OF defense lifts ’Cats over Vidor, 56-40 Gabriel Pruett The Orange Leader BRIDGE CITY — The Orangefield Bobcats played exactly how Coach Rea Wrinkle expected them to play in the second half Friday and it led to the championship of the Bridge City Holiday Classic. While the Bobcats were winning the tournament, the Vidor Pirates were forced to settle for second and the Bridge City Cardinals took home third place. Orangefield 56, Vidor 40 The Bobcats took home the championship Friday after not allowing the Pirates a bucket in the second half until there was 6:14 left in the fourth period. The tough defense allowed Orangefield to come away with a 56-40 victory as senior Jeremy Granger was named the tournament’s MVP after scoring 11 points and snaring 12 rebounds in the final game. Vidor was unable to score at all in the second half until 1:38 remained in the third period as Scott Howard nailed home two free throws. “One of the things I emphasized at halftime was to pick up our defensive intensity,†Wrinkle said. “That (Jared) Williamson was killing us in the lane. To only let them have one shot, and it was free throws, in the third is a great thing. I was very happy with our defense the entire game. We keep doing that and we will be able to do some good things this year.†Orangefield opened the game up on a flurry as the Bobcats raced out to a 17-9 advantage after the first period. Zach Hayes, who was named to the All-Tournament Team, had six points in the frame while Devin Green, who finished the game with 10 points, added four. Scott Howard had seven of the Pirates’ nine points in the first period. Vidor then outscored Orangefield 14-11 in the second while the Bobcats led 28-23 going into the break. Chad Sims, who was an All-Tournament Team selection for Vidor, had seven points in the second to key a rally as the Pirates tried to chip away at the Orangefield lead. The game’s pivotal frame was certainly the third as Orangefield’s defense kept the Pirates away from the basket. The defense was much needed as the Bobcats could only muster up 10 points in the third. Both teams got hot in the fourth as Orangefield led 38-25 heading into the game’s final eight minutes. The Bobcats went 10-for-16 from the free throw line in the fourth with Ryan Granger even getting in on the action with two technical free throws. Granger has been out of action since early in the football season with a torn ACL. Jared Williamson, who was also an All-Tournament selection for the Pirates, scored 11 points for Vidor. Orangefield’s Jared Helton was named to the team and scored seven points to go with four rebounds. The Bobcats out-rebounded the Pirates 30-23.

Cy Springs stuns nation's No. 2 basketball team Panthers hand Florida Montverde its first loss in two seasons Houston just improved to 2-0. Cypress Springs defeated Montverde Academy (Florida) 65-59 at Houston vs. the Nation at the Campbell Center on Friday afternoon. Kingwood defeated De La Salle (Minnesota) on Thursday to kick off the three days of basketball. Montverde was ranked No. 2 in the nation by ESPN prior to the game. The Eagles hadn't lost a game in two seasons and came in a perfect 11-0. Cy Springs (19-2), fresh off winning the Houston ISD Jaycees/Reebok Tournament last weekend, pressed the Eagles from start to finish and relied on scoring from wings Phillip McDonald and Erik Williams to get the job done. "We came in really confident and we weren't intimidated by their ranking or record," McDonald, who had a game-high 26 points said. "We were just ready to get out here and play." After the first half, Cy Springs led 30-29, but was having trouble rebounding. Montverde boasts a roster full of height—only three players are shorter that 6-foot-3— and the Eagles were controlling the offensive glass. "That was an adjustment we had to make at halftime," Cy Springs coach John Harmatuk said. "We were going to be outsized, but we like to press. If they run their offense the way they want to, they will just grab rebounds and get putbacks. We really improved on stopping that in the second half." Williams added 23 points and seven rebounds for the Panthers, while Marcus Capers led Montverde with 16 points.

Awesome!

Good luck Ladies.
