Buddy Carlisle, the current basketball coach of the Clear Creek Wildcats, is continuing the legacy that was begun way back in 1953 by his dad (George Carlisle) at Webster High School. From that 1953/54 team of 'Cats until the present day, the basketball program has enjoyed great success with the teams winning 70.4% of their games against top-flight competition throughout these 53 years. We should be proud of the accomplishments of both the coaches and players from all those teams down the years. Buddy has compiled the coaching stats for those teams and we are happy to publish those in the blog for all to enjoy. Especially check out the Grand Total over the 53 years at the end of the stats. Amazing! Thanks, Buddy, for these stats and the fine job you continue to do at the Creek.

70% for over a 50 year span has got to rank among the elite programs of all times. But does it? How do we Wildcats really compare. That's a great posting, Ed and Buddy. Now we need an expert Googler, or whatever he would be called, to surf the internet and come up with some of the great high school records of some of the renown coaches. But don't look at me. I get lost out there and sometimes can't find my way home.

Has anyone wondered how we were bi-district champions in 2000 with an 11-22 record?
Posted by: Dan Jensen | January 29, 2006 at 07:55 PM
It did cross my mind when I was typing in the records the other day. What is the story? Inquiring minds want to know!

I'll let Coach Buddy Carlisle answer that one.

Paul Hackett has recently been chatting with Lynn Davis, Terry Mathis, a couple of Lenoxes, Frank Goodman and me and he played on the 1966 team that lost four games, not the three as reported in this thread.
Here is his report: "I want to make a small correction...the 1966 team actually lost 4 games. Tx City...pasadena...memorial...marshal"
The San Antonio Marshall game was for the state championship. We had the game in hand late but a couple of steals tied the game and we lost in overtime.
I thank Paul for this attention to detail and reminds me of another thread on this blog when several season records were wrong.

It is funny how certain things stick in your mind even afgter all the years. The reason that those losses stuck in my mind were that each one had its own set of circumstances.
Memorial was the eventual 4A state champion that year and had a Great Team and they were 10 deep led by Jerry Kroll who played his college ball at davidson.
The Pasadena and Texas City games stuck because they were two games where we clearly underperformed against teams that simply were not as good as were.
Both losses were intournaments. Shortly after losing to Texas City in their tournament, we beat them soundly...20 plus.
Marshall and Creek were really a couple of evenly matched teams. Marshall had wayne Doyal who was a fine fine player who had impressive statistics as a twenty plus scorer. There were other good players on that team but none with wayne's offensoive ability.
our team on the other hand had multiple scorers. Bill McGuire was virtually unstoppable inside with good strong post moves and a soft hook shot. Kent Rindy was the 3rd leading scorer for the season but led all scorers during district play.
It was a wonderful season...maybe except for Sundays when Coach Krueger and coach Neil would drag thos3 9 chairs.

We had to forfit 9 gamed in 2000 because we had an out of district player on our team. So we forfited 9 non district games.
