8 Friday at Reed Arena-Texas A&M thoughts?

Fairfield is well coached. Gatesville may be the sleeper in the region. Should be a great game.

After their run in district this year I wouldnt call them a sleeper more like one of the top 4 or 5 teams with a chance to advance to Austin. I would consider us more of a sleeper right now. Worley and Merrick and the guys just keep finding a way to pull out close games ( a knock on the Eagles hoops program in years past was the inability to win a close game)

In my opinion in region 3, they are a sleeper. Silsbee, HJ, Mexia, Crockett, etc... Fairfield will give them all they can handle.

Tradition my friend, tradition.
