Who Is Your Most Improved Team This Year?

Who is the Most Improved Team This Year?  Each Classification

[Dick Vitale]

3A - Hamshire Fannett
4A - Beaumont Central
5A - PA Memorial

[86hawk]

IMO, in any classification, i would say HF.  Change coaches during the season, make the playoffs, and win in round 1?? What other team has done that or made a bigger turn around?

[HJ2012]

Oh, Hamshire Fannett definitely as far as 3A goes. To knock of West Orange in the manner they did, and then the thrashing of Cleveland (who, just last year, played HJ in a really close game in Baytown) just shows that they have come a long way. And, I really am pulling for HF to beat Navasota. I think that would be awesome for HF to go to Regionals after all of the adversity they had to overcome this season. Go Horns!

In order for Hamshire-Fannett to go to regionals they would not only have to beat Navasota, but also beat the winner of HJ and Sealy. ;)

I consider the Regional Quarterfinals to be Regionals. They may not be playing in Huntsville, but the banner would still say REGIONAL Quarterfinalist.  ;)

Then why does the UIL Bracket say Regional Quarterfinals instead of Regional Bi-district round?  ::)

Regardless, HF is the most improved team by far. I still remember the thread, "HF Coach DeCello out." To have not made the playoffs in a LONG time, and then to have the beginning of the season they did, well, that tells you something about this team. Good luck Horns. I hope to see you in the REGIONAL QUARTERFINALS game.

When you define a good coach, wouldn't one of the qualities be that he is capable of attaining his objectives while conforming to school policy?

[horndawg]

My mistake, had my numbers screwed up. But I agree his mentality helped change things for the better out in hamshire.
