Bear Cave

HF 61, LCM 39. Bears led by Jesse Doucette with 17 and Jackson Smith 13. Definitely not how we wanted or anticipated this game going, but hats off to Hamshire Fannett. You won't ever hear any excuses here. Thanks to our players (especially the seniors), parents, and fans for their unconditional support and we're already looking forward to next year. The future is bright.

Silsbee 75, LCM 60. Jesse Doucette scored 23, freshman Da'Marion Morris 12, and Jackson Smith 11. Felt like we did a pretty good job with Bush...and he still had 30. We go to Hamshire Fannett on Tuesday. Win and we're in. Lose and go home. Should be a fun one.

LCM 63, West Orange Stark 41 Bears finally put together a good offensive performance for Senior Night. Jesse Doucette had 22, Ben Elliott scored 13, and Jackson Smith had 12. We're now 5-5 in district with Silsbee and Hamshire-Fanett left to go.

Lumberton 51, LCM 50. Bears led by Jackson Smith with 16, Jesse Doucette 12. Bears fall to 15-14 (4-4). We'll be at Bridge City on Friday.

Joubert can flat out coach. He's about as good as it gets.

We missed 12 free throws and that is a killer. Also had some really bad turnovers that resulted in easy Hardin Jefferson layups. Gotta give credit to HJ on that, though. If we want to get in the playoffs and do anything, that stuff has to get cleaned up. I agree that the HJ student section was really good. That stuff makes for a great atmosphere and the games are so much more fun. Hoping that our group will answer the bell for our Tuesday game with Lumberton.

HJ 67, LCM 50. The lead was at 5 going into the final quarter, but we ran out of gas and couldn't buy a bucket late. Jesse Doucette had 24 and freshman Ben Elliott had 14. Baxter Wirth scored 23. HJ is a solid two or three deep at every position and could really make some noise in the playoffs.

LCM 38, Hamshire Fannett 34. Bears led by Jesse Doucette with 16 and Jackson Smith had 6 points and drew a HUGE charge at the end of the game. We need to play better, but this group has figured out how to win close games. Bears finish the first half of district at 4-2. We go to HJ on Tuesday.

Silsbee 90, LCM 60. Led by Jesse Doucette with 21 and Ben Elliott with 16. We got thumped tonight and have to get better. Huge game Friday at home vs Hamshire Fannett. Don't have the complete statline for Silsbee, but Bush had what seemed like a quiet, easy 26. Some college is going to get a steal.

LCM 45, WOS 44 We were led be Jesse Doucette with 19 and freshman Ben Elliott with 13. We were very fortunate to come away with a win tonight and need to play better. Bears will host Silsbee on Tuesday as we do our 2nd Coaches vs Cancer Benefit.

Bears jumped out to a 26-13 lead at the half, but really struggled in the 3rd. Bridge City tied this one up with about two to go before LCM closed it out with a little run. Final score 52-46. Jackson Smith had a double double with 18 pts and 10 rebounds and Scout Denman scored all 9 of his clutch points in the 4th. LCM (2-1) will go to WOS on Friday.

LCM 50, Lumberton 45. Bears led by Jesse Doucette with 22 and 7 boards and Jackson Smith with 9 points and the go ahead bucket with 27 seconds left. We'll be celebrating Hawaiian Shirt Night on Tuesday as we host Bridge City. If you like a good student section and game day atmosphere, this is a game you want to come to.

HJ 79, LCM 50. LCM: 14, 7, 20, 9 HJ: 16, 18, 18, 27 Bears led by Jesse Doucette with 24 and Ben Elliott 11. RJ Sears 18 for the Hawks. LCM 10-12 (0-1) will be off Tuesday and will go to Lumberton next Friday.

They weren't necessarily part of the tournament, but we had some open time slots and those guys deserved some games. PA won freshmen game by about 25 and the JV game by 11.
