From what i read over the course of the season is they're not very big, tallest around 6'3" but plays a very fast paced game and very good shooters from their starting rotation. Defensively run or have ran a 2-2-1 full court press. Expect a high scoring game. Notice early since after christmas tourneys they were legit and had the team to make a run to state tourney.

Of their 5 losses only one is to a 2a school(SA Cole). The rest are to 5a schools. Losses are to Laredo Nixon, Hanna, Porter, Sharyland, and SA-Cole by 2pts at Devine Tournament-Warriors were up by 20 points at half-time, foul trouble aided in loss. They played in some big school tournaments to prepare for a deep run in the playoffs. Biggest player is 6'3 and was out with appendicitis earlier in the year.

They will be fun to Watch in Austin. They are high octane, push the ball, shoot the 3(lots of them) and defend from baseline to baseline. Very fun and entertaining.

And I am sure Ponder plays disciplined, fundamentally sound basketball.
