THS99

Yep, Fulshear was a 6A, almost right after the last realignment.  The most significant difference between the two offenses was that Fulshear was full steam ahead on swinging away; there was too much firepower from their outside hitters.  Difficult for BH's defense to pick up all those missiles being fired at them.  Overall, BH had a great run and beat outstanding teams in Foster, Friendswood, and College Station; not a bad showing.

Didn't help that the up ref in the match didn't seem to have a grasp of some of the basic rules of volleyball.  That being said, Fulshear came to play and were hitting absolute bombs.  Congrats to the Chargers on a good win and good luck at State.  Congrats to the Eagles for a dominating district run and a great playoff run.  Hopefully, realignment can work in their favor to get them moved to a new, more competitive district.  More of the same, plus two more BISD schools, is not what the program needs to grow.

Heck of a  run, BH! You made Eagle nation PROUD! 

BH falls in the Regional Finals to Fulshear 3-0. Fulshear has an incredible team good luck to them at State. BH had a phenomenal season great job ladies!

BH wins I think 3-1 and advances to the Regional Finals!!!

Good luck, SETX! 

That Highschool cannot hold 3800 students so the two High School talk is going to restart again. Even with the planned expansion that building is no where near big enough to hold that population. 
Ten year projections have been waaaay off before but perhaps this is our last alignment pre-6A we will see. When we get put in that Humble/King/NS district we are going to quickly become irrelevant in football unless there is some fantastic program building. 

BH beats Friendswood in 3!

Why didn't they kick a FG? Just take the points!

BH having to go through a very tough Foster team could play to their advantage.  They had to put together a complete match to win and are battle-tested.  Friendswood, on the other hand, drew a significantly weaker Randle squad that got handled by Foster twice during their district play.

There may be hope for this program. I watched the 8th graders play a few weeks ago. 8A is very good and very athletic. Their only loss this season (to my knowledge) was to CO Wilson. 

Before the playoffs get rolling tonight I wanted to see everyone’s opinion… What teams in the coverage area can make it at least 3 rounds deep? Barbers Hill and Huffman are about the only two I can think of… am I missing any?

It is an "issue" because the district is "unable" to keep up with the growth. The growth has placed an unsustainable burden on the school district. It is not "great for the local economy" because there is very little tax revenue. There are no "lines" to be read between.
Teachers do not have classrooms and rotate throughout the school for each period while other teachers are on conference. Students eat lunch on the floor because there is not enough room for tables and chairs in the cafeteria. Admin/teachers cannot manage the students safely because of the overcrowding. How much do you want know? There is a lot more.   

Undefeated 17-5A Champ Barbers Hill  vs 24-6A undefeated champ Clear Springs 
BH wins 3-1
20-25 25-22 25-23 25-17
BH has beaten 7 District Champions 6 of which went undefeated in their district
6As Deer Park, Bellaire , Atascocita, Clear Springs
5A Friendswood
4A Huffman
6A Pearland had one loss and were Co-District Champs 
BH losses are to #1 6A Grand Oaks, defending 6A champ Dripping Springs, #5 6A District Champ Lake Travis, and 3 private school powers. Arguably the worst lost is to district runner up 6A Vandegrift in Austin. 
 
GCM beat Sterling 3-1. 
 
 

If Ned plays clean then they can beat Sante Fe. The difference between 3rd and 4th is big. RSS and GCM have no shot against FW, but I think that RSS has a punchers chance against this years Manvel team. Not sure about GCM, maybe they do as well. BH should bury LP.

All the blacks didn’t pull out because nobody was harassed. Hair jokes are cool, but keep this about football.

BH lost one game and everybody acts like we are the new Crosby.  I didn’t hear nothing when PAM lost to Lee last year? Anybody can be beat on any Friday.  Y’all letting the hate cloud your judgement.  Looking forward to a great game next Friday.  Hoping everybody from both sides stay healthy for post season play.

If Sterling can handle PNG Tuesday, then a tie breaker game will be held Friday between GCM and Sterling I assume.
Pretty important game, as the 3rd place gets Manvel and 4th place gets Friendswood. 
Bi-District matchups appear to be
BH vs LaPorte
Nederland vs Sante Fe
RSS/GCM vs Manvel
RSS/GCM vs Friendswood 

GCM defeated Sterling 3-2, winning the 5th set 15-13

I would bet that things are pretty much set for this district.

I think the 4th spot is still up for grabs. 

Good effort by the Ganders. Have to be proud of the way they play. Just not enough depth. Too many guys playing both ways and additionally some sloppy stuff like muffing kick off returns and punt snaps. Just not quite good enough.
GC needs to let them play down where they belong in division 2 instead of making the Baytown teams stay together.
Still an outside shot at playoffs.

You’re right. And that’s a shame. I do agree you have to have a shared focus on academics and extracurriculars for district success. Sadly, the latter is usually the main focus. 

So Dr. Patterson is an amazing person no question about it. Having worked with her as a teacher of her child she was always really positively involved. From what my contacts (former colleagues) in the building can tell me that nearly all of her mistakes that are being viewed are about athletics. 
Every school in the entire district has been measurably better under her leadership. She has taken several schools that had rating issues such as the middle school and Barrett Primary and pushed them into well rated academic schools. The education in Crosby has literally never been better than it is today. Within a school district with 50% free and reduced lunches you have a thriving academic environment. 
Football coach hire was a failure under her leadership and those ultimately fall to the Supers feet in these sort of districts. The truth is firing the coach and hiring a new one is much more palatable then firing a Super, especially one with a lot of community support and who has measurable achievements. 
Not privy on the baseball coach situation but I'll take your word on it. 
Four day work week is in year one that'd be like measuring success for your child at the two week mark and saying your kids an A student. 
85 Million Bond is about growth, and getting buildings up and running before every building is beyond capacity. It won't be the last bond because the area is exploding with growth. I wouldn't be surprised if the two high school talk starts again. 
Too many people forget what a Superintendents job is. It has nothing to do with the football team or baseball team and if that's all your going to look at with a district then you need to get your priorities straightened out. 
 
As someone who has three nieces and nephews in the district I could care less if the entire athletics program imploded if it meant my family gets a better education. I'm about as hard core a Crosby football fan as there is but priorities are waaaaay off on this post.
