stevenash Posted December 9, 2012 Report Posted December 9, 2012 Somebody told me that HCYA is some sort of home schooling school. If that is even close to correct, could someone who understands it relate to me how this school exists and from whence do their players originate?

Your or me could get our kids there to practice. But, you will find many of thee kids have been held back to hone their skills.

team first Posted December 9, 2012 Report Posted December 9, 2012 No blue they are asking about hcya not the beaumont system
Honest Abe Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1352544" timestamp="1355079414"]I still say the best team in the tourney was The Village, and Memorial beat those guys.HCYA played very well against PAM, the Titans did not play well at all. They had no answer for HCYA's star Justin Jackson. He had 19 points, 15 boards, and 9 block shots.[/quote]Village was definitely the best team at the tourney. Coach Williams and Roberson had a great game plan which worked, and that's why they beat them IMO. They slowed the pace of the game which frustrated their PG stud #11. Ned led HCYA for most of their game until the end when we couldn't buy a bucket. 3 points in Q4 not going to win many. JJ played well against us, but J Jackson turned it up a notch against PAM. He only had 1-2 blocks against us bc Weisbrod was able to go by Jackson with his quickness and ability to put the ball on the floor. Colton had 20 of our 40 points. We played like we did against WB 2 weeks ago when we lost in OT. Just couldn't make outside shots. Memorial players tried to shoot over him. That's why he had 9 blocks. Had The Village gotten past PAM, I believe they would have won the tourney over HCYA.

whsalum Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 I know the scoring didn't have anything to do with coaching, Travis does a great job. I know HYCA is a good club with a sensational recruit but 27 points isn't gonna win ya many.It just seems to me like the area big schools struggle to put points on the board.

She said that they would work on shooting and other skills on their own. The practices involved team strategy. She made if VERY clear that basketball is not even close to first in their program.

I find the teacher's explanation a bit "Hole-y."

Now that I think about it, that was a memorial's lowest point total thus far.. Every team has it's off games, even your Silsbee's and your H-J's. So, your comment still remains a head scratcher to me. Teams, small or big struggle to score points sometimes. That's all I'm saying.
BLUEDOVE3 Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Justin Jackson plays with the Houston Hoops. The Hoops do not start practice until March 2013. TJ Rhoades played with Texas Pro and they have the same schedule. Many of these guys meet on the weekend and play each other, usually on Sundays for about 2 hours.
