ORANGEFIELD at SILSBEE, LIVE TONIGHT here at SETXsports.com!!!

[BobcatBaseball8]

Silsbee 5-2

The bats from OF lit up Vidor one day then couldn't hit Liberty the next, never know what you're gonna get
Great potential, and if they show up this could be a great game
But silsbee might be a little too much
Hoping for a great game!

Sislbee has the bats to beat anyone, but not sure who they will pitch.  OF should give the Tigers a full dose of Braxton Smith who beat them in the playoffs last year.  Should be a good game but I'll take Silsbee 7-5............. So GLAD DISTRICT BALL IS HERE!!!!!!!!!

i am pretty sure they will not pitch braxton.

[Critter]

i am pretty sure they will not pitch braxton.

is he ok? Why wouldn't they pitch him if healthy?

[Gladtobehere]

Braxton is in Vidor now

[twilyms]

is he ok? Why wouldn't they pitch him if healthy?

I believe he is now at another school.

[Critter]

I believe he is now at another school.

oh WOW... time has sure flown by.... Then I guess Silsbee won't see Braxton :D

[chukslegacy]

Will he loose his elgibility this year because of transferring to another school?

[twilyms]

Will he loose his elgibility this year because of transferring to another school?

Being a senior, he is eligible 2 weeks after his move in day, I believe.

[chukslegacy]

Ok, So if your a senior then you can change districts or schools without loosing a year of elgibility! Cool, he is a great little pitcher and should fit in well.

[bulldog16]

Transferring for athletic purposes????

[BobcatBaseball8]

I was told him and Trawhon had a problem in the dugout during the middle of one of the games at the OF tournament

[texas13]

Depends if he lives in that district there is no senior rule lol

[PhatMack19]

OF has to fill out a form saying that he didn't transfer for athletic purposes. I've been told they didn't, so I don't see how he will be eligible this year. His best bet if he wants to play this year is to go to Kelly or Legacy.

[Gladtobehere]

Depends if he lives in that district there is no senior rule lol

That is correct, doesn't matter whether a senior or not....... only matters if you can establish residency in the district. 

[chukslegacy]

I believe certain members of the district will vote on this. UIL states that if you move for Athletic reason then you will loose a yr of elgibility, but if you move in the district, it may be different.

[Rake1]

How about getting back on track and talking about the game?
