The series didn't go as I would have hoped.

But I am SOOOOO stinking proud of this team.  They just never gave up... they were fun to watch.  They had so much heart.  

Started the season 7-13.
Started district 1-4.
5 of those losses were by 1 run.  Another was by 2.  

 But they just kept on working.  Grinding.  Getting better.

Then it all came together.

(6-1) to close out district.  Included a win over state ranked Hallsville.
(10-2) headed into the Hallsville series.

Was a HUGE underdog in the first round Vs. a state ranked district champ from Whitehouse.  Won the series in two games.

Was the underdog again Vs. tradition-rich Highland Park.  Split the first two games.... then over game a 4-run deficit in the 7th inning in game 3 to take the series.  Un.be.liev.able.   

It all came to and end Vs. Hallsville..... a team worthy of their ranking.  They completely shut down a Maverick offense that has been on fire for almost a month and a half.

Congrats to the Bobcats.

But wow.  What a ride.  What an unexpected ride!!!!

So proud of this team.

And Mav Nation....... WOW.  This community loves their Mavs.  Football.  Basketball.  Softball..... etc...etc... etc.

I had a Highland Park fan tell me Marshall has one of the best baseball fanbases he's seen in his 30+ years of watching Scots baseball. 

Had a Whitehouse fan compliment Mav Nation too.... both at home and on the road.  Said it was special.  Not all schools/teams have that kind of support.  He's correct.

See ya'll back on the diamond next spring!

GO MAVS GO!

Hallsville baseball takes a 1-0 lead in their series Vs Lovejoy.  They won tonight 9-8 in walkoff fashion in the bottom of the 8th inning. 

The Ladycats also take a 1-0 lead over Lovejoy with their 3-1 win tonight. 

Both series move to Rockwall tomorrow night.

Did they knock out the back wall and put seats all around?

I really don't know. I doubt it. It would be great if there were seats all the way around the court. I know one thing. They won't have the worse sound system anymore. I still wish they would have built brand new varsity gymnasiums for both schools. It looks great though.

Hallsville girl’s softball falls to Barbers Hill in the State Tournament in Austin. Congratulations on another fine season. Such consistency.

The Hallsville Bobcats Baseball team has punched their ticket to State as well.

Like the softball team, what other program in ET would you want to play for?

I’ve known Scott Mitchell a long time. Great guy. Hope the Bobcats win it.

Sorry I trailed off at the end of the thread.

It was a fun year keeping up with the races and playoffs.

A strange year for sure.

See ya'll next fall with a new thread.
