District play begins with a tough one. Can the Pirates keep it close or is big Hef going to put on a show for the Vidor fans in the house that English built?

My 9 year old son ( birthdate is Nov of 2007) is interested in playing select basketball. I'm not sure how to go about finding available teams in our area. I've been unable to find much information by googling or searching Facebook. Or is it pretty much just by word of mouth? Even if tryouts are over, we'd at least like to be prepared for next year and make sure we know about what time of year tryouts are and who to contact. Any help in this area is much appreciated. Thanks.

Incoming 9th grade Vidor Pirates basketball looking for any and all scrimmages. Need a good scrimmage next week, will play any local team. Our gym or yours?

Is there any club/select basketball teams for youth boys in setx? My son is 11 and very interested in playing club.

We can take on a few more teams if anyone is interested. Please contact Coach Cates, or McMurry. Please email either of us if interested [email protected] [email protected]

                    Darius Paul, a 6-foot-8 forward who spent last year at the University of Illinois, is joining Lamar State College-Port Arthur for the 2014-15 season.                 Paul earned Freshman of the Year accolades in the Mid-American Conference at Western Michigan after averaging 10.4 points and 5.7 rebounds as a freshman. He sat out the 2013-14 season per NCAA transfer rules. Paul was originally expected to contribute for Illinois in the upcoming campaign, but received a one-year suspension after what UI Coach John Groce described as “multiple transgressions." Coach Groce did not go into detail about specific incidences.                 “Lamar State College-Port Arthur provides a family environment where student-athletes can attain academic achievement, athletic success and personal growth,” Seahawks Head Coach Lance Madison said. “Lamar State-Port Arthur provides the resources necessary for student-athletes to achieve their goals."                 Paul transferred from Western Michigan to play for the Fighting Illini, following in his brother’s footsteps. Brandon Paul is a former Illinois star guard and Illinois Mr. Basketball.                 “Lamar State-Port Arthur is the perfect fit for Darius," Illinois Head Coach John Groce said.  "I have known Coach Madison for many years and have a tremendous amount of respect for the way he coaches and mentors young men.  In speaking with Darius and his family, I know they are determined to take full advantage of this opportunity he has in Texas.  I am confident that Darius will grow as a person, student and player during his time at the college.  Illini Nation is behind him.”
