PoppaBearstarr Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 [quote name="BADSANTA" post="1168996" timestamp="1328060080"]I would imagine each school could profit 2k-3k more moving it to a neutral site just off ticket sales. I heard in Silsbee alone close to 200 fans were locked out. Move the game to Beaumont as a main attraction, you would pull another 200 plus people just in that area alone. I more than sure each school could put that extra money to good use.[/quote]Schools only get a small percentage of the gate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST413 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Another great game by these two teams. I do beleive the two teams are a lot more equal than most thought before district. Very proud of my Tigers tonight. They battled foul trouble throughout the second half. To have Gaines pick up his fourth early in the third and then have one of our top scorers in Holmes foul out early in the fourth as well as our starting big man, and hang in there with a chance to win right up until the end. Great game guys and congrats HJ on a hard fought victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST413 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Tonight the difference overall in my eyes came down to the better free throw shooting by the Hawks and poorer 3 pt shooting by the Tigers. With our size, in these type of games, we have shoot better than 3 for 18(if that was the correct numbers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazeek Posted February 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Gates open at 4:20, and doors were locked at 4:49. I would estimate that HJ had a crowd advantage of 65-35%. But the crowd's were very well behaved tonight with only one person being escorted out of the gym tonight by the law. Kudos to the HJ Admin, SLPD and Hardin County Sheriff's Dept for running things smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tight calls and too many key players in foul trouble. We will have to adjust to those calls better and stay out of that problem in the playoffs. Not an excuse as they were called both ways sure I saw calls I thought were missed but I saw them on both ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AggiesAreWe Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Silsbee had 4 players foul out (Dobbins, Holmes, Reed and Jackson), 2 starters, first two reserves. Dobbins fouled at the beginning of 4th, Holmes fouled out at 5:33 mark of 4th, Reed at the 3 minute mark 4th. With Silsbee's leading scorer (Holmes) and the only two post players the Tigers have (Dobbins and Reed), Silsbee was really hamstrung that 4th quarter. Also, Gaines had to play the entire 4th Q with 4 fouls after picking up his 4th early in the 3rd. Hawks took full advantage of the short handed Tigers.Officiating was very fair. No issues what so ever. Very good job.Hawks earned this victory by making their last 10 free throw attempts and going 16/18 from the line in the 2nd half.

Not so sure that the time out was called because of that or just the fact of the turnover and score with that little time remaining. Unfortunately there was too little time for that 35-6 run that was supposed to come after it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
