La Marque to play Dallas Kimball for the 4A championship

[cougar2011]

La marque beats Heights 72 - 61; Kimball winning 44 - 31 in the 4th quarter

Kimbal wins 50 to Cedar Park's 36

Should be an interesting state final. Kimball, with their three big man recruits in Jairon Henry (Former OU basketball player Skeeter Henry's son who was brought in from Cali a couple of years ago.), Jordan Williams (The kid that forced The Colony to forfeit every win from last year.) and Jalen Jones (Brought in from Mansfield and not eligible to play until December.) might be enough to tip the scales towards Kimball. The Knights have a capable backcourt, but it's not the strength of the team. If Kimball's trio of bigs is scoring at a high clip it's going to be hard to knock them off.

[/quote] Yeah, i finally got to see them play thursday against cedar park. they are very talented. And have alot of height and quickness. But i think la marque's up tempo style will be the factor.. they have alot of endurance as opposed to where kimball showed signs of fatigue against a slower paced cedar park.
