As much as it pains me to admit it, I don't think Silsbee will make it far enough to see Faith Family this year. There's gonna be times when our inexperience shows and against another competent 4A team in the playoffs will probably be it. Would love to be wrong about that though.

I think I was impressed with how BU played defense more than anything. Not a lot of teams can handle that. You take the ball to the rim, there's most always 3 or 4 long arms that can jump to meet you. Nothing comes easy. We had two 6`3s and a 6`4 kid that sat on the bench most the game. Wish we had at least tried to match them in size under the boards. Good news for Silsbee is they won't see another team with even half the talent BU has for the rest of the season. I can easily see United winning state this year and next year. It's a good learning experience for our young kids. Just keep working.

Final Silsbee - 56 United - 76

65 - 42

Youth showing under that pressure.

Too much standing around for Silsbee on the boards.

Yeah....I couldn't spell it lol. 35 - 22 at the half. We're trying.

23 with a dunk. BU up 2- 1.

Harris with a 3. 29 - 18. BU up.

Silsbee shooting the 3 ball badly. Dunk count even now.

We got size. We ain't playing most of it. Put some beef under the basket.

Baltrip with a dunk.

JV Silsbee - 46 United - 51

Freshman Silsbee - 68 United - 22

Talk about winning a state title and making it look easy. Really wish we could have seen a healthy West Orange take on this bunch.

They're probably talking about the Max Preps ranking for BU.

Could have sworn Adams was 6'1 his freshman year. Even remember him being listed as such on the roster 🤷

Keep in mind this is only Miller's second basketball game at the varsity level. Harris reminds me a lot of a former Silsbee kid who was also a 6`1 freshman a few short years ago. I believe that kid is doing well for himself these days. Bottley is also playing well for a freshman. Got two tough games coming up. One of them is a for sure loss. I just want us to compete better though. The other might be winnable.

If Lumberton wants a win over Silsbee, they had better do it this year. How good is their point guard play? Any answer below pretty good ain't gonna cut it.

Silsbee freshman Harris and Miller lead the team. Harris - 18pts 5asts Miller - 16pts 7rebs Gilder - 11pts 4asts Harper 11pts 4asts Baltrip - 10pts 6 stls

Orangefield still have their big kid? I liked us subbing in 5 at a time last game. Don't know if Coach Sigler is confident enough in the roster he has to keep doing it or not. We'll see. I personally think it can work in district.

Finally found some individual stats for this game: Raymond Baltrip 20pts 9rebs Shan Gilder 19pts 6rebs Jared Harris 17pts 5rebs 4stls Drelon Miller 10pts 4rebs 3stls

Got to go with PA Lincoln.

Don't remember the number, but he was a starter. About 6'3 and a thick build. I think #1 was on the floor, but not 100 percent on that. Edit: Checked the Max Preps highlights. He was out there.

Silsbee had 17 steals. That certainly didn't help Woodville's chances. The Eagles also shot the ball really poorly from the 3 point line. They did have one pretty good sized kid on the floor, but he didn't do too much.
