New Waverly vs Coldspring game will be very telling on how for real New Waverly will be in the district playoff mix.
Onalaska vs Tarkington will be a very tough contested game. Could easily see that game coming down to who has the ball last with a win at the buzzer. 
 
really interested in how the EC vs Kountze game goes I bet that will be super fun game.

Just crunched some numbers. We are officially at Christmas break and so far on this high school basketball season I have watched over 50 games and 77 high school boys basketball teams. My goal each year is to see 100 teams. Now I have seen some of these games online but the vast majority of the games I have seen I have attended in person. (tournament season helps get the numbers up). Next week is the last week of tournament season then it's nothing but district play until playoffs. Just Tuesday/Friday schedule after next week.
Next week I'll be attending East Chambers, Little Cypress-Mauriceville/IP, Lee College Classic and Hull-Daisetta tournaments.
Looking forward to the final week of tournaments and then district season in full tilt.

Thank you very much to the Orangefield coaches, staff and community for a great tournament. Onalaska got exactly what we needed out of it by playing real competition in one of the best areas in the state for basketball. Great preparation for district play next week for our program. 

Coach, you are a class act and have a real good group of young men! They believe in you because you believe in them and it shows. Your program is definitely on the rise! Good luck to you guys this season!

#12 for Big Sandy had 26 points, 14 rebounds in just a little over 3 quarters of play.

I’ll post updates when I can from there. I get no service at their campus but when we leave it I’ll try to post scores. 

I'll be there for the 4:30 and 7:30 games tomorrow.
I will not be there Friday or Saturday so really would appreciate the updates.

East Chambers jumped out early due to Big Sandy committing turnovers. BS had 14 turnovers in the first half. What kept BS in the game was their rebounding, limiting EC to just one shot per possession. Down only 1 at half with 14 turnovers, one would have to be pleased.
Big Sandy took care of the ball much better in 2nd half only committing 2 turnovers total. That limited EC points and forced them into a half court game. Other than #5 Bourdeaux, EC shot the ball poorly and with BS controlling the boards (out rebounded EC 38-22) the Bucs were very limited offensively.
Credit to Big Sandy and Coach Foster. They made the adjustments at half and played a much better, in control basketball game to win it. BS only plays 6 players while Coach Sutherland had at least an 8-9 player rotation. Really thought that would come into play late in the game but BS just got better as the game progressed. As no surprise, the Wildcats are a very well coached team.
Really good to see these two teams play each other early in the season.

I bet that was a great one. Two great programs and coaches. 

Orangefield doesn’t have one team pre-district that is a cupcake. They are playing tough competition. You should probably check them out at their tournament they host in 2 weeks.
 
And if your comment is in regard to the quality of competition that Onalaska is then I would encourage you to watch them play as well at the Orangefield tournament. Historically I get it that Onalaska hasn’t been on that level but it’s a way different program now and that’s not me tooting my own horn as that’s all thanks to great kids. 

56-52 trinity wins

As always thanks for covering the game. Could be a fun battle this season as we are in every tourney together this year. Rematch in 2 weeks in Big Sandy.
