Silsbee plays Athens around 6 followed by HJ Lavega at 8

I always try not to complain about the refs because I dont think you should credit them when you  lose.  However, since we won, I am going to complain a little.  There were 5 or 6 instances where players wound up laying on the floor for a minute or two because the referees, in my opinion permitted the game to be far too physical.  Shawn made a couple of fouls that were simply poor choices/decisions but also got a couple of ticky tacky reach in type calls while referees were allowing defenders to ride the offensive player with a forearm in the gut all the way down the court.  If the refs would have been a little less liberal with the physicality, a lot of those floored player situations would not have taken place.

The Silsbee/Athens game is first at 6:15... oh and one thing I wanted to know was how in the heck Navasota was unranked???

Considering what they achieved against Silsbee and HJ, they obviously deserved a ranking

Good freakin question....They will be really good next year with all they have coming back...That game tonight was a blazing fast pace....

Tech was called against #45 from Navasota.  He was not the only one from Navasota that deserved a Tech.  I saw first hand the classlessness from the Rattler fans.  As bad as I have seen in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time!!!!!

[ST413]

Thats the player that they thought.

I couldn't remember....and your right some of the fans were despicable...I'm glad the Hawks managed the game well enough to get the win...Props to coach Goodman on a great season, I had time to speak with him before the game, the coach is a good man....

[/quote]It needed to be at the Silsbee game for the Patrick Reed dunk that led to another quick turnover and easy layup which led to an immediate time out for Coldspring.  Off subject I know, but Silsbee doesn't get to talk about dunks very often.  ;D

[FanintheStands]

a special props goes out to the rest of the team, starting with our good young Mr. Bosha, for proving that Hardin Jefferson is NOT a one-trick pony!  The mark of a champion is that, even when your stud is not producing what he normally does, others step up to the plate!!!!

27 points!!!!  And Johnson, too!

That's got to be a scary thought. Stopping one just leads to another going off!!!

[/quote]Absolutely!  And Bosha didn't do it simply at the free throw line.  He made a couple of late shots to keep HJ up.

Great job 32 handling the ball in pressure situations, grinding on the boards, playing solid defense in foul trouble, being a leader on the floor and even chipped in a few points.  Your efforts are often lost in the numbers but I assure you the people that matter the most appreciate your efforts. Keep up the good fight, finish the race and be humble in the process.

Great job last night Joe and the gang. And for those that think you didn't do well, cheer up and just keep hustling and don't listen to your detractors!!

[stevenash]

If there is a detractor out there in regard to #32, I can only say that this was likely the first basketball game he had ever attended.  Hawks dont win without 32.

I actually worded the sentence wrong. I meant to say other players that thought that they, themselves played bad.

[PoppaBearstarr]

Cant wait until friday....Go Hawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to The Honorable Todd Sutherland & the rest of the his coaching staff for proving, yet again, that they are arguably one of the best staffs to ever coach in SE TX!!
