HJ vs. Jacksonville, Updates/ HJ wins 47-39!!

[bmrm]

HJ travels to Huntington tomorrow to face Jacksonville.  Heard that Jacksonville beat Mexia - which knocked HJ off at the regional tourney last year - by double digits earlier this year.  Does HJ's win streak come to an end?  If anyone is making this trip & able to do so, please post updates as I am unable to attend.   

[AggiesAreWe]

I will be attending this game. Will post updates.

No. Mexia got beat by Robinson in the 1st round. Had been playing basketball for a week when they played Jacksonvile. It was Mexia's second game of the season, Jacksonville's third.

[setxslam]

I'd love to go, but won't, out of fear the East Texas chapter of refs might finally do me in.
