The Evadale Rebels will take on the  Thorndale Bulldogs in the regional quarter-final round.  Thorndale is the district 27-2A champion, and was ranked 3rd in the last THSB poll.  There are no common opponents.  All three games will be at Reckling Park on the campus of Rice University.  Game 1 will be Friday at 7:30 PM, game 2 on Saturday at 3.  Game 3 (if needed) will follow 30 minutes after the conclusion of game 2.  Go Rebs!!!!

Best of luck to Evadale but I'm taking Thorndale 

In no way do you have to answer, just curious why you have Thorndale?  Do you have some knowledge about their team that leads you to believe they have it?  Again, just curious about the pick. The boys are playing well, and relish the underdog status.  I know they're going to put the work in this week, and Coach Williams & Luna will have them ready.

Found this interesting from the THSB pre-season forecasts:

Region IV Top 10 2A Teams
1. Weimar – 9 starters return from a 16-8 Area Finalist Team
2. Refugio – 6 starters return from 26-3 Regional Semi-Finalist Team
3. Thorndale – 8 players return from a 22-8-1 Regional Quarter-Finalist Team
4. Evadale – 6 Players return from 19-6 Area Finalist Team
5. Center Point – 8 players return from 19-7 Regional Quarter-Finalist Team
6. Charlotte – 7 players return from 21-5 Area Finalist Team
7. Flatonia – 5 players return from 29-6 State Champion Team
8. Big Sandy – 4 Starters return from a 28-7-1 Regional Finalist Team
9. Burton – 8 teams return from 13-11 Bi-District Finalist Team
10. Harper – 5 starters return from 17-8-1 Area Finalist team.

 

Into the Regional Quarter-Final Round, there are eight (8) teams remaining.  THSB did a pretty good job on their pre-season predictions:

Refugio - #1 (THSBCA) / #2 (THSB)

Thorndale - #3 (THSB)

Big Sandy - #4 (THSBCA) / #6 (THSB)

Evadale - #14 (THSB)

Center Point

Flatonia

The only two (2) not predicted, but still in it were:

Mason

Ozona

I just went back and looked at THSB & THSBCA and neither one of them have Thorndale ranked in the top 10 as of their last polls. I've looked at who they have played and I believe they have had a district like our Rebels! So they are probably about even with us! I would like to find out more about their pitching though!

Look at their runs allowed and that gives a pretty good indication of pitching and defense.

Haven't talked to the coach specifically - but I'm guessing we're staying with our regular rotation.  Daniel - game 1 / Parker - game 2, and Alex & Tyler in relief and on stand-by for game 3.  But you never know - Coach Williams could always throw a curve and switch things up.

      Boutte Retires - West Brook Hires Mike Thomas

      By Coach_Izzy · Posted

      Really good hire! As I stated previously on this thread, Mike T has been an essential part of WB’s success the last few years & is a student of the game & I have a ton of respect for how he goes about things as a coach. Big on teaching kids how to do things the right way to prepare them for not only basketball but the game of life. He’ll be fine there, my only question is what kind of talent does WB have returning?  Best thing about this situation for Mike T is WB will be 5A for at least the next 2 years, so he should win a lot of games & have some deep playoff runs.

      US Supreme Court case from southeast Texas

      By tvc184 · Posted

      A Winnie land owner (and others) sued the State of Texas after they built IH-10 a few feet higher in order to help contain storm flooding. Sure enough a hurricane hit and flooded the land. The storm improvements worked!! Unfortunately the state sacrificed several people’s properties in using the interstate highway as a dam.  Richard DeVillier tried to sue Texas under our laws and Constitution and the US Constitution under the Fifth Amendment “taking clause” (eminent domain). After a favorable ruling in the federal district court on the right to sue Texas directly, the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans overturned that ruling and said that the DeVlier had no authority to sue Texas directly.  On Tuesday a unanimous US Supreme Court ruled that DeVillier and others had the right to sue Texas directly under Texas law and under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution. The case is now sent back down to the lower court. DeVillier and others have not won their lawsuits as the case has not been decided on its merits at a trial. He still has to go to prove his case. What they did win was a unanimous Supreme Court agreeing that he has the right to bring Texas to trial for taking his property with just compensation.
