Harrison had alot to say on twitter? I doubt he even has a twitter account.

How is Center finding their offense? They hitting any outside shots, or just around the bucket? Im pleasantly suprised weve got 29 at half. Silsbee pressing us into turnovers, or just doing as they please on offense?

Ill just say this, those guards have just as good a shot at scoring, defending, and getting rebounds as any "size" on the Riders bench. Im honestly surprised its as "close" as it is right now. Thanks for the updates, btw. Keep em coming

Youre being very generous if you think we will score 63 tonight. If silsbee wanted to win by 50+, i dont see them having much problem doing it. Im thinking center will be doing good to score 40-50 pts. Tigers 94 Riders 39

I give Liberty all the credit they deserve. They played a pretty disciplined game on offense. The only times they didnt score TD's was they couple times they fumbled the ball. Granted, Center's defense has been atrocious for the better part of the season, ESPECIALLY against the run. But with that said, Center had opportunities early on that we just couldnt capitalize on. The Riders recovered 2 onside kicks in the 1st qtr, and couldnt get points out of either possession. 2nd qtr just got away from the Riders, which turned out to be the difference in the game. They outscored us 35-12, to take a 42-18 lead into half. We never could gain enough momentum after half to get within 2 scores. Good luck to Liberty going forward

Final Liberty 55 Center 38

I think Silsbee wins somewhere in the vicinity of 95-80

1st qtr killed the Dragons. Valiant effort to claw back in it. Great season, Dragons. Way to represent Shelby County

Dragons trying to make a run. Gotta get some stops

Looking at hoopinsiders stats on Twitter shows rebounds were even at half at 15 a piece. That's surprising.

West's bigs are dominating the boards. Even when their 6'8" guy has come off, the Dragons have been virtually a non-factor on the boards.

We literally just got finished talking about this

Shelbyville playing very sloppy. Several nonchalant passes have lead to several dunks/easy buckets for West. Dragons need to soomehow weather the storm, and get theyre shooters going to have a shot

Is this a boys score for 1st/2nd in 15-4A?

CH started the game on an 11-0 run in the first couple minutes. Seemed like they got every hustle play. Woodville just wasn't able to weather the storm early and never could recover. Pretty sure they were down 30-12 @ half. CH made several 3's and Woodville really didn't have an answer for their guard play

Central heights vs center @ 930 this morning @ Whataburger tourney

Central heights beat bowie 38-33. Will play the winner of Center/Liberty Christian

Silsbee had little to no answer for center's jaterious Evans and kaleb parks. Center did a fairly good job of beating silsbee's pressure without making too many turnovers. Center played 8 players, with the starters playing 90-95% probably. Both teams had a couple key players in foul trouble down the stretch. Neither team shot FTs very well, although center probably made more down the stretch, including the 2 that would eventually win it. I think Silsbee rebounded a little better, especially on the offensive boards, which puzzled me, since center has 2 kids down low at 6'6" and 6'7". I don't know the count for sure, but I think center had around 6 or 7 dunks to silsbee's 1...I think. Obviously this was my first time to see silsbee this year, but the majority of the offense they ran was just to spread the floor and let McCain, Bush, or Adams dribble/drive to the rack and either take a contested layup against the center bigs, or kick it to the 3 pt line. But the most of the time, Center was able to contest even the 3 pt shots Silsbee is a dang good team. I'm sure they missed some shots that they normally make, as did center. Both teams made some very difficult shots too, though. As most of you guys have said, Silsbee will be just fine moving forward.

Would anyone happen to have stats from last night?

What. A. Game! Atmosphere was electric. Game was exciting til the final whistle. I saw someone from Silsbee ask if they had a full squad tonight. I don't know, but one of center's starters didn't play tonight due to him tearing his ACL today. Safe travels to all heading back to Silsbee.

Good job Tigers

They played the same style of defense...
