Ditto, winner gets the 3rd spot and I think it will be the Wac.Woodville has a really good club but there will be 1 really good one left outta the playoff hunt.

I've known the Kountze coach since he was playing PeeWee ball and he'll have his club ready.I think Woodville has played the tougher schedule so far with both clubs beating Shepherd (there only common opponent by 8).That being said I like Woodvlle in this one. Woodville-24 Kountze- 20

No one wants to win worse than the coach.That being said the 4th string running back at a 1-a school probably shouldn't see a lot of action.I don't know if I ever saw a 1-a club with a 4th string.

This won't come as a surprise but Newton has one of the best 2-a programs in the state and has had for years.Warren on the other hand has struggled with only a handful of playoff appearances in their history.Neither statement has anything to do with class.Newton did what it should do, play to the last whistle with the kids that are on the field.The kids from Warren should also be commended.They have gone 0-20 over the past 2 seasons but have managed to win 3 ballgames this year and continue to play hard whatever the score.Success isn't always measured on the same scale.Good luck to both clubs the rest of the way.

Tall and lanky works great in high school ball and shooting is a bonus at any level however at the D1 level they recruit by position and even the 2's an 3's are stout.It doesn't take long to see their are no players on the opposite side that you can just dominate physically.

SLC doesn't lose many.Unreal to spend that kinda money on a high school stadium.

D1 basketball is a completely different animal these days.The shooting is only a small part of what it takes to play at that level.The speed of the game and the strength it takes to play at that level is the most overlooked aspect of the game in our corner of the state.

Rule #1 in Texas High School Football : Never pick against Southlake Carroll even if you have a 60 million dollar stadium.

I got to visit with Coach Issacs several years back when he was taking Big Sandy kids to Woodville summer league. He will do a great job with that program.Good luck coach.

The Lions will probably run the table in district but their lack of size will hurt them in the post season. If some of the returning players have grown over the summer they will be interesting. They will miss Linn stretching the defense.

The best thing about freshmen is that they soon become sophomores :)

This is  great tournament for the kids to get to play against some top notch competition.It is always well ran and a good way to spend a hot summer weekend.

Great post Hippie, I was raised in small boats on the Neches and Angelina rivers and still fish a lot. You don't fool with mother nature no matter how long you've been on the water.

I hope the young lady does well.Sometimes going home and coaching is the toughest place to go.I'll agree age is a matter of mind but experience can't be overlooked.I've enjoyed watching the Orangefield girls in the past and will look forward to seeing them progress this next season.

I learned a long time ago when you put up tournament dates and times you have to stick with them.You will always have some folks who can't make it but you usually have good turn outs.Better luck next time.

Tough place to start, expectations will be high and the talent pool may not be quite as high as it has been in recent years.Hope the young lady does well.

If you have a small aluminum boat there used to be one in south county called Spindletop bayou that had some really good bass/crappie and blue gill fishing.You had to have a smaller aluminum boat to pull over a set of rollers.I haven't heard anything about it in several years but it was really good years ago.

10/4 I wasn't bad mouthing your choice,I just didn't know if some of the posters had ever put in at Colliers Ferry.They really did a nice job when they rebuilt that park.I haven't fished down there yet this year but unless it's changed ya'll should look forward to catching a ton of bass.Usually you will catch 20 short fish to every keeper but it make for a super laid back day on the water.

I have fished out of the Pine Island ramp with a 19 ft bass boat and 150hp johnson for years.It's about a 15-20 minute run down to Big Cooks Lake or the Neches River.If you are gonna fish a weekend day tournament you can launch out of Colliers Ferry at the end of Pine Street and have a top notch ramp and a great weigh in place.I think you can lock thru the salt water barrier even on the weekends.Pine Island is a pretty open run with the exception of a few dead heads around where the LNVA canal crosses it.

When you have 38 all district selections in a 7 team district nothing should surprise ya.

The only possible way to improve on 30-0 is to play in a bigger district LOL.If i had a daughter she could play for Coach Davis any day.Congrats Janet on a great coaching job.

[/quote] Take a look at the year we won 3A:-)  when our only losses were to Memorial and Houston Milby... and Nash is right we don't play those teams in Austin ... also didn't we beat the last state tournament team y'all had? Actually we beat y'all twice that year:-) [/quote] Not many teams in the state that can look down upon the accomplishments of Kountze in basketball. [/quote]Amen I don't know who would be on the list but it wouldn't take long to call roll.

Congrats Guys !!!!!

Hate to see any pitcher lose a game like this, would have loved to seen this one.

Congrats to Shawn on the signing. As far as all the other questions about the JUCO route the situation is different with every player. The skill set to play D1 ball isn't always polished by position in high school ball. The competition for these D1 spots is unreal. Shawn has all the tools and with the work ethic he has I could see him developing his 15-18 foot shot and becoming a 3 at a D1 school.
