GoBigBlue1997 Posted November 17, 2012 Report Posted November 17, 2012 Must feel good to walk away with the 1st place trophy even though you got beat by a frosh team who deserved it. I think ya missed out on a great oppertunity to show some class and hand the trophy over, but hey, keep celebrating!

Coach English didnt want the freshman and JV teams to play each other in the championship, so WB (who the NED Frehman beat) played in their spot in the championship. NED freshman beat OF and finished the tournament 4-0. Freshman got the third place trophy while WB walked out with the First Place Trophy celebrating like they won the NBA Finals.

IMO the Westbrook coach missed a great opportunity to show some real class. TBH if i knew i lost to a very good freshman team and was only in the Championship game because Coach E didn't want both his teams playing each other, i would have given the trophy to the Freshman team and took home the 3rd place trophy. " But that's just me" I am curious of others thoughts on this!
asary Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 Props to a Ned Freshman team that played up in this JV tourney. Interesting stats: went undefeated 4 - 0; outscored their opponents by 146 points; average margin of victory 37 points. Congratulations!!
KF89 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 great job ned. freshmen way to earn the right to play for the championship only to have your hard work taken away from you by a decision that defeats the purpose of competing in sports to be the best & win.
BLUEDOVE3 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 Oh God, when this Nederland frosh group move up to varsity, this whole basketball forum will spread like a virus about those Ned. 2016 players ;)
mfd814 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 Congrats to Ned Freshman. The boys have to except their coaches decision not to play their JV, and the WB boys have to except that they lost to a freshman group and got in because of an adult decision . Can the adults of this forum except it ? They were excited they won a game, after losing to a freshman group earlier and they are young men. Shall we continue to bash them for an adult decision or be thankful they got to play one more game and work on skills?

Too many people think they know more than coaches know what is best for their program. I was not at the Champ game, but you can't blame a group of kids for being excited for winning a game. As long as they were not taunting our boys/fans, im okay with KIDS being excited. Even if Ned Fresh had not forfeited the game, WB JV would have played OF JV for the 3rd place game, so they would have played Saturday regardless.
understand Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 It appears someone is trying to say how good ned freshmans are they are good and the coach son on that team is good ,English and his dad English is a good coach he was a good coach at Vidor, but what you need to say if you are trying to say how WB jv should act remember KING 8th graders played your now 9th graders and beat them by 40 pts last year when you guys had said that they had never lost and also remember that Central beat your varsity last year with 3 freshmans playing and this year two of the 8th graders that beat your now freshmans or now varsity freshmans that were 8th graders on that King team and would beat your freshman 10 out of 10 times if they played freshman ball but they will see your varsity, and the other three starters that when to Ozen would beat your freshman 10 out of 10 times so up lift your freshman but dont forget.

I dont believe anyone is questioning the decision to let Westbrook play Ned JV in the championship game. IMO i think it was the right move and so does many other fans and parents, but if i were the WB JV coach (which i am not) i would have given up the 1st place trophy. Only because how i got to the championship game to begin with, by a decision made by adults. I don't blame the Westbrook boys of being happy, they won the game against a good Ned JV team.
