  5. Hardin-Jefferson 70 Jasper 47/FINAL

    My take from being there and watching first hand was that HJ was able to take away Jasper's bread and butter which is pressure defense, and then that turned it into much more of a half court affair.

    HJ has a number of outside shooters who were "on" this game and Jasper could not match the scoring pace. HJ then got nice inside scoring as well as the game went on, and then as they say, "it was a wrap"....

    Jasper was working very hard defensively, and i think that my have affected their shooting percentage over the course of the game.

    I would also say Jackson's finger prints were all over this game, whether it showed up in the stat book or not...

    Legacy has indeed played a very hard pre-district schedule

    That was part of my post to Warrior1's original post, where THEY were discussing the Legacy Christian Warriors. I was commenting to that, I was not saying anything related to Warren.

    I realize it just little ole legacy but we are the smallest possible school in the area and we have gone 2/2 with your top 10. Beating Tarkington and LCM. We’ve also played Jasper, Westbrook, The Village(who beat HJ) and Houston St. Agnes(ranked 9th in 6A). We’ve also played #8 in TAPPS Lutheran North (ranked 8th in 4A). Our schedule has been one of the toughest in the area as well. Don’t count us out. Go Warriors! Oh btw we are currently ranked #5 in the state and we have not started district. We have 6 freshman and 2 juniors.  

    Great post. I think this is why OneChance started this thread. To get some good old debate going and to give some recognition to all the hard working young ladies in the SETX area. Legacy has indeed played a very hard pre-district schedule. Good luck to them as they move into district play.

    And just for the sake of debate.  How do you put Jasper over United and they've beaten them?  Also, H-J has quite a few losses.  More than United and Jasper...Was it because H-J played those 6a teams?

    Aren't head to head results usually one of the first things used in tie breaking scenarios? In that line of thinking, strength of schedule is sometimes used as a factor as well, although it is a less concrete and therefore more subjective "stat".

    Using the head to head criteria where United beat Jasper, Barbers Hill also defeated Jasper in the defacto Championship Game of the Lumberton Tournament. HJ will play Jasper this Saturday, so that will clear picture up even more.

    Would love to see a United vs HJ matchup so I wouldn't have to try to use each team's strength of schedule to determine a ranking edge. 

    Based on this point in the season, I think the Top 5 on this list could be in arranged in several different configurations that could be plausibly argued. 

    Any second 5 (i.e. spots 6-10) on this list are several notches down from any teams listed in the Top 5 of this list. 

    Lastly imo, I would replace Lumberton with PNG, just because I know OneChance just didn't want to put his home team on this list himself and Lumberton doesn't need any attention in their direction.... 😏
