they have a very good team. only losses on the year are to 5a #12 Royce City by 9, 4A #5 Midlothian Heritage by 5, 6A Private Bishop Lynch by 13, and 6A San Angelo Central by 13. They have several solid wins this year, including that impressive 50-point win they just put up against a 34-4 Palestine. All that said, HJ has several wins over teams as good or better than the teams that have beaten La Vega. There aren't any common opponents this season, but playing connect the dots, HJ beat ranked 5A Red Oak by 13, Red Oak just beat Royse City by 8, and Royse City beat La Vega by 9. So HJ should win by 30 (just kidding). All things said, I'll take HJ by 15, but this is the first opponent they've played in almost two months that will be good enough to win if the hawks play badly, or if they get a few key players in foul trouble. HJ only beat La Vega by 7 last year, and this year's La Vega team is better, although the Hawks are a lot better than last year as well, IMO.

TC is shell-shocked. Dude said they rather drink hotdog water than play United. Lawd.

Yes. BU up 12-0 early.

Carthage has always had athletes. Carthage also played in the old 4A (5A now) for a long time. They moved down to a level that better suited their enrollment, got a great coach, and then won a title. 95% of the schools in Texas do not play with the athletes at their respective level that Cathage does. Very few schools have the facilities and resources Carthage does as well. Kudos to Surratt and staff though. It wasn’t always the case. He deserves everything he has got. But let’s not naively and ignorantly say that he could go to any school in the state and win a title in a 7 year period. It’s simply not true.

the announcer on NFHS/TexanLive calling the BU/Texas City game last night said he'd be doing the HJ game Friday, but it's not posted on the NFHS lineup yet.

You can always tell when you’ve got a liberal backed in a corner in a discussion, they start personal name calling. It’s the last refuge of someone who’s taken a position they’re unable to defend. Another “notch” on my iPad, lol. Thanks UT alum, you made my day.

New Waverly is good but Kountze can win this game. NW is not very deep. They have good length so rebounding will be an issue for Kountze. They have a couple of good shooters and prefer to play more of a half court game. If Kountze can apply pressure in the front court and get some turnovers and knock down some three's (NW will probably play zone), the Lions have a real good chance of winning this game.

This game starts at 7!

I saw where Coldspring won 100-50

Buna #0 is draining threes

If only there was a little bit of talent there.

They had a common opponent in Palo Duro (3-18). Hard to compare against a weak opponent dating back to December, but, La Vega won 64-39 and HJ won 66-21. of course, it’s one game at a time and they make you play them for a reason.

Many great guitarists. Saying who is “best” really comes down to style. One of my favorites after Page is Gary Moore. Some of his riffs just blow me away. Again, that’s just me.

Reagan, that's as absurd as the Trump / Russia collusion being made up. That's what you'll hear from the enlightened crowd.

Furr seems decent. Lets hope we shoot the 3 ball a little better than last game.

Not to mention a ref could slip. Some of the ones I’ve seen in our area look to have “vulnerable hips” as well…

That guy is hilarious. His bit on second hand smoke cracks me up.

I expected us to win this one but the way Buns plays defense it will be tough so I expect a low scoring affair from both teams

Yes now get ready for The Buna Cougars!!!

Great job Trojans

I don’t think we can ignore the conditioning and development program a coach puts in place. That is, would Carthage have the same level of prospects without the coach helping get them there?

Yes @AggiesAreWeyour exactly correct. We lost to New Waverly by 14. One of the games we have multiple players out with Covid. Also, our big man down low is out for the season with an injury from football! Thanks for all your knowledge & sharing of information

I've seen NW and all the teams in their district. No team in their district really applies full court pressure on a regular basis like Kountze does so they will have to make some adjustments. Nobody said their guard play wasn't good enough but in all my years of watching high school basketball, I have seen many a ranked team succumb to pressure. BTW, rankings can be very subjective.

I can’t wait to hear “Toby”

EXACTLY!

I’ve said it before, but it really is scary how the overwhelming majority just acquiesced their freedoms to government control. Wear a mask - sure! Stay home - sure! Take a shot that doesn’t provide protection - sure! Require papers to sit down at a restaurant or travel in our free country - “Well gee the govt said it was best” - sure! Shut down small businesses and take away families livelihood - sure! But I’m the crazy one…..ummmm, okay.

Kountze always has a shot when they are in the playoffs

Crosby has nothing to protest they were over the cutoff.....you can only ask to move to a different district, not classification....unless there's a big screw-up somewhere...I dont recall this Lumberton protest to move back to 4A

BU DUNKED BETTER THAN THE GUYS IN THE NBA DUNK SATURDAY NIGHT!🤣🤣

Sounds like may have been addition by subtraction…

I think it’s more of a positional thing. Lamar had plenty of sub 6 foot 2-guards this year. Doesn’t work real well at that level. Brooks likes his PGs distributing the ball. He needs to go find some. To be honest this year, Adams was light years ahead of ALL the other guards at doing this. And he is actually a 2 who has the size to play and defend the position.

La Vega beats Palestine 90-39. HJ to face La Vega Friday, 7:30, Lufkin ISD Multipurpose Center

It's not just coverage. it is that big city teams can do what they want. They collude during off season. Transfer protocol is much easier than it has ever been. A coach can put together a state team in no time. You let some 6'8" wing men with a jumpers show up in Silsbee & see what happens.

5:07 50-30 LCM

41-24 Diboll up at halftime

no that is not sutherlands strategy lol he wants to apply pressure and force the opposing team to commit turnovers not put them on the freethrow line🤣

Final: Center 60 CS 32

Sorry about that. Good luck kountze

Hamshire started the game out 17-3

Good grief

Texas City - 2 United - 24 End of the 1st Period

18-6 Buna after one.

CE King gym nice.

I’m here. Will update

Silsbee has beaten HISD schools many times. They beat Sheldon ISD (channel view, summerset, CE King, BT Washington?) Cy Fair ISD teams, Brazosporrt teams. Still no respect. A lot of BT Washington players transferred from CE King, and Humble. That's why they put homeboy on talking about his family are alumni. Slick.

All jokes aside, the process of picking a supreme court justice based solely on their skin color violates the Constitution. Just read through the 14th Amendment to determine if anybody other than a black woman is having their "equal protection under the law" violated by this process. Because they are.

Final 61-57 West Hardin

Not my type music but I didn't think it was bad. Not the best ever though like some are saying. IMO, Prince's performance was the best ever.
