WP--Svoboa    LP--Spikes

Pretty well played game.  Couple of miscues for PNG and they didn't handle WB's baseruners very well.  Nice delayed steal by WB to score a run.  PNG looked unprepared for that.  I didn't understand why WB tried to bunt with 1 out and a runner at second.  Were they looking for a bunt hit??  Otherwise, well called game by WB coaches.

I agree with westend1 on the assessment of the WB-PNG game.  PNG came out flat and stayed that way most of the game.  Spikes threw alot of pitches and probably should have been pulled one inning sooner.  WB hit the ball well and Svoboda pitched well. 

PNG had a great weekend otherwise, winning the tournament.

Good luck to both teams as they prepare for district play in another tournament next weekend - PNG in Lufking and Westbrook to Louisiana Barbe tournament.

Waiting on weather to determine if Monday's games happen.

IMO it looked like Spikes was left in there a inning to long. He really settled after a rocky first inning. Other than that I thought he pitched a good game. Congrats to Svoboda for going the distance for the Brook he had a great game.

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
