PNG1984

He played, just not on varsity. Waited his turn and ended doing pretty well.😁

That’s because your son didn’t play as freshman… lol

21-5a playing good ball proud of all of the teams 

Winner of Santa Fe/Manvel. Santa Fe won last night 15-0, but I think we match up well.
As far as last night game, our starting pitcher gave up 4 runs all of district, had a bad night giving up 5 in first inning. He'll bounce back next week. This team plays as unit and is always picking each other up. It's a different hero every game. It's a very fun group to watch.

Congrats NDNS! 21-5a flexing thier muscles today. BH, Ned, and PNG win 6 games today!

Its obvious that the Bmt Enterprise doesn't watch H.S. Baseball. 

Finish it Indians!

WP Rogers...  7IP, 2 hits, 13k

WP Rogers...  7IP, 2 hits, 13k

Rogers complete game.. 2hits, 6ks, one walk

Curtis.. 4-1 final

Burbank started 2 innings then Salter and Breaux and then Varnado pitched 7th

No Carson Rocaforte PNG?????

I think he threw the ball

Much Respect to coach Matthews..the 2 times the PNG players went down he came all the way across the field to check on them...very classy..you got a great coach Vidor 

Honestly I don’t think the problem on offense was the QB. We have to catch the ball and we have to realize when the run game isn’t working! Overall I think Grant Rogers stepped up and did a great job. 
We also have to stop with the penalties. It’s terrible! 

With no Roschon people may be quick to jump ship and say it’s a loss (memorial fans), maybe not regardless, I’m taking the Indians in this one... Bounce back from a tough home loss with multiple starters out. I’ll tkae PNG going away late. 

Everyone knows that Rogers the SR. backup is the primary backup with Bost probably taking over next year.  That information is in this thread and the Huntsville thread.  He probably meant, which one will start? In that case, its easy to go with the kid that has actually played, Rogers, but if he falters, Bost will prolly be on the sideline getting ready.

(Note: I'm not responding exclusively to Cougar 14.2, but this quote sums up a lot of what I'm responding to on this thread. Appreciate ya'll, and I'm enjoying the back and forth from everyone.)
Judging PNG on a single game is silly -- I admit there are causes for concern, but looking at "How PNG was without RJ" in the minutes after he got hurt is not a good look at how PNG will be without him. Losing a player like RJ mid-game is demoralizing. Let's see how PNG plays with a week to prepare for it. 
What is strange to me out of all of this is how quick/eager everyone is to rush to use a single game as an indictment on the entire PNG program (a program with more history and better results than most teams represented on this forum). PNG has had really good moments in recent history, really good moments that didn't involve Roschon Johnson. 
Further, let's stop acting like Roschon Johnson doesn't benefit from being at PNG. It's true that: 1) he would be good anywhere, and 2) he has a seemingly never-ending list of God-given talents and innate ability that anyone would term "once-in-a-generation" (to quote Coach Riordan of Crosby). But it is also true that we cannot fully separate Roschon's rapid development from the good quarterback coaching he gets from Coach Faircloth. Coach Faircloth has a long history of making so-so QBs decent, good QBs great, and great QBs legendary. There is no measurable way to concretely say that being at PNG hasn't made Roschon better. It is strange to me the tendency people on this site have to separate RJ from PNG, as if he isn't on the team. He is certainly a huge part of what makes PNG good at this point in time, but if this team had developed without him (as all but two other PNG teams in history have had to do), the team would find ways to be good, as the vast majority of PNG teams have done. 
None of this is intended to minimize the impact RJ has, and his value to the team. In my opinion, he is by the far the best, most dynamic player in PNG history. 
Finally, this idea that PNG is "just not that good" deserves some consideration. Good, relative to what? The reality is that there are several hundred teams in Texas. Half of them are at or below average. On a normal statistical distribution, about 60% of the teams will cluster on either side of the median, being slightly better or slightly worse than average. Does anyone honestly think that PNG is below average in the state of Texas? And, if we are above average, doesn't that make us "good." I don't mean "great," I don't mean "legendary." I mean "good." And even if I were to take at face value the argument that PNG is "simply not good," then I have to ask why PNG has so consistently beaten so many teams represented on this forum? If PNG is so bad, what's wrong with the rest of you? If PNG is so bad, we certainly over-perform enough for us to be confident that things are going to be ok. 
It also strikes me as telling that some of the most eager voices to rush to put dirt on the PNG grave site support programs with less pedigree.
Crosby? They are good right now, but they have certainly had their ups and downs in recent history.
Port Arthur? Given the talent, depth, and potential with which that team is swarming, juxtaposed with its mostly so-so performance across its 15-ish years in existence, Port Arthur might be one of the most under-performing teams in the area.
Nederland? Certainly a solid program, but the Bulldogs are no strangers to starting out slow and finishing strong.
So before we all rush to write PNG's obituary, a little perspective can help see that we'll be fine. Even if we lose on Saturday, even if this whole season goes down the drain (I say it won't, but time will tell), we still have a proven history of coming back the next year and punching "better" teams right in the teeth. 

I don’t know much,but one thing for sure is I wouldn’t take much stock in a scrimmage,in Nederland for sure the coaches use mostly new kids to see where they can be plugged in and help the team,they know what the returners can do.So not looking good in a scrimmage doesn’t mean you won’t have a successful season.On another note from what I’ve seen so far,this Nederland team has the possibility to be one of the better teams in a while,that’s if the sophmores step up and can handle Friday nights,this isn’t Thursday anymore..Anything is possible it’s a long season!!!!Strange things happen,with that being said,Nederland has the potential to go undefeated and the potential to be sitting home for the playoffs..Lets get this thing started,football season is finally here..Good luck to all players and coaches for an injury free and successful season!!Adults remember one thing,this about the kids and just gives us something to do by watching them play the sport they love!!!

Hate to see area kids lose....bright side is Pak will be MIA and no one has to read his ignorant comments anymore lol

When i went to buy tickets just now it shows PNG is Visitors on the ticket window
