[RBARKER]

Should be a good seris I don't know much about Bellville except thie real Good. BH has an awesome pitcher in Chandler Hall that has thrown 2 no hitters in the playoffs so far. The BH defense is stout as well. Hitting so far has been enough to win, bu tnot outstanding. Should be a low scoreing pitchers dual. Goodluck to both teams, look forward to seeing BH and Bellville in football next year.


Go Eagles!!!!

I've been told it's at Cy-Fair high school.
Tomball has both baseball and softball teams still in playoffs and didn't think they would have enough workers at field.
Still 6 and 8 o'clock Friday. Not sure of time on Saturday for third game if necessary. I've been trying to find schedule in writing from official source. I got it from my daughter after softball practice yesterday.
The Bellville high school website has very little detail about team, RBARKER.
Team is 26-3. Three losses all to 5A teams. Biggest strength of team has been pitching and defense. Four different pitchers have recorded wins this year. Senior Emily Shadow, Jrs Brittany Pieper and Lauren Luetge, along with Freshman Allysa Murphy. Hitting has been good at times, but not always consistent. Expect a low scoring series.

Sorry for double posting, but I did see on Barbers hill website location for softball games have officially been changed to Cypress Fairbanks high school just off highway 290. 6 and 8 friday night and 2 o'clock saturday if necessary.
Hey, Rbarker, how many girls are still left on BH team from 2 and 3 years ago? Bellville beat them in area round in 2003 and Barbers Hill returned the favor in 2004. Two hard fought series. Bellville has two seniors that started both those years.
When the districts were revamped last year, it changed the brackets around some. Nice to renew old rivalries.

Classy post from Bellville when you guys make the trip next year in Football we will have to meet. bellville seems to have great tradition and competes in every sport. It's a tough lose but congrats to Bellville on a good year. Splendora is next for the Hill and BH hasen't beat them yet. Hopefully the third time is a charm.

[Brahma73]

Somebody explain to me why Bellville's freshman - clearly the ace of the staff - only pitched 5 innings in the two games.

Congratulations Barber's Hill.

Thanks for a great season, Brahmanettes!

There were more people without seats at this game, over half the Bellville crowd watched the game from outside the left field fence. Ticket sales could have been good tonight if all the spectators could have fit in the stands!!!!

[3afan]

blame the coach for that - they agree on the venue ....

[Johnny Utah]

Blame the coach! Come on man!! It is the playoffs!!! 4th round draws big crowds, get there early and get a sit, or you will have to stand outside and watch!!!

[Bull's-eye]

There wasn't any seats behind home, each team had only one set of stands. Some people paid money to sit in the stands, but had to go out and sit in the outfield. Being the 4th round, you think they would of found a field with more seating. :thinking:

Congratulations to Barbers Hill!! Bellville's volleyball team had to defeat a very good Barbers Hill team on it's way to a state championship, so hopefully it's the Eagles turn to return the favor. Good luck and best wishes in your quest for the state championship. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Just a few notes about last night's games. I was a little puzzled when Bellville replaced their freshman pitcher. It looked like we had quite a pither's dual and game 1 was headed to extra innings.

Barbers Hill's pitcher had great control of the strike zone and got many Bellville batters swinging at pitches outside or in the dirt. She usually stayed ahead in the count and when Bellville laid off the outside pitches, she would throw strikes with authority. The first and third basemen did some damage with their bats and the whole team played excellant defense.

The defensive gem of the night was a over the head catch by the Bellville's center fielder. She robbed at least a double from one of the Barbers Hill's batters. Great catch!! :clap: :clap:

My last softball post of season. Congrats and good luck to Barbers Hill and the remainder of the "elite eight" remaining in 3A.
Problem with having several good pitchers like Bellville does is no matter which one the coach pitches, someone will question the decision. If you spoke to the crowd before game, you'd get three ideas about who should have started the first game. Freshman did great and maybe she should have stayed in to be given the chance to win, but if she gives up winning run, then the question from someone would be, why is a freshman in the game at crunch time when you have two upper classmen warmed up. No win situation (unless you do actually win).

Having only one very good pitcher like BH does makes the decision easier. BH pitcher figured out early which Bellville girls were freeswingers and worked it to her advantage. There were some girls she got out all night and probably never threw a strike to.
She also was the one who hurt Bellville the most with her bat, at least in the second game. She had the triple in first inning of second game with her courtesy runner then scoring. And she had a big hit in the second inning when BH scored three runs to make the score 4-1.
BH hitters were well disciplined and schooled on what to do with inside pitches. Bellville pitcher in second game hit three batters when they leaned in and turned to get hit, including two in the big three run second innning. Batters basically were able to take away the inside pitch as an option.
Both teams made a couple fielding/throwing errors but also made some great plays. The catch by Bellville centerfielder was excellent.
I've said several times in past there are a lot of good teams in 3A and you not only have to be good, you have to be a little lucky. BH had a couple seeing eye ground ball hits and another bloop single mixed in with other hits while Bellville was either swinging at pitches outside the strike zone or when they hit the ball, a lady eagle was usually there to make the play.
Lady Eagles' baserunning was better, bunting was better, batters were more disciplined and pitching more consistent. You can say this pitcher should have started or stayed in or whatever, but the simple fact is the Lady Eagles executed better overall than the Brahmanettes. You can't blame that on Bellville coach or give undue credit to BH coach. All the coaches can do is prepare girls, but girls still have to make the plays in game.
