    They were people standing everywhere. In my opinion not near enough security for the people in attendance. Fight broke out in first quarter in standing area, look like security was slow getting there. All I saw was 2 policeman in uniform might have been more. Imo when you have people crammed in their seats probably 300 to 500 hundred standing and a couple hundred in cafeteria watching on big screen.  you have to wonder what the fire marshall consider capacity?  Otherwise great tournament, fun tournament and lots of good basketball.

    The attendance was for the tourney was way up this year. Big crowds throughout the tourney. Saw where the attendance was really good at the Tenaha Tourney. Good to see fans showing up for games. Early promotions for  tourneys makes a big difference.

    I saw that team several times over those couple of years.  Angel could fill it up..no question.  But if I were picking a team I'd take Benson first.  Several weapons.

    How is the Shelbyville team this year in comparison?  Good players?  Athletes?  Speed?  Size?  Mixture?  I am always intrigued when a small school has a run of basketball talent.

    Shelbyville has all IMO speed good height for a 2A School all the 7 that start most of the time can shoot from outside 3 can post up down low. Made to final 4 last year with most of team back this year . Point guard that can score almost at will. All good athletes 1 sign D1 in baseball another committed to D1 in baseball.

    Yes, Shelbyville put it on HJ pretty damn good.  Shelbyville is ranked #1 for a reason.  Their starting 5 is very good.  HJ is continuing to grow as a team and figure out their identity.  Teams have good games and bad games.  This was clearly a bad game for HJ, and Shelbyville capitalized on it.  Call it what you want....playing without a starter now for 3 weeks, playing their 13th game in 9 days, aches and pains, etc.  it finally caught up with them.  The same way HJ beating Nederland early in season and now losing by 20 points.  The same way Nederland lost to Spring Hill by 20 and then beat them by 10 two days later.  It happens.  If HJ and Shelbyville played 10 times I’m guessing it would be competitive in most games and each team winning 5 times.   I think most will tell you that HJ was ranked a little high in the TABC rankings after losing a bulk of their scoring from a year ago.  I diasagree.  When they play the way they are capable they are one the best teams in Region 3.  But with no true go to guy they all must play well to beat the better teams.  I love what Coach D is doing by playing so many young guys.  This year will be another great year, and the future is extremely bright in Sour Lake!!

    I think Vidor could have swept Pool B but we were missing several key players in both Thursday games. Played much better today with all of our starters but it is what it is. We’re Silver bracket B4 vs A3, does anyone have an idea who A3 might . 

    Vidor not beating Shelbyville 

    I usually don't do this but here goes. Shelbyville on Tuesday rode a bus 2 and half hours to a town close to Dallas and played the #7 team in 2A. Got back to Shelbyville well after midnight Wednesday morning. Then got up Thursday morning for another 2 hour bus ride to HJ to play Huffman @10:30 and Vidor @4:30 . Even though our starters played 2 and half quarters and left with a 32 point lead were told Vidor would have probably beat us if they had everyone. Being a 2A School we're not deep depth wise so l very proud of our kids to play 7 games in 5 days 6 games in 3 days. Good experience that will help them down the line. They learned a good lesson after the last game. They went 5-1 with their only loss coming on a last second Bucket in 61-59 loss. After beating HJ (2nd loss)  by 23 points we had 1 player awarded All Tournament HJ  had 2 players. It is what it is. Good experience for the Dragons.
