I had a chance to watch Shepherd twice last week. I was impressed with a couple of their players. I thought they should have won more games in the HJ Marathon than they did. Good Luck to the Pirates rest of the year

Nederland-53 Hefner had 11 points Cade Smith had four 3's. Each time LC-M seemed to get within 6 points or so he would hit a clutch three. LC-M 43 Katon Brown had 14 Christian Weatherly had 11 Nederland advances to Championship against HJ/Huffman winner

Here is the info I have for Saturday's Bracket Play. I only have the Gold Bracket matchups Winners Bracket Games: LC-M vs. Nederland 11am Hardin Jefferson vs. Huffman 12:30pm Consolation Bracket: PNG vs. Chapel Hill 8am Aransas Pass vs. Laredo Nixon 9:30am Looks like another great day of basketball shaping up for Saturday. Many people are looking ahead to a Nederland/Hardin Jefferson Championship Game. Nederland is currently 13-1 with their only loss this season coming to Hardin Jefferson but don't sleep on Huffman or LC-M, both are playing solid basketball this week so far. No matter who advances to the Championship Game at 6:30pm, it will be well worth the drive over to Sour Lake.

That's correct. Loser of PNG/LCM plays at 8am. Going to be a chilly ride to HJ in the morning on that Yellow Dog!

After Day 1 here are the records for the each team: Pool A: Hardin Jefferson 2-0 PNG 2-0 Buna 0-2 Evadale 0-2 Pool B: Aransas Pass 1-1 LCM 1-1 Pollok Central 1-1 Vidor 1-1 Pool C: Huffman 2-0 Chapel Hill 1-1 Lufkin Hudson 1-1 Lumberton 0-2 Pool D: Nederland 2-0 Laredo Nixon 1-1 Tatum 1-1 Shepherd 0-2 Friday looks to be another good day of basketball with Games starting at 8:30am. Pool Play will end shortly after lunch with Bracket Play beginning at 2:30.

Thanks

Ashly, do you happen to know who won the following games? Lumberton/Huffman Lufkin Hudson/Chapel Hill Shepherd/Tatum I'm just trying to update my bracket after 2 Pool Games and see where the Gold/Silver Brackets are lining up

Yeah they are. They had several chances to take the lead against PNG today in overtime, just couldn't get a shot to fall when it counted. I'm curious of their score against HJ tonight, they played at 7:30PM

Aransas Pass-67 Pollok Central-64 LCM-53 Vidor-55 Overtime

Hardin Jefferson-71 Evadale-48 PNG-61 Buna-57 Overtime

Good Luck this evening to Nederland. I had a chance to watch Nixon this morning, they were impressive. Uptempo style, shoots ALOT of 3's.

Laredo Nixon-80 Tatum-59 Nederland-64 Shepherd-49

LCM and Aransas Pass went to Overtime. Bears hit two 3's early in overtime and go 7-10 from the free throw line in OT. Braden Bridges led LCM with 31 points, Katon Brown had 15, Cole Frost added 14.

Bears rally from down 11 points in the 3rd quarter. Good job by Coach Jeffcoat, Bears turned up the defense late

Does anyone have the entire list of the All-Tournament Team?

LCM-73 Grace Baptist-52 Final Bridges (LC-M) finished with 35 points

LCM-60 Grace Baptist-40 End of 3rd quarter

LCM-42 Grace Baptist-22 LCM's Braden Bridges has 23 points at the half

LCM-19 Grace Baptist- 6 End of 1st quarter

Vidor-52 Alvin-47 Final Kelly will face Alvin at 3pm today

Kelly-41 LCM-36 End of 3rd quarter

Kelly-28 LCM-30 Halftime

Kelly-16 LCM- 9 End of 1st qtr

Going to be a good early season test for both teams, in my opinion. Anyone know how many players Nederland still has playing football? I'm looking forward to seeing how far Hefner has progressed over the summer. I think this will be a single digit margin of victory for either team with it coming down to who executes in the 4th quarter. Oh yeah and LC-M can't get off to a slow start like they do sometimes. It seems Jeffcoat works some magic at halftime, as the 3rd quarter tends to be their most sound played.
