  2. Volleyball scores 1A 2A 3A 4A 5A

    in SETXsports Archived Threads

    Posted

    iwas told by a buna mom sat. buna won 2 lost 1

    it is a district game so it is best 3 out of 5, not best 2 out of 3.  I, too, am curious as to what the actual result is.  It would not surprise me that Kountze won because they are a very scrappy team and they hustle hard.

    just wanted to say that 2-1 result sounds like a freshmen/JV score, not varsity.

    Hardin wins in 5 over EC.  It was a heck of a game.

    Both teams played great .... lots of talent on both sides.  EC has a great setter, good job #5.

    I thought #8 for EC should be a candidate for early player of the year...man, she was good.  Sets very well, block and hit too.  She did not make too many mistakes.  This EC team is so much more improved than last year.  The new coach is doing a good job.

    How do you go to the biggest Volleyball tourney in this part of Texas and only play two (2) games? Several teams had this happen to them in this tourney. How can this happen? How can they not take the time to fix this mistake? It seems to me that if you short teams games in a bracket tourney then is the bracket complete and if not how can you have a championship team or any teams to place. With all these teams in this tourney NO ONE should have just played two games and go home, especially if you win a game. It looks like an incomplete tourney. If I'm wrong, explain why.

    Yes, you hit the nail on the head concerning the tourney.  This happened to us and we were not happy when we were told that, after winning our 1st match then losing the next match, we were done.  Not a good explanation given from the tourney directors/staff.  Wow, we might not come back next year.

    Highsky im a good enough person to not call biased!! I call right down the middle every game, so ill comment as much as i want about any team, also You think im the only official that gets on the board and comments about the sport they call?? no!!!

    chill, dude!  You need to reread what I posted.  I did not say you were biased, I said "it makes you SOUND biased."  You may not be the only official who posts on here, but I have only heard/read you say "I am a volleyball official" while the "others" have not said so.  I was ok with you posting comments until you said you were an official.  It is nothing personal against you (heck, I am a UT fan too), I am just of the opinion that officials should give the appearance of being unbiased and that includes commenting on teams on a public forum.  Just my two cents worth... :)

    utfan0 first of all, a vball official doesn't have any business commenting on teams/games because it just makes you sound biased & will make people wonder if you called the game in question. While I somewhat agree with your statement that you don't have to hit hard to be good, to advance in the playoffs you have to have some hard hitters on the team. It raises the odds that the other team will make mistakes if a hard hit ball comes at them as opposed to a dink or soft hit. :)

  16. Any scores tonight?

    Woodville 3

    Hardin     2    Woodville was missing 3 starters:)

    How can Woodville be missing 3 starters when it was only the first game of the year?  If we were going to go that route, I would have said that we were missing 2 starters this year, but they moved to Nebraska in kindergarten.... ;D

    most def...Ec is on my list with warren and buna

    While I will say that EC girls were very spunky last year, I don't know how you leave off Hardin off your list.  I think 8 or 9 out of the last 10 years Hardin has made the playoffs.  My list includes Hardin, Warren and everybody else for 3rd.  Kountze loses Kaila Johnson and that is one big loss right there.

  18. How about the Elbow from Derek Fisher!!!

    Do you guys think Ron will get suspended fro that throat slash towards Kobe??

    He wasn't doing a throat slash.  He was trying to let the officials know that Kobe hit him in the throat with his elbow.  NBA rules state that if an elbow is thrown above shoulder height then it is an automatic ejection.  That's what happened to Dwight Howard earlier in the playoffs.  Kobe is a legit superstar but he is dirty.  Case in point, in Game 1, Battier was defending Kobe well and he was getting frustrated so when Battier steals the ball, Kobe tangles him up and in the act of getting up, knees Battier hard.  Plus, Kobe was taunting all night long (last night) saying "you can't guard me" and the officials let him do it.  The NBA loves and protects Kobe from everything.

    Fisher should be suspended a game or 2 for his "hit" on Scola.  Everybody that I have seen (ESPN, etc) calls it a hockey-style cross check but this isn't hockey.  In hockey, they have helmets and padding and Scola had none.  What if Scola had hit his head on the floor and had a concussion?  If that happens, then the Rockets might not have Scola the rest of playoffs. 

    Now, before this playoff series started, I had a lot of respect for both Kobe and Fisher.  Kobe because he has that God-given talent that makes everybody go "whoa, did you see that?" and Fisher for his experience and smarts.  After the last 2 games, not so much now.
