Ehh... Nederland just had a big wakeup call, but so did Ozen.  I'll give Nederland the edge, simply on their coaching advantage.

it's very important.  most of these kids will never play at a level beyond their HS team, and the life lessons they take from their coach will be much more important than what they learn about the actual sport.

from the girls' coach: The Lady Hawk Soccer Team faced the Hudson Lady Hornets last night at Hawk Stadium. The Lady Hawks dominated the field with a 4-1 victory. Leading the Lady Hawks offense was freshman Kat Padgett with a hat trick assisted by Tori Harbin and Maddie Holdreith. Maris Briggs also made a long run up the field to score late during the second half of play. Janie Davis, freshman starting goalkeeper collected 15 saves for the game holding the Hornets to only one goal. The Lady Hawks will travel to Diboll Friday night.

[/quote] are you implying that it is in fact a good thing to hire basketball coaches with no basketball experience?  and that anybody who questions that is doing so simply because it's BISD, and not because it's a questionable coaching choice?

watched the game, and it was a good one... decent win for Texas.  they had to beat the refs IMO as well, but i admit to being a bit biased :)

[/quote] Preach On East TX bball! Some try intimidation techniques to demoralize others. It gets real old on this board when people talk about teams that they have never seen play. I don't think Boise State approached their BCS game against Oklahoma a few years ago when they were clearly the underdog, yet beat all odds and won the game. They were not afraid of their NAME only! [/quote] I think Vidor was picked a favorite in 3 games maybe this year in football and yet they went 10-3 and to the 3rd round of the playoffs. Odd's don't mean a thing. [/quote] they had a good year, but realistically, they still had no chance to make it to state.  the same holds true for our teams out of 20-4A this year.

If so, I have to disagree with that statement. I mean you are down to just the final 4 and I have been to what will be 41 straight state tourneys and most if not all the teams there have a very descent shot of winning it all id not a great shot. It's just 2 wins away for all of them. [/quote] i got the impression that he was talking about any team that made the playoff tourney.  obviously, once they get to state, or regionals, for that matter, they have a chance.

[quote name="beechnut" post="1172348" timestamp="1328408106"] Is Rick in trouble? [/quote] nah.  they've lost what, 5, 6 players leaving early to the draft in the last 2 years?

i knew i did poorly... glad to see most folks did worse than me!

they have 4 or 5 winnable games coming up.  none of them will be signature wins, but they'll have a shot to go about .500 in the big 12 with over 20 total wins.  they might squeak in.  who knows.

Who do you think has a chance to make it to state from our area?

congrats!

wow!

I fell asleep reading that score

[/quote] If they only won by 7 at home at the very end, I think this one will be a barn burner. [/quote] you're entitled to that opinion.  WOS has improved enough to keep it close on occasion, but Silsbee is still 20-25 points better than them on a whole.  I think the close game they played last time will ensure that Silsbee comes out sharp in this one.

i like how he celebrates it... while the other team celebrates it... and then he realizes what he did :)

i couldn't figure out how that could happen until i saw the tape.  catching a contested inbounds pass while you're running towards your own basket and laying it up all in one motion... too much muscle memory :)  still terrible, though.
