Gameday2

Probably the fact that they were also searching for a new supt. weighed real heavy in the decision to go with an interim. Maybe they can find a new supt. before long and focus on new A/D HFB coach. Until then sounds like Coach McDonald will do a good job.

I have to agree that it seemed this year there was less effort and desire in the Lions Club hosting the event. It is a lot of work: I hope for the upcoming athletes it can continue.

Congratulations to the winners. The WRS awards always draws attention due to what it represents. For an athlete to be nominated by his coaches, then to be selected as a finalist by the committee is a real honor for these young men.

That amount of applicants should provide some potential AD / Football HC candidates. Due diligence to seek out best candidates should be the goal.

I can see where Lumberton AD/HC should draw some interest; growing community, facilities ok;

Hope Coach Reyes the best, East Texas is home tuff for him.

Is Johnson recovering from injuries? Have been wanting to see him in action on the court.

Been waiting to see him on court also. Any word on when is Miller expected to play?

Thank goodness everyone kept their head and just continued to play ball. Was glad I went and watched this game. Harris and # 1 for Lufkin are both fun to watch. I agree Tigers need to show up on the boards. Most of night Lufkin players had position under the basket and easily out rebounded the Tigers.

Needville executed better on all phases tonight and won. Special thanks to this group of Raider Seniors thru the years watching your games from youth leagues to high school. You have been competitor’s all the way.

LCM should be in the running for DC next year, but Lumberton will be lurking, Huffman had a young team this year, and Livingston is due. Vidor is capable of putting together a contender. All said should be a more competitive district race next year. HJ and Liberty will be needing to justify their decision to compete up.

This will be a good game. Raiders come thru 24-17 Roll on Raiders

Both Raider rb’s do a good job, contrast in style makes them effective. Needville rb reminds me of former LCM rb Morris. Good balance, you have to wrap him up and make sure he is down.

Been to many of Silsbee games over the years, Silsbee will take the field with one thing in mind, to win. This game first, then talk about the next one.

Lumberton just needs to focus on Needville this week. One game at a time.

Hard to explain the Nacadogches game. Several players were still hurt, but it also seemed Raiders were not ready for that game. After that game coaches starting making adjustments and injured players came back.

This is when a team like Silsbee can say “next man up” the backups and 2nd teams have had plenty of playing time during regular season and can help their team now. Go Tiger Nation.

The Raiders will take this one. Raiders are playing their best ball now. Defense and offense. One game at a time no looking ahead.

Probably is a factor, but I agree previous coach seemed to schedule some teams for “win” percentage. Some of my Vidor friends describe wing t offense looking like an ant bed that has been stirred up.

I have felt all year this defense could be special, front seven are really solid, adjustments later in season helped the secondary. Offense is able to put good drives and wear down a defense. Always the threat of a big play happening. Best thing, they play as a team, believing and supporting each other. Coaching staff still making little adjustments.

Raiders will need another strong performance on both sides of the lines of scrimmage. Defense making strong stops and offense cashing in. Special team play keeping big plays in check. Looking good Raiders, don’t let up……

Good win by the Raiders. Game was predicted to be a close one. Raiders dominated from the start and pulled away. Defense shut down Athens early and Raiders offense responded. Had too many false starts on the line, something to practice on this week. Next up Needville…..

Rain is forecast to be moving out early afternoon in Lukfkin/Nac area. Should be good football weather. Raiders Full Throttle tonight.
