023I'm positive SJ has maxed out their schedule, which is why they don't play St. Pius, Westbury Christian, Second Baptist, Beaumont Kelly and Dallas Jesuit every year. The only rivalry kept was St. Thomas.Now look at Houston St. Thomas' schedule (TAPPS school) - They played in 5 tournaments, and they have 19 games on the schedule.http://athletics.sths.org/basketball/schedule.phpNote: Both squads played in what's called the Texas Jamboree, where schools from across the state and nation are invited to participate in about 20 games in two or three days. These are just scheduled games, so one of SJ's 22 games was against a school from Alabama, and two of St. Thomas' scheduled 19 games were against Austin LBJ and Sam Houston. (Basically it's just a central location provided by the Jesuit campus to raise money)Hopefully the statistics and websites provided add some facts to the discussion.
