Always difficult at their house

It's the same at EC! Tough place to play.

Closer than I expected 

Much closer. Buna didn't play well, and was fortunate they were playing Warren and not EC, OF, or Anahuac. Maybe they were looking ahead to EC on Friday,

They did. EC 32 OF 16

I think Warren beat Buna

They did. 43-39. Nice upset win for Warren, and a bad loss for Buna. Give Warren a lot of credit. They shot very well from 3 in the 1st half and built a 13-point lead at halftime. Buna came back in the 2nd half and took the lead at one point in the 4th. Good ballgame.

EC by 5

They're playing very well and are much improved over last season. However, their 4-0 consists of wins over Anahuac, Warren, Hardin and Kirbyville. Arguably those are the 4 teams likely to miss the playoffs in the district. Tonight against Kountze and next week against OF and Buna will be a good indicator of just how improved EC is this season. Either way, it's a very strong start to district play for the Lady Bucs!

Silsbee would win by 25+

40+ if they wanted to

Hard to believe Kountze is 20-2 yet still unranked.

Evadale must have been missing some kids...

This can very well be a three team race for district. If Anahuac can step up their guard play some (shooting, defense) they are capable of upsetting EC or OF.

Don't count out Buna. They went toe to toe with Orangefield last week losing by 7. They had a lead till about midway through the 4th. There will be a lot of very competitive game in this district.

I’m kinda surprised Kountze isn’t ranked… They are 17-1 (3-0) and their only loss is a 4 point loss to 2A #5 Evadale. 

I agree. I've seen them play. They're really good.

No Buna/Evadale tomorrow night.

Thanks for checking!

The two schedules I was given has them playing this Tuesday night, the 20th

I might have gotten some bad information, but I don't think that game will be played on Tuesday.

NRG puts AT&T to shame! The parking at AT&T is awful and the stadium doesn’t light a candle to NRG. Jerry Jones is all about the almighty dollar. He could care less about fans with families. 

Maybe you just have better memories of NRG because the Indians won there?

Evadale played Woden last night.

None of the schedules that I received had Buna playing Evadale last night.

There was some kind of scheduling mix up between Evadale and Buna. No one cancelled. It was just a simple mix up. It happens. Maybe they can reschedule and play a game sometime during the break.

Absolutely 💯 

They definitely should be locks. Both have been doing it at a high level for a long time. Congrats to both great coaches

Really happy for Buna. The girls still love and respect their former coach, but they really wanted to beat him badly! Nice win for them.

I don't need to be beating some old man at 1v1!

He coaches all out, all the time.  He never changes if his team is really good or really bad.  That's why he's a good coach.  He doesn't leave when he thinks we won't be good.  He just continues to build his program.

I'm not arguing that at all. I'm just saying even the best coaches have to have some talent equal to or close to their opponents, or it's going to be tough.

Don't worry about us!  The Mighty Raiders are coming off a district title in football and we have a proven leader on the hardwood.  Mitchell will get us where we need to be.  Best of luck to your Cougars and their run through the playoffs!

Mitchell is great! However, the team just isn't quite as talented as a few he's had in years' past. If they even make the playoffs this season, it would be one of Mitchell's best coaching jobs.
