Zach Quinn will be missed....I've enjoyed watching him Coach the past 5 or 6 years and I consider him one of the best in our area....Not easy to come in and start a new program and be successful, but would have liked the opportunity to see what he could have done with a talented group of kids that put basketball first....Good Luck Mr. Quinn!!!!

Maybe they could talk Brian English, who is currently the head coach at Nederland into comming back to Vidor. You know Quinn led the Pirates to a 23-9 record this season, including a 19-1 start....not bad.

Not gonna happen. Why would he leave Nederland? His program is thriving, and he is coaching his own kids. 19-1 looks good on paper, but Vidor played against sub-par competition.

Sterling is the guy. Just has to have board approval.  One returning starter and a total of 2 lettermen. One of those plays football, so he wont be practicing basketball for some time once football kicks off.  It will be a very young, small team.  In order for this years team to have any chance at a good record, the staff will have to find a way to motivate kids to work way harder to improve their skills and then learn to play as a team.  It wont be easy to do that in Vidor.  No community support for basketball. No Little Dribblers to help get the little kids learning fundamentals. Heck, Vidor doesnt even have a rec center or outdoor basketball court any longer.  Pretty sad, really.

[/quote]Okay, but please let HF enjoy our win against Vidor yesterday. Yes it was a summer league game but at this time we gotta take any victories we get now ;D

That is very sad to hear. You think there is someone in Vidor who is passionate about kids and basketball. Implementing a Little Dribblers program is the 1st step to succes, but it will not happen overnight. Nederland began a LD program about 7-8 years ago (I believe?). It wasn't until a few years ago that their program became competitive. Without fundamentals, any team has a steep hill to climb. Sounds like it's gonna be a rough season for the Pirates.

I don't think LD started in Nederland until about 7 or 8 years ago. I know my son played in the Ned Red League, but it was not LD. And he graduated in '09. I think Coach English may have been the one that started LD in Nederland.

That wasn't exactly HF grinding out the win vs. Vidor's summer league team.  Looked more like Elite Red AAU squad squeaking out the W.

All those kids suiting up for HF next year?  If so, let me be the first to say congrats on the district championship. 
[/quote]Thank you! I think there were two kids not from the HF area playing that day. Can someone just give us the trophy early? ;D
