[quote name="the sports guy" post="1031815" timestamp="1312557003"] While working at SISD Ira continued to go to school and got his degree.  He has worked a full time job that requires around 70 hours a week.  Gone to school at night and summers.  Raised a family. And coached in a way that makes boys into men.   Who in their right mind can say they wouldnt want a person like that leading their child?  He set his goal and is working hard to get it.  Determination. If Silsbee hires an interum coach and gives Ira one year to get certified, I am ok with it.  If your not.....dont care....go sit on an egg. :D   [/quote] Ira Brooks is a class act!! he does not get the respect nor the credit he justly deserves from SISD school board!!  There is a place out there somewhere that will appreciate him for his knowledge of the game but, more importantly, for the impact he makes on the lives of the young men that he comes in contact with.  All sports could benefit from having more men or women like Coach Brooks!! Good luck, Coach Brooks and may God bless you!

#15 Henry (Sr catcher/Silsbee) does a pretty good job on the bases.. he has 20 out of 21 stolen bases....batting in the lead off spot for tigers

what a great atmosphere last night in Silsbee.   it was a great crowd.   good to see the people come out to support Tiger baseball.   yes there are a couple of talented underclassmen on the field for silsbee, however, the seniors are doing a great job this year!!    it is wonderful to see them having fun and enjoying the game of baseball again!   and winning!!!  congratulations to coach nelson, luna and kirby.... and to the players.....  

Caleb Henry-Silsbee  powerful arm, quick behind the plate, great leader on the team
