THS99

If only BH could keep their seniors one more year.

Well it doesn’t help that half of this district either didn’t keep stats or have decided to keep them hidden and off of Max Preps. Not that Max Preps is perfect, but besides seeing each team play in person, it’s the only tool available to gauge player performance and metrics. As for GCM, their pending predicament is really an issue with GCCISD, and Baytown, as a whole. Three high schools have diluted each athletic program to a point of perpetual mediocrity. Yeah, you might get occasional sparks, but nothing sustainable. GCM is about to be thrown to the wolves and be a doormat for the foreseeable future.

Agreed. The district's top awards didn't make sense, but neither did the team selections. My gripe about the OPOY going to GCM is that they also had the Setter of the Year and Coach of the Year. If you have the top two offensive awards and coach of the year, you shouldn't have to have a play-in game for 3rd/4th, you would expect a team with those attributes to be markedly better. Honestly, anyone who watched all these teams knows who had the top offensive and defensive players and which had the top coach. Congratulations to GCM, though, but if the snapshot numbers in the Football forum are valid, these could be the last big volleyball awards they see for a while.

BH also has more depth of talent than the other teams. The girls who were not on the starting six would be standouts on any other district teams.

Pretty much.

I'm dumbfounded by these selections, to be honest. How a team that steamrolls the district, whose only "bad" loss was to 6A Vandergrift, and made it to the Region Finals didn't dominate these awards is frankly embarrassing for this district. The 3rd and 4th place teams should not have more players with top district honors than the start to finish 1st place team. The district defensive player is an outside hitter??? Looks like a bunch of sour grapes to me.

Yep, Fulshear was a 6A, almost right after the last realignment. The most significant difference between the two offenses was that Fulshear was full steam ahead on swinging away; there was too much firepower from their outside hitters. Difficult for BH's defense to pick up all those missiles being fired at them. Overall, BH had a great run and beat outstanding teams in Foster, Friendswood, and College Station; not a bad showing.

BH and Sterling announced theirs on Twitter. Sterlings all-district selections are head-scratchers. Kinda crazy how a 4th place team had so many selections and overall top awards. Curious to see what GCM and Lee awarded themselves, I mean, were awarded.

Didn't help that the up ref in the match didn't seem to have a grasp of some of the basic rules of volleyball. That being said, Fulshear came to play and were hitting absolute bombs. Congrats to the Chargers on a good win and good luck at State. Congrats to the Eagles for a dominating district run and a great playoff run. Hopefully, realignment can work in their favor to get them moved to a new, more competitive district. More of the same, plus two more BISD schools, is not what the program needs to grow.

Very suspect offensive play calling by BH.

BH deserves to lose....wow

Or instead of two straight passes, just line up and run the damn ball.

Just a terrible red zone sequence for BH.

Is there a reason BH abandoned the run?
