diverdo: I agree that the final of the Gator Cup was an excellent game between two very good teams. I was not trying to take anything away from the Mandeville team. I felt the game was fairly even and realize that both teams were tired with Mandeville having played more games in a shorter time frame. My comment was strictly about my own teams inability to take advantage of their opportunities. We have done a great job of limiting our opponents opportunities on goal and have outshot our opponents in every game this season until the St Louis game at the Showcase....but we need to develop that killer instict where we will do anything and everything to put the ball in the net. I don't think we have that yet and we squander a lot of quality chances. I apologize if my statement was taken the wrong way. Mandeville is a quality team and will be dangerous come playoff time.

Results from the Pine Tree TX Tournament
Caddo Magnet 1 Whitehouse TX 3
Caddo Magnet 0 Pine Tree TX 0
Caddo Magnet 3 Jacksonville TX 1
Caddo Magnet 3 Nacogdoches TX 1
We had a rough first game and looked rusty after 3 weeks without a game. We had several good opportunities in front of the goal and could not convert. Whitehouse was the TX state 4a champs last year but Pine Tree Tx was the best team we played this weekend. They beat Whitehouse 4-1 and advanced to final after we drew with them 0-0. We had a chance to beat Pine Tree with 30 seconds left but had a 30 yd volley come off the crossbar. As the tournament went on our possession and finishing improved as we finished out with two 3-1 victories.
Overall a good weekend to get us ready for a 3 district game week. The TX teams all had good ball control and several players with excellent dribbling skills. Hopefully playing these quality teams will go a long way in preparing us for the playoffs.

What would happen IF Magnet beats Byrd 1-0 in their next game (assuming Magnet & Byrd win the rest of their games). Would there be another game for the district championship?

They will have a shootout at the end of the match to determine the #1 seed for the playoffs. They would be co-district champs.
