Final
Orangefield 4 Jasper 3

:( This was not to be the Dogs' year. OC was right. OF was closer to BC! Therefore, OF won! :( I always knew he was a genius! ;)

but what happened to WOS and that theory? :confused:

So that means Bridge City plays Orangefield in the next round.............omg, that's a hoot! Who'd ever figured?

Boy I missed it on the WO-S game with Lufkin Hudson. Hudson Hornets had one thing going for them and that was the ability to knock homeruns. I still think Columbus and Bridge City are the strongest around. If Barbers Hill gets to hitting on all cylinders they may upset Hudson. I tell you what, I would of rather BC played Jasper which they had no problem with in two separate games than to play OF. Clay Bougeous is a dangerous Pitcher and in a one game series can pull an upset over anyone left in Region III. In fact, I again would like to compliment Jasper in staying in a score loss of just 4-3 with OF: Jasper must have improved a lot as the season progressed to hang with OF.

No, we didn't play well, and I know in my mind we should have 10 runned ruled OF. They HAVE NO PITCHING BC, should be an easy game for the 'cards.

I guess big ole Jasper can't stand being beat by little ole Orangefield. You know what they say about excuses. If OF has no pitching then what does that say about Jaspers hitters. The OF pitcher pitched a complete game with 9 strikeouts and only 5 hits. Sounds like a solid pitching effort to me. Oh and by the way, OF had 2 runs and possibly more taken away by that horrible call at 2nd base. Just face it, the better team that night won.

No, the better team was sent home, everyone knows the reason OF chose a 1 game series is because they suck in the pitching derpartment, they have 1 guy. He is average at that, tops out at about 83 mph, that's is it. I CAN PROMISE YOU THIS OF WILL NOT ADVANCE ANY FARTHER!

So what you are saying is OF pitching sucks right, then you must be saying that Jaspers batters suck too. If they can't get but 5 hits off an "average" pitcher, then they must be just as bad as OF pitching. Get over it. The better team THAT night won.

I really don't have a dog in this fight but I have seen OF and Jasper both play several times. OF has the best team this year, Jasper had the best team last year. Who said OF has only one Pitcher? Have you Jasper folks seen their other pitching?
I think it is just hard for a big 4A team dropdown to accept the fact that OF is a growing community that will be competitive starting now and on into the future.
You could not 10 run anyone in 24 3A Mr. Jasper. I think you would have finished fifth behind Hamshire-Fannett or maybe even Hardin-Jefferson. I am sure you will recover and have a competitive enough team next season, Good Luck.

Why paint all of the Jasper fans with the same brush? 07 is in the program and is hurt over the loss give him a little slack. As far as the rest of us Dog fans we wish OF well against the unbeatable BC.

By the sound of things Jasper should count it's lucky stars that we don't have to play against the mighty Cardinals of BC.:eek: :eek: It's a good thing that OF won so that we will save the embarrassment of playing the triple A affiliate of the Yankees.:rolleyes:

Congrats to OF and best of luck against the powerhouse known as the Cardinals.

Old Cardinal

To Huper: You have always been a responsible poster on this board and it did appear that I was "paintng all Jasper fans with the same brush". I did not know that 07 was just a mad kid.
And to the last Jasper( New Caney) poster--we are no more proud of BCs hard work than you folks were last year when Jasper had a run.

Jasper did play BC over at the LC-M tournament and BC was way stronger. Again I was just backing some really nice people from OF from an open verbal attack.

Jasper was in rebuilding mode this year and it showed. We got better as the year went along, but yet still swept through our district and beat some good teams along the way. Orangefield has a good coach in McFarlin. I went to school with him and he knows what he is doing. No shame in losing to a good Bobcat team. I wish it could have been 2 out of 3 but it wasn't. I hear that Orangefield is light on pitching, but honestly I don't think Jasper's pitching is near what it has been the last 5 or 6 years either.

I look foward to seeing BH take on Hudson this thursday in BH. Going to be a tough matchup for the eagles IMO, but they can hit the fastball well.

Cat22
05-16-2005, 03:10 PM
Actually OF does have another quality pitcher, ask Huffman. I was really surprised that McFarlin did not put him in in the 7th. I respect the Jasper posters they are some of the best on this board, but I do honestly feel we had the better team. Just my opinion. Our record does not reflect how good we really are. I just hope we carry the same kind of emotion into the BC series or it could be over very quickly for us.

I honestly dont follow Jasper/High School baseball very closely, i just never got into it. But one thing that ive learned from college and MLB is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to tell the better team by one game. I dont think that the coin toss winning coach should be able to say if its a one game playoff. Good luck OF. I don't think that BC is as mighty as OC talks them up to be, and thats judging from the predictions and talk hes made over the past few years since ive been on this board.

