Wanted to send a congrats out to the Warriors for their win.  We also want to express our sincere gratitude for the concern and words of encouragement shown to us by Warren players as well as their parents. Very classy team! We are very proud of our Colby and we look forward to seeing him back on that Kountze mound and at Lamar! He is doing very well today!  Again, congrats to Warren and thank you for your kindness!  - Colby Price's parents

[quote name="jhizzle" post="1198657" timestamp="1332001060"] They didn't throw Price because if Buna beats them with their best stuff on the mound, Kountze wont have a leg to stand on. Since we won last night, now they can say, "Oh, we didnt throw Price. It would have been wayyyy different." No different than any other year Lions. Alot more smack talk from Warren and Kountze fans and two more L's to add to both your columns after we played yall this week. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE [/quote]   ::) I honestly don't think anyone from Kountze is thinking that.  In fact, no one from Kountze has mentioned Price on here.  But…since you mentioned it...I do recall us beating you last year with Price on the mound!  ;D ;D I'm sure every team is going to face a few tough losses this year in this district; even Buna!  Listen, I will be the first to say that Buna is the team to beat!  I have no problem giving credit where it is due, but, you have to admit that it was a good game.  Win or lose, it's always fun and exciting to play you guys and I look forward to every match up.  We'll see you next round…and who knows, maybe Price will get his shot!  But even if he is on the mound, we would never be arrogant enough to say that it will be a for sure win…he is obviously talented, but, he isn't, nor has he ever been the TEAM! Best of luck to both teams!! 

Colby Price is a Sr.

Congrats to Colby Price on signing with Lamar!  The hard work has paid off.

Kountze won in five

Kountze came back and won the best 3 out of 5.  The Lionettes will also be playing in the Evadale tournament championship today, against Buna (I'm almost certain), at 2:00. 

I've heard good things about this guy!  Looking forward to seeing what he does with our program.  There really is some good talent in Kountze right now.

Congrats to the Pirates on their win.  It was a great game to watch.  Howell did a great job.  Price, you did your job very well last night!  Keep your head up and get back in the battle. 

haha. Well said.

Not sure.  Like I said, it may not have been a factor.  He just didn't look like himself though.  He could have just been having a bad outing.  Happens sometimes.

Warren just simply beat Kountze on every level. Our boys didn't show up for this one. So, congrats to Warren, you guys really did look good!!  Classy team.  As for Price, definitely not his best outing. He didn't look like himself.  He strained his back in Anahuac and was still nursing that up to the day of the game.  Not sure if that came into play.  Either way, one bad outting doesn't undo his year or his ability.  Keep your head up kid, you're not done...57 K's in 5 five games, doesn't happen for those who have nothing to bring to the table.  Everyone has a bad day on the mound once in a while.  ;)
