I might be a bit late but thought I'd chime in. I love these types of discussions. I'm of the favor that basketball is a sport where, like tennis (which is what I grew up playing actually), the more practice you put in the gym, the more improvement you will see. Shooting is like free throws. If you don't practice them repeatedly, you won't be as good. Here in West Texas where I'm from, the seed is planted in the youth sports and form is preached on how you shoot the ball at that level and it gets more advanced as you grow into a team's system, pending on who the coach is. Now, technology has changed the game. We have the shooting gun that helps with shooting as a whole with repetition and apps like HomeCourt where we can learn instantaneous by video if players have a problem with shooting. I saw that Martin's Mill was mentioned and I think they are a perfect example of how basketball is run. Now some may say that is a bad example because they don't have volleyball, but to be the best, you have to look at how the best do basketball and what makes them so good, their defense, the dribble drive and shooting. The tough part is finding players who play straight basketball in the smaller communities. Now, basketball, like football, is kinda slowly becoming urbanized where if you don't play all the time, you are not going to be as good as a player who does. It's easy to talk about players but coaches also have a role, by allowing access to facilities. If they gym is open, that's an opportunity for the players to get better. Watching TV was also something I saw mentioned and I think that is an underrated part of getting better. Sometimes, you have to watch the best of the best at the collegiate or pro level as well to improve. For the shooter v. scorer discussion, if you can shoot it, you definitely can score. I agree with Coach Shu's part for sure.

Our rankings were released today. Here are SETX teams in the poll. 6A #7 - Summer Creek #9 - Atascocita #11 - Beaumont United #25 - North Shore 5A #2 - Fort Bend Hightower #8 - Richmond Foster #9 - Alvin Shadow Creek #18 - Barber's Hill 4A #5 - Jasper #7 - Hardin-Jefferson #21- Houston Yates 3A #1 - Woodville 2A #7 - Woden #10 - Timpson #21 - Shelbyville #25 - San Augustine 1A #24 - Chireno

Missing the same two in 21-6A 22-5A Texas City 44, Ball 42 Crosby 56, Lee 47 21-3A Newton 40, Corrigan-Camden 37 Central 64, Hemphill 47 23-3A Anderson-Shiro 68, Harmony 6 Hempstead 57, Trinity 56 New Waverly 58, Coldspring 33 22-2A Timpson 74, Joaquin 26 Woden 49, Tenaha 32

I probably won't get them today. Central Heights is the district chair and they were on the road.

Hemphill 62, Pineywoods 43 Central Heights 60, Newton 31 Central 63, Corrigan-Camden 28

Warren won, 58-42. I just recently got on the list for 22-3A in district scores so I should get this covered.

From Coach Girola: Buna 60, Warren 38

East Chambers 48, Kountze 30

Wanted to clarify on the PNG - BH situation... We think both will split games but PNG wins on coin flip and we project they will get the 1 seed come playoff time. It may look weird at first but in detail, it makes sense. Also, Kirbyville typo is fixed lol.

Actually, the UIL's contract with the Alamodome is still in tact until 2021. I've heard that Baylor has been trying to get the state tournament for years and I've also heard that Dickies Arena in Fort Worth also could host but most likely not because football is already in the DFW area and the UIL most likely won't have two state competitions in the same metro area. It is an awkward setting in the Alamodome but I don't mind it because, less traffic. I'm pretty sure it won't be back in Austin because as long SxSW is taking place, hotel costs are through the roof along with traffic.

Ashlon missed out on making the 12-member final roster. Still, lots of potential for her high school career ahead. [Hidden Content]
