Final! 63-46 Titans advance to the regional tournament!

I think Clay had a great game plan. No three point shooting (only attempted 5 the whole game) and attacking the basket. The 24 turnovers were their downfall. Silsbee getting that double digit lead in 2nd half then spreading the floor and isolating Harris and Miller, putting the ball in their hands exclusively, was a great move. Silsbee did not shoot the ball very well (5/19 three, 14/24 FT) but their defensive adjustment after the 1st quarter was big. HJ scored single digits in 2nd and 3rd quarters (8,9). I had a good feeling that HJ would play Silsbee really tough in this one. It's just that Silsbee is better and they have two super stars in Harris and Miller along with some very complimentary support. HJ just doesn't have that go to guard but they play so well as a team.

And Titans

Dotson has been solid for three years, but he’s been playing the best basketball of his high school career during these playoffs.

Great season bobcats!!!

OF - 27 Hitchcock - 26 end of 3rd

OF - 21 Hitchcock - 18 5:30 in the third

The Hawks had the perfect game plan in this one. I had said in an earlier post to keep the game in the 50-60 point range and control the tempo to give themselves a shot, which they did. I think they won the battle of the boards. At the end of the day the 24 turnovers were the difference in this one and that’s a credit to Silsbee’s 3/4 court defense. Gotta tip your cap to both coaches last night. Clay did everything he could to give his group a chance and Sigler spreading the floor at the 5:00 minute mark of the 4th cemented the win. Good ballgame, great season Hawks and Good luck Tigers!!

One thing that impresses me with this team than the previous two is how well BU has been on the defensive end this year! I thought the past two years that side of the ball was very hard to watch a lot of times, however it seems they’ve flipped a switch this year.

Dunk count was 1-0 btw ! 🤣

Ragusa for MAYOR!!! 💪🏼❤️🏀

First i want to tip my hat to the OF coaching staff they did an amazing job this year, congrats to all the players but more importantly Pete Ragusa you had a spectacular season and career , keep your head up ,the next chapter of your life is coming ,we’ll see you in college !!!!!

Bad free throw shooting game, yea, but we usually shoot free throws good.

Great win refocus for Friday. Great Season Westbrook.

I don’t think you’re wrong.

He was the MVP of the state championship game last year imo

Furr beat Connally 68 - 43.

They don’t know what a foul is either.

OF - 14 Hitchcock - 10 5:00 left in the second

Yes

Jackson and Bottley played just as well for Silsbee as anyone. I think HJ did a decent job keeping Miller and Harris in check.

A haw, haw, haw, haw

This is you right? Seem to be very active in the stolen election topic. But maybe that’s fake news too 🙄🙄🤡🤡

Was just a fantastic season for the Bobcats. They tied the deepest playoff run and were one win off tying the record for wins in a season (playing one less game than the team who has said record). I think if OF stays 3A, they will surpass both of those records in the next few years. I don’t think they will be quite as good next year with what they lost but the next two after that could be special. And they have some really good athletes in Jr High right now winning district championships. I would say the future is bright for Coach McDonald and company.

Stubbs...😋

No we lost 46-42. They scored with 17 secs left. We missed our next shot and fouled with 1.5secs left but he made both free throws.

Rebounding was a problem. I think we did pretty well other wise.

FT shooting needs a tweak.

11-2. Lamar moves to 9-0. Take on the Penn Quaker from the Ivy League in a 3 game set this weekend.

You would have made big bank on this one if you betted.

Great game by the Hawks…Not anything to take away from the way HJ played but from the games I have been able to see online or in person in the playoffs, the Tigers just arent quite playing like they are capable of. Just dont seem to be able to get on that roll yet. Hopefully we get there now because its going to take a lot more from here on out.

💰💰💰

thanks

🤣🤣🤣 You stirring up some memories when I used to stay in Beaumont working and walking down that road.

It's been pretty nice playing only other small town teams so far. That's over though. Going to have to play even better to make it to state. I do like the way we played defense tonight.

They don't even know what a push off is lol

BU on a run right now. Up 14 currently 44-30 late 3rd

25-24 Titans Halftime

Great season for LCM!!

OF - 8 Hitchcock - 6 2 left in the first

Christening my new tablet tonight, I'm tuned in. Nice crowd filing in, probably more ppl than a LU game already in the building.

Yessir

Dropped from 2a to 1a ?? Don’t know if that had much to do with it. I think they have a really good coach though.

That actually brings me to another thought. With coaching/teaching being a govt job, should all hires be open to the public?

I think many of the arguments against the EVs are that the technology is being forced upon us in the name of climate change and heavily subsidized by the federal government. Let the private sector drive the effort, not politicians that are making a killing by ramping up the so called green energy industry. I would much rather the likes of Elon Musk set the pace rather than politicians.

In a vacuum Coach Mitchell out coaches Coach Davis every day of the week.
