trueblue82 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Am I the only one who wonders why the UIL continues to schedule the Region 3 tournament for somewhere in central Texas when there’s almost nothing but East Texas teams playing in it? For two years it was at Leon. Now it’s in Bryan. They obviously don’t look at what would be convenient for parents and fans of these teams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

action10 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 For many years it was held at SFA, nice venue, large enough, plenty of parking and reasonable amount of hotel rooms and places to eat. Make no sense to hold it at a small venue, far away from hotel rooms and food service. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geographically, it would make as much sense to hold it at Joaquin. Maybe none of the schools in the Lufkin/ Nacogdoches area have bid on it recently, and the places out west have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot more hotels and restaurants in bryan/college station... Population in nac is 34,000 population in bryan/college station is 259,000. But i agree that is should be held some where in east texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topher805 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Sounds like Grapeland found some offense in the fourth quarter. Either way, congrats Shelbyville on another berth and great job Sandies on another stellar season. Maybe we can get together again next year. Same time, same place? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t make much sense lovelady is on the far west of region 3. And have to drive a hour west of us. I’d say nac or lufkin would be better for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Dragons can make it back they have 3 returning starters all out front. Will be losing 2 in the middle. Still should be in the mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigj Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I can see both being back. I can see Grapeland in the regional finals for the next 6 years easy. Height and talent all the way down to 5th Grade. They have alot of ballers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergton Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Fun fact Grapeland had 6 points at half both this year and last year in regional finals against Shelbyville. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
