Game notes:
Calvert has a special team this season. It was a good opportunity to host them. They dominated on the boards. They limited us to one shot and offensively they had multiple offense rebounds. They scored most of their points in the lane.

Yeguas 41
Fayetteville 28
Points:
Brandyn Carter 11
Arvis Burns 9
Herschel Conway 6
Jesus Espinoza 5
Verkobe Woodberry 4
Gardner Shivers 4
Dominic Tucker 2
Game Notes:
Tonight we were able to beat Fayetteville at their place despite multiple team players. Arvis Burns, an all- Brazos county player, only played 3-4 minutes of the 2nd half. So it was a great opportunity for our players to step up in a road varsity game. With Arvis out junior Verkobe Woodberry was the only upperclassman on the court for us. He provided the leadership we needed. Our sophomores (Brandyn Carter, Jesus Espinoza, & last season new-comer of the year Dominic Tucker) all played very well for us. Brandyn led us in scoring and showed flashes of how talented he is. Jesus & Dominic controlled the paint for us. Our two freshmen (Herschel Conway & Gardner Shivers) both played a lot of minutes and really stepped up. Gardner did a little of everything for us and Herschel made two 3s & provided some good defensive pressure.
Next game
12-8-20 We host the #1 pre-season 1A team according to Dave Campbell's Texas Basketball magazine Calvert.
We look forward to the challenge. It will be a rematch of last season's tough OT battle at the Bremond Tournament championship game.
Thank you.
