BS isn't gonna be in the EC tourney this year? If not I hate that because that's usually where I get to see them after they have been on the floor awhile.Evadale wasn't bad this summer True but they didn't look like a taem with the potential to go real deep.They will be real well coached and will win the games their supposed to win.On the 2-a level they don't match up well with Kountze,Anahuac or EC.Nobody beats Big Sandy at home and while it won't be a district match up any longer Spurger will be the class of the 1-a clubs locally.From my observations this summer Persohn from HJ was the most improved player I saw on any of the clubs.People that didn't see him this summer are gonna be surprised.

[quote name="ECBucsMom" post="865380" timestamp="1286164092"] The Buc players, coaches and fans had a tough time traveling to Newton for this game.  We realize and recognize that the Newton community is suffering.  Of course we wanted the win, but many of us would have been just fine with a loss to Newton right now.  Our coaches and players did what they felt Coach Barbay would have expected and that was to show up to play his team, just like had he been there.  It would have been disrespectful to him and to his team to show up with any less than our best.  No one at EC is rubbing in the win as someone suggested earlier.  In fact, it is rather bitter sweet.  No matter what, we will never get the credit for the win as many of you have already made clear.  We can't help the circumstances.  I am proud to be from East Chambers and am proud of the way our players, cheerleaders, drill team and our band represented our community at this game.  The band playing Amazing Grace to honor Coach Barbay was heartfelt. Our sincerest condolances to the Newton players, coaches, fans and to Coach Barbay's family.  [/quote]Now that's about as classy a post as I've ever read on this forum.I tip my cap to you maam.

You gotta admit though since Alvarez got there they been pretty darn good.

I think the kids name from HJ is Persohn.He was a JV player last year but was the most improved player I saw this summer.It looked like the lights came on for this kid, he will be one you will here from this season.

The Huntington tourney is always great if the food is any better than Big Rich puts out at HJ you'd have to have a golf cart to get back to the car.

That's a catch 22 for the Rebs.The HJ tourney always has a very good overall field but can be tough on a teams confidence if they aren't real strong.I 've watched it for years and a lot of the clubs use it to find depth because they play a ton of games.They may see Big Sandy in the EC tourney because they are usually in that one.

If I knew him I'd lease him a house LOL!!!!!!!

Evadale should make the playoffs in this district with the departure of Spurger and SP graduating a lot of folks.Big Sandy will probably be the favorite.Evadale played an up tempo game this summer without the big kid and I know Coach Williams likes to play an up tempo game.I think the district will be down a little overall this season.

The kids that Warren have playing give it all they got but they are going to have to get more upper classmen on the field in every sport if they are gonna turn things around.When you suit 18 players in a 2-a district and most of your skill players are under classmen you are gonna have a hard time being successful.Hopefully the numbers will improve and if they do the team will do the same.

I'm gonna have to get a program to keep up with him  ;D

Coach Williams will do a great job at Evadale.His style will be dictated by the type players he has.Evadale looked good in the Kountze league this summer. I don't know who they have in their district so I can't say if they will win it or not.They have some pretty athletic players but I don't know if they will have the true basketball players to make a deep run.I didn't see anyone close to 6'7" for them this summer.

Anahuac by a bundle.

Kountze's system will help them be successful year in and year out.McDaniel and the blonde headed kid that shoots the 3 will be their go to guys.I see them in a dogfight with Anahuac for the district title(which they win) but I don't think they have the big bodies to go deep this year.

It's a good thing the Hawks consistantly win 30 games a year or ya'll might find something to argue about  ;D ;D

One of the most respected football coaches in the state of Texas.Prayers go out the entire Newton community from the folks in Warren.RIP Coach.

Not sure how long it will take to get this program turned around.The majority of this club is extremely young but they don't suit but 18 players with very few upper classmen.I hope more of the kids buy in to the young coaches philosiphy,if they do we'll start seeing a better program in Warren.This is a brutal district for a young club to be playing in.

I'm from warren and in all honesty, I don't see them winning a game. and before all my warren people start hateing on me, take a good look in the mirror and really ask yourself. can they win 1 game this season? They had there best chance against dewyville. yes i will always root and go for them but lets be honest. they just don't have the number of kids coming out and playing like they used to! [/quote] [b][size=10pt][/size][/b] Yes, Anahuac takes this one, I agree. I do NOT agree, however that Deweyville was their last chance for a win. Like you, I am a Warrior fan til the end, but I think that they can win a game or maybe two this season. [/quote]It will be tough they have DaWack,Newton,EC,Woodville,Hardin and Kountze left on this years schedule. Well i hope your right. but i still don't see it. I hope i'm wrong and will gladly eat crow if they do [/quote]It

Prayers to the entire WOS community from the folks in Warren.

FYI= Coach Andrews sat beside a pretty good coach for years.You won't find a coach at any level that can't learn from someone but there is only enough room in the first chair for one person and that will be Andrews.Don't cut Anahuac short last year, they were in the regional finals and came real close to winning it.Hate to break it to ya blue but I don't think you were the reason for EC'S loss.
