This is not correct 2019 they missed the playoffs

year 2020 they went two rounds deep and lost to #4 coldsprings (I think) 

2021 they missed the playoffs 

Correct. For some reason, UIL has Kountze not making the playoffs that year.

This is the hidden content, please

I remember now they lost to Coldspring then Buna lost to them the next round.

When was the last time a non-playoff team knocked off East Chambers in basketball ?

 

wait,  I know this answer, I think.....

2017 •Hardin 

That's the game the officiating crew that worked that game was suspended for the remainder of the year by UIL for their officiating of that game. Was told it was pretty blatant "one sided" officiating going on. Certainly enough to get them suspended.

Yes. But that wasn't their problem. It was their half court defense. Got killed inside and was out rebounded 46-28

I watched the second half of the game on NFHS.  Their half court defense was definitely bad.  Also, Kountze missed several what I consider as unnecessary deep 3 point attempts.. and their free throw shooting cost them a few possessions worth of points.

Buna broke the press easily.  It turned into vastly more offensive points than it did turnovers in Kountze's favor.  I know that's what they do but it definitely wasn't working.  Not sure Kountze's answer for when they can't score from their press.  Seems like it's "give the ball to the PG and let him create".  Not sound in my opinion.. but, meh.  I don't really care.

Best of luck fighting it out for the last spot.

Kountze’s biggest weakness this year appears to me be their lack of size.  The young guys aren’t big enough yet to beat anyone up on the press. There’s gonna be some growing pains . If the long ball is falling they are going to be in the game if not it gets ugly quick.

I would give the slight edge to Buna. Call me crazy but i never liked this venue for a shooting club that lives by the 3 ball . I’ll take the Cougars by 4

Buna plays fairly well on the inside too. If big Isaiah Robinson gets position on you its a bucket. Franklin Renfro can rebound it well too. Saying that I'm with you. Buna by 8.

    • Funny how “MAGA” is considered a bad thing…. The MAGA crowd….etc…. Whoever doesn’t want to make America Great should leave. 
    • That's an interesting take, but considering that an incumbent enjoys a HUGE advantage historically, I think Covey came pretty close to an upset. I don't care one way or the other - the biggest reason being that I live in Hardin County. But I have to think the Trump endorsement got Covey that close in the first place. His only recognition was on a very local level, virtually unheard of before the Trump endorsement. Otherwise, he probably would've lost by thousands of votes instead of a few hundred. Just my observation.
    • I think the interesting point is this… Trump backed candidates do better when Trump is on the ballot. Back in March Covey was up by 3%, and that skirt from Jasper pulled about 10%… and most people believed that her voters would go directly to Covey. Conventional wisdom was that Covey would be up by 10-12 points if all things went according to the pattern from March. That just didn’t happen. Typically turnout is lower in runoffs than in the primaries, and my guess is that Phelan had fewer votes this time around than last, but covey had WAY fewer votes. A friend of mine has been watching a similar runoff in central texas, and the results were similar. The MAGA guy just didn’t turn out the votes this May.    My opinion is that a large portion of the support these Trump guys are just that…. Trump supporters. They’ll vote down ticket according to MAGA directives when Trump is on the ballot, but when they can’t vote Trump, they just don’t show up at all.

    • Then you should have known lots of people said the exact same thing when the alcoholic Democrat Ann Richards was elected way way back in the day. Texas has become redder and redder ever since. People, especially blacks, are waking up and realizing the Marxist Democrats are destroying them. Feel free to hold your breath waiting on your dream to happen though. That would be fun to watch, LOL.
