weasel Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 The UIL Region 3 Bracket is now on line: There is an upper and bottom portion to the bracket. Here is how I see the top teams in each portion:TOP HALF OF BRACKET: Waco Midway Stratford PNG Brenham Santa Fe FosterBOTTOM HALF OF BRACKET: Friendswood Goose Creek Memorial Magnolia Kingwood Park Montgomery Lumberton NederlandTop half is VERY STRONG....Waco Midway is undeafeated and played in the State Semi-Finals last year! Stratford dropped down from 5A this year and is 19-2; PNG has had a tough early schedule and should be battle tested AND HEALTHY! Brenham is Brenham! Not enough info on Santa Fe and Foster...but both seem very very competitive!Bottom Half: Friendswood is the class and the pick to advance; Goose Creek has a viable record and seems to be in going in the right direction; Magnolia beat Brenham in first outing 1-0; then loss 5-0 to the Cubettes in the next game; Kingwood Park finished second to Stratford...and could be #2 on this list very easily... Montgomery won their District...and seem to be battle tested! Lumberton is my pick to make it to the 5th round and battle Friendswood ....Just my opinion....PS: Watch out for those PNG LADY INDIANS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FriendswoodFan Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Santa Fe has lots of talent, but has been a bit of a disappointment this year -- I was expecting more from them. Foster is about the same as always -- some very good players but also some glaring weaknesses. Sorry to say it Sharkie, but, I think the top half is all about Midway with Stratford being the only team capable of challenging them. But, good luck to PNG!!Lumberton is about as good a pick as any to make it to the Regional seminfinal to play FHS, but I do not see them hanging within 5 goals of the Lady Mustangs. The Midway vs. Friendswood final should be a really good game. I think the teams are closer in talent than any previous years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weasel Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I hear you loud and clear FF! Much respect to the two you picked to make the finals of Region 3! I just know that anything can happen in soccer...and that the Lady Indians from PNG will be a solid challenger for anyone..... ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
