Cayuga led by 4 with 40 seconds left....

Unfortunately no broadcast. Still looking

While New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin is making headlines across the country, a player from Kountze with a similar-sounding name has helped his team reach the regional semifinals. Laramie Linn, a 5-foot-10 senior shooting guard, is the leading scorer for the Kountze basketball team, who has reached the regional semifinals for the first time since 2007.

After four years without making it to the regional tournament, Kountze fans were starting to get antsy. There's no such thing as a rebuilding period in Kountze, a school that has won four state championships in basketball. Read more: [Hidden Content]

[quote name="SHS_Mayor" post="1190356" timestamp="1330703893"] Grades go in today , Nobody will become ineligable until next Friday at 3:30 [/quote] Hmm.... Maybe Joubert is making the best decision for his team.

[quote name="utfan06" post="1190354" timestamp="1330703719"] Maz didn't play much against Crockett ... [/quote] ;) There you go. He actually hasn't played much in the past month. I noticed that against Deweyville. Maybe Joubert knew his grades were suffering and decreased his minutes so the team would learn to play without him. Makes sense to me.

This game will be broadcasted via KMOO 99.9 radio out of Mineola. Download the Tune-In app for your mobile phone if you can't access it via the web. Web link is working. Go to [Hidden Content] and click on the "Listen Live" link around 4:30 tomorrow.

Grades were released today.  :-X ;)

Gotta wonder. [/quote] Why don't you tell us?  ;) From what I've heard, the cupboard is VERY full for years to come in Kountze.  ;) [/quote] I am hearing that "diaper dandy" you speak of on another board will be attending another school and not Kountze. Word is he will be enrolling before this school year is complete. But, I'll believe it when I see it. ;) [/quote] Trolling, I see.  ;D ;D Seriously doubt it will happen. I mean, what's the advantage? He's already getting exposure on the AAU circuit.  ;)

We've [b]NEVER [/b] lost the Semi-final game at Regionals. Gotta keep that streak going on Friday! Kountze loss to eventual state champ Sweeny in 1987 in regional semi-finals [/quote] Ahhh... proves me wrong.

Just read where the games have been pushed back two hours on Friday. Kountze will now play at 5 pm, followed by White Oak/Woden at 7 pm.

[quote name="stevenash" post="1189035" timestamp="1330548110"] I dont look at this stuff very often but it appears as though now that we have gotten to the playoffs, the overall predicitive capabilities appear to have declined. [/quote] I also think it has something to do with some of the teams on there being teams we're unfamiliar with.

[quote name="utfan06" post="1189003" timestamp="1330546523"] Khs will you be in attendence? [/quote] Unfortunately, no. I live out of state. Looking forward to the updates.

[quote name="bball2011" post="1188677" timestamp="1330526630"] It looks like that Edgewood played Central Heights and Whiteoak CH 48 vs Edgewood 31 Whiteoak 65 vs Edgewood 53 That was early in the season and Edgewood may have improved...like Kountze... [/quote] They were also without their best player, but the way the Lions have been playing lately I don't think it will matter.

Tradition brings along certain EXPECTATIONS. I think peaking at the right time in your season helps also.

[quote name="utfan06" post="1188614" timestamp="1330523745"] I think we played them in the teneha tournament ... but the way we are playing right now we can beat them.. [u][b]how bout those unranked [/b] [/u] lions!!! [/quote] Seriously?  :D :D Everytime the rankings came out starting in January I looked at them with smirk on my face. Right now, we could argue that we're better than the majority on the teams on that list. I could care less about the rankings because the UIL doesn't use them for anything since seeding is based on district play.

;D ;D Glad to join you guys again. Lol!

Welcome back Kountze Lions! I've been missing you! Signed, The Regional Tournament  :D :D

Congrats Lions!!! Congrats!

T minus 5 hours...  ;D ;D ;D

Still don't know if that should have counted. 3.32 seconds left. If you start counting as soon as the ball is in that's almost 4 seconds....
