BADSANTA

Yeah they are usually pretty decent at baseball. Made it to the regional finals a few years ago.. usually go 2-3 rounds deep

Lol yeah you ain’t gotta worry about the sport of basketball in Bellville… For one weirdly we are region 4 in every sport but football (That will change next year as we will be region 3 across the board). Though Bellville has 6 playoff appearances since I’ve lived here (2015)… They have 0 playoff wins 😂

Payton Jones gives Braelon Bush vibes as a freshman. Once Johnson comes back, I dont think anyone in Region 3 can beat them. 

Halftime

Silsbee is up 113 to 58. Payton Jones is lighting it up from 3. My goodness!!!

You know it's bad when even the starters are out there free styling for portions of the game.
That and not playing defense 🤷‍♂️

Silsbee is up 113 to 58. Payton Jones is lighting it up from 3. My goodness!!!

That’s good news for sure!

No mention that Faith Family is moved ups to 5A?

I miss those years where it was HJ/Silsbee fighting it out for district every year and then competing to make it to state.  HJ has obviously dropped off some in the last 10 years or so, and Silsbee has gotten even better, but the whole landscape of 4A basketball is skewed due to all the houston teams in our region, combined with having to face the dallas teams if you make it to state.  

Jones hit about 8 threes.. Harris with 4 or 5 dunks and Rice with one 

Halftime
58-17 Silsbee
 
Jared Harris with 3 dunks in first half.

4 minutes 2nd
41-14 Silsbee

I’ll be there tonight and will provide updates for the varsity game. 

They got to get there first.

Hard to beat a team 3x in a year if they do meet up. 

Isn't Fort Bend Clements in the same region as well? Lots of Olajuwon dna on that team to deal with.
BU still has a good trio with Davis/Dotson/Payia. Lots of teams wish they had that. They still got a shot.

Allen?  You’d behave to play them again at the state tournament.  And FYI, we’ve already beaten them…

BU doesn't have three D1 players from the past 3 trips to state. That has alot to do with it as well. Its not like their replacing Porchia,  Arexeneaux, and Yates with 3 other D1 kids. Beaumont pipeline is loaded. BU will be fine. I predict they will make it to the 3rd round or Regionals this year. 6A isn't 5A. 

Considering the recent bond failure, I wouldn't look forward to anything like this in Silsbee anytime soon.
They need a new middle school first and foremost.

I just hope this snooze fest of a district doesn't have a negative impact on the Tigers come playoff time.

Silsbee wins it 100-54… Jones threw Harris a pretty sweet alley in the 4th.

United missed alot of 3s. I dont understand why they take so many jumpers when they can get the ball to the hole. 

Each dunk correlates to approximately a 10 point advantage. Thus the 49 point win. 

It was fun watching the BC student section.  They were a hoot.  The score was a matter of complete indifference to them.  Being behind 20 something to 80 something apparently was not a factor in their thinking.  They went nuts at every tiny little thing that went the Cardinals way.  The ref calling a jump ball was like VJ Day for them.  And there were a couple of times they cheered riotously for nothing at all, nothing at least that I could detect.

The adult 3/4 of the stands was a good deal more cognizant of what was actually happening on the court and a little less exultant about the whole thing.  With them it was more like, "Ouch" and "Yikes" and finally "Oh well'.  Silsbee knows the feeling all too well  and perhaps better remembering the Bellville game.  

If you've been though it there isn't much in this world that's more gratifying than winning a game on the road against a hostile crowd.  Usually though there's some little note of disappointment and maybe even a hint of embarrassment in the enemy camp when the score is so lopsided.  Not so here.  Watching the kid section you'd have thought that BC was 50 points ahead rather than 50 points behind.  No sir, they weren't going to let the fact that their guys were being run out of the gym spoil their fun.  If you could have gotten their attention and said, 'Guys, look at the scoreboard."  I'm sure their reply would have been something like, "Scoreboard?  I don't see any scoreboard.  What's a scoreboard?"  Or perhaps it was just a case of managing expectations.  If so it's one of the most impressive demonstrations of that science I've ever witnessed.

Today I'm sure that it's ancient history for them.  In the words of Ralphie, "In the jungles of kiddom, the mind switches gears rapidly."
