Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Well preview tonight at Valley high school we play at 9:00 against South Webster. GO INDIANS !!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Boys did ok at there preview . Coach honored his seniors and started them which was a cool thing to do for them. Webster is very big and very good but in the second quarter we played them to a 16-16 quarter very impressed with the two freshmen Shanks and Brewster last night. Brewster gave us a post presence we haven't had in quite a few years scoreing,rebounding, and blocking or contesting shoots in the paint . And Shanks played beyond his years like a Shanks does very high basketball IQ for a 9th grader. I'm telling you guys stick with and behind our team this year were going to be fun to watch and only get better as the year goes on there's still 2-3 freshmen that are pretty good you didn't get to see last night . Were getting there. GO INDIANS !!!

Well the Indians open up with East this Friday at home . East has a 6'10 kid and Craiger who is a first team all-league type player. Should be interesting to see how the tribe attacks the Tartans. I'm hopeing the boys come out on fire and start this year with a big "W".

This will be a good game to see how competitive Western will be this season. Sounds like with the talented youth in the lower grades and the exchange student, they have the potential to make some noise.lightle04 wrote:Well the Indians open up with East this Friday at home .

Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
I hope so. But if they are competative is my main concern right now and hopefully they get better as the year goes on
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Great win boys the first one is the hardest to get. Shanks played awsome as well as Grooms and Ross I bet as a team between Lightle,Shanks, and Ross they probably didn't have 8 turnovers . We left some points at the foul line tonight as well. But a great win none the less keep it up boys !! GO INDIANS !!!!!

The boys played great defense holding Craiger to like 3 . The Bias kid hurt us 6"10 and he didn't miss hardly any shots I had him down with 21 pts . We're very proud of the boys.

Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Boys looked real good last night. Almost like they were gonna win or bust. Was impressed by the Shanks kid going hard against the 6'10" manchild. Like lightle04 already said, boys left too many points at the stripe for my likin', but coulda just been 1st game jitters. The Reserve squad looked real nice to. The Riggs kid and Garritt kid both looked good. Great job boys! Keep up the hard work.
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
The Tribe is going on a hound hunt over at Manchester. The hounds are comeing off of a great season last year and figgure to be a contender in the very tough SHL. So come out and watch Chief Jordan and his young Indian tribe try to steal a win and maybe a scalp or two . GO INDIANS !!!!!!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Tuff one for the tribe tonight they got handled but this ones over time to focus on Fridays game . GO INDIANS !!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Well hear we go on the war path again the tribe heads south to Clay after a humbling loss Tuesday the young Indians need to focus on getting this road win to go 2-0 in conference . Should be a fun game hope everyone can make it there . GO INDIANS !!!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Clay has a beautiful school. Hate to have to beat them in it . Hope to beat them anyways.
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Well we had a mental break down up 4 with 4:00 left we attack the rim , miss player rolls his ankle on the play and is subbed till the 1:37 mark during that time we take 4 straight 3's miss them all they come down the floor hit 4 straight 3's and that's the game. It would be easy to get on the boys for attacking to score but the fact of the matter is the boys are learning how to win . They were attacking like they were behind cause that's how it's always been , them behind and needing to score. Don't worry fans after last nights game they have learned to not force it when ahead because the pressure is on the other team to catch up. Look for this game to make us a much better team in the future. GO INDIANS !!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Ok guy the Tribe welcomes in Green Friday at home. After the little mental lapse that cost us a road win or at least contributed greatly to the loss the Tribe is looking to get a few bobcat skins and get back on the winning path. Shanks comeing off of a below average performance and Lightle's right sprained wrist about compleatly healed and comeing off a decent game. Looks to be a very winnable game for the Indian Tribe! GO INDIANS !!!!
Re: Western basketball 2011-2012
Well after a big win at home the young tribe look a little nervous going into Peebles and took a hard loss. Forget that game boys and move on your in the tuffest stretch of you schedule . This where you will be tested as a "TEAM" if you stick together and keep learning or when the road gets tuff alot of young teams point fingers and buckle under the pressure. I know you guys will have a chance in the next few game to learn ton from Coach Jordan that will prepare you for a strong run at the rest of the season. Don't be influenced by outside opinions have each others backs and I think you will be surprised by the outcome. Let's go boys you can do it GO INDIANS !!!!!