I'll admit that this was definetly not your typical Jasper team. They were down some this year, no doubt. I've seen Jasper teams in the past that were very good, but that doesn't have anything to do with this year. Give some credit to Orangefield here. They backed into the playoffs after playing horrible in the second half of district play and no one gave them a chance to do anything in the playoffs. They beat a Huffman team that at one time early in the year was in the top ten if I remember correctly and then turn around and beat a Jasper team that no one gave them a chance to beat. They have advanced to the third round of the playoffs, that's a pretty good accomplishment in my book. Of course on paper they have no shot at beating BC, but hey that's why they play the game. Ask Huffman and Jasper how that turned out. These kids are playing on emotion right now and that can do wonderful things. They have no pressure on them in this series. All the pressure will be on BC because they have already crushed Orangefield twice this year in district and there is no way in this world that they can lose to Orangefield...stranger things have happen!!!

Good Luck to Jasper, they will be right back in the thick of things next year and they have some real classy fans that had nothing but good things to say after the game the other night.

Old Card thanks for having our back, Good Luck to your Cardinals. I just hope we can give yall a good series.

And good luck to OF this year! :)

I do not think it is in good taste for any Jasper fan to say we "should have 10 run ruled" a team after they just beat us. But I do know that Jasper last year did TWICE 10 run rule the same Columbus team that eliminated BC from the playoffs. :D

OC, I think it was YOUR comment that Jasper could not 10 run rule any team from YOUR district. And maybe you are right. But it is a fact that Jasper did last year TWICE 10 run rule the same Columbus team that eliminated BC from the playoffs. :D

Most knowledgeable people on this Board know that Jasper has plenty accomplishments THIS year to feed our massive EGOS! :D

Boy, This is always a sure way to get activity on this board--if we did not have each other to badger we would not have a lot to talk about on this board.....
It is kind of funny, just before I got back on 3A down Low, I was on the phone with a now Jasper area Buddy that shares stock research information via frequent phone calls. Most of my friends got rich down in the Triangle--then moved to swanky homes around the lakes. If it was not for Triangle money flowing up that way the economy would kind of dry up in Jasper:devil:
I am serious, Jasper area is just loaded with Triangle retired folks all around the two lakes.
I really like Jasper and think it is a good retirement area for people that can carry their money up there with them and fish a lot.

I'll never be able to figure you out OC. I can never tell if your serious or sarcastic, if your posting your opinion or trying to stir the pot.

Old Cardinal
05-17-2005, 05:57 PM
How about --all of the above. I mostly just am killing time with a fun diversion. I enjoy the banter back and forth. You can bet I stir the pot some just for the fun of it. My only hope is that I don't really hurt anyones feelings and that we are all mature enough to enjoy the suttle humor of this whole board chat thing. I think 3A down Low is good fun for all concered or it would not be such an infomative sports events avenue. I will confess that I enjoy going to see a lot of HS games and hearing the different views on what each person preceived. I also have enjoyed meeting 3A DL folks at different sporting events.

Now back to baseball--I hope Jasper makes a recovery and in the long pull it will not hurt to have to lick your wombs after this season. In life not all goes well all the time.

Been awhile since BC has been able to beat Jasper in Baseball and you sure seem to be enjoying it. :D

Seriously, I like BCs chances of winning the crown in boys and girls ball this summer, has that ever been done in the same year for the baseball and softball team from the same high school to win it all?

Old Cardinal
05-17-2005, 08:45 PM
Huper, In our wildest fantasy it would be hard to image that happening. That is an interesting question. Fact is, I have never heard of two 3A teams going this far from the same school and I have followed the diamond sports for a long time. Across our town folks are having to decide which team to watch play Friday & Saturday.
I get a kick out of the little Freshman girls on the team. The twin younger sisters of All State Pitcher Kevin Angelle--- Loren and Jenna, along with Shandi Conner are bound and determined to wear a ring this year! Just ask them! It's funny however Loren got a Grand Slam home run last Friday against Shepherd while Shandi Conner at Designated Hitter got two good hits. Jenna Angelle plays a real mean centerfield but does not play offense at this time.
Loren is a crafty player she lured them in with a couple of mock potential bunt or slaps and them slammed the ball to the fence. I don't think in their wildest dreams they(Pirates) thought that Freshman had that kind of firepower. These three 14 year old lassies started playing softball together at 8 years old if my memory serves me correctly. They played against the present Needville players in several final game tournaments many many moons ago.
Another interesting aside is that B. J. Myers one of our HR specialist and Catcher has a sister Sophomore Samantha Myers who is a great 3rd baseball and plays for a select team called Rowdy. That is tough on parents who have to decide on which game to watch. Usually they each go to a different game.
Yes, I think any school District gets excited when their teams are in the bracket climbs. Come see them play, the boys are dedicated and the Cardz Lassies are a hoot; they have a ball but play some serious offense and defense.
Those girls do some crazy things; they carry around a piece of a big model car to ingrain that they all have to put their specialized parts together to move on down the road. Meagan Godwin and Kaliegh Wallace carry the two car doors they are the Seniors.
Now this is hard to believe but the girl outfielders even catch hard thrown footballs with their gloves! This is to develop the skill to catch ANYTHING that comes your way. I thought that strange until you go to thinking of the trajectory that a softball can take when it is sliced of torqued out into the outfield.
Huper, sorry I rambled but I think you are one of the few that would understand the uniqueness of the paradigm shift that is taking place in BC with diamond sports.

As to the other statement about Shiner? I thought that MaCall Salmon had pitched Slocum Elkhart to the state 1A Championship in softball?
