[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1152242" timestamp="1325209043"] Why? It would have been tough for Silsbee to play after a long travel back, [/quote] Well, think about it. Had Silsbee made the finals tonight, that game would not have been over till 10pm. You cannot ask a team to travel back home on a yellow dog for 6 1/2 hours, arriving in Silsbee at about 4-5am, then play a game scheduled for 2pm that day. It was just best to cancel the game ahead of time.

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1152225" timestamp="1325207520"] Higtower will be the force alongside North shore in region 3! [/quote] I'll take Fort Bend Travis over the both of those two. ;)

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1152220" timestamp="1325206696"] They should beat Navasota, Evadale, and West Brook. [/quote] West Brook game for tomorrow has been canceled.

Silsbee has been hurt one time by one big post player this season (last night as Rider's '6"8 post scored 34). Silsbee has played other teams this season with big players (HCYA's Knowles, '6"10, scored just 8 points in a loss to Silsbee) and they have done okay. Silsbee's lack of size has hurt them in some games, but they have made up for it with their speed and quickness. [/quote]I was talking past history. [/quote] I think Silsbee has handled bigs in the past just as well as HJ and Cleveland.

Tigers were hurt depth wise in this game after Holmes and Reed fouled out plus not having Kelton Gaines playing. (Coach decision not to suit Gaines out for this game) Silsbee had their chances and really come away from this tourney having to feel they let this tourney title get away from them. IMO, Silsbee was as good as any team here, just didn't close the two games out when they had the opportunities.

I'll be there tomorrow for the Consolation, 3rd place and championship games. Will leave Sherman in the morning and stop by to check these games out on the way home.

Silsbee will be fine.

[quote name="tamulonghorn" post="1151927" timestamp="1325176530"] because they are going back to boys and girls at opposite sites so when they did the schedule they kept it the same as last year [/quote] Ok

end of 1st Semifinals Wichita Falls Rider    10 Austin Hyde Park      6

[quote name="WOSgrad" post="1151761" timestamp="1325133692"] We now have the lineup for tomorrow: 7th Place - San Antonio Southwest vs. Spring Woods, 10:30 a.m. [b]Consolation - Sherman vs. Denison, 12:00 p.m.[/b] Semi #1, Wichita Falls Rider vs. Austin Hyde Park, 10:30 a.m. Semi #2, Silsbee vs. McKinney North, 12:00 p.m. [/quote] Change to today's schedule: The consolation game between host Sherman and Denison has been canceled. Both teams are in the same district and chose not to play this game. Was told AD's got involved in this decision. Question, wonder if these two teams were playing in the semifinals or championship would they play the game. ;)

Question, why is the first game in Silsbee? Shouldn't the district schedule be opposite of what it was last year? The first game last year was at Silsbee.

Two scores from pool play last night: McKinney North      66 Sherman              57 Denison                53 SA Southwest      44

First semifinal coming up at 10:30am. Pool B #1 seed Wichita Falls Rider vs. Pool A #2 seed Austin Hyde Park

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1151855" timestamp="1325169915"] This will be a difficult matchup for the Tigers. Good Luck! [/quote] McKinney North has a '6"9 post but he is not as skilled as the '6"8 post that Silsbee faced last night. He will still cause some match up problems due to his length. I think Silsbee can win this game but they will need to be able to go to the free throw line more than just 3 times. ;)
