** 3A #8 Silsbee vs. 3A #3 Kennedale Updates**/Kennedale wins 87-84

[ST413]

Hopefully these two losses will refocus this team on playing as a team and doing the little things that lead to wins.

[KHSAlum400]

Even in a loss this is a good showing by Silsbee. Back-to-back losses will definitely make them more hungrier in the playoffs. Good luck! Lets make this the 1st time Silsbee and Kountze go to the State Tournament together. Meet us there!

You have to respect Yates for putting in their due diligence by scouting potential opponents.  Obviously they're not taking the 3A playoffs lightly, which makes them even more formidable to other teams.

[ST413]

Kountzer,  Yates did scout these two when they played last week but Dove didn't see them at the Silsbee-Kennedale game.

[BLUEDOVE3]

Of course Yates is scouting their potential opponents. They don't just roll out the ball and play 

[ST413]

But they should never have to scout lowly 3a teams!

[Kountzer]

That's the usual impression, athletic, urban teams just roll the ball out, and play with not discipline, or very little.  Although Coach Gamble at PA Lincoln won a championship or two by taking the air out of the ball.  Coach Wise is not taking the 3A championship for granted. 

This whole thing could come down to Yates vs. Stephenville or Argyle in the Finals or semi finals.
