Faith Academy of Marble Falls boys basketball players Brock Davis and Case Coleman were named to the small private school all-state team by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches. The honors are the latest for the duo who led the Flames to another undefeated district season and the second round of the playoffs. “(Their coaches) nominate them, and they get voted on by a separate committee,” head coach Zakk Revelle said. “I nominated those two. I knew they’d all get TAPPS all-state. All the other accolades play a part.” Junior…

Welcome to this weekly column where readers will find a summary of sports across the region and the impressions left on this writer. The week is big for the Burnet and Marble Falls high school track teams. Both will be competing at area meets with athletes aiming to get to regional meets. Pole vaulters on both squads advanced to area meets, which might be the most impressive finishes of the 17 events at district meets. And that’s saying something particularly in north Burnet County, which we’ll get to in a…

The Faith Academy of Marble Falls baseball team battled some early adversity against Bryan Allen Academy for a 15-0 win April 14. The Flames (6-2, 4-0 Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools) needed four innings to enact the run rule and got another stellar pitching performance from sophomore Kade Shaw. Shaw gave up 1 hit and 3 walks and struck out 11. But Shaw faced five batters to begin the game, while the Flames went three up, three down with three strikeouts in their half of the opening inning.…

Going into the District 3-2A track and field meet of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools April 11, Faith Academy of Marble Falls was the favorite to continue a tradition head coach Steve McCannon doesn’t take for granted — winning the championships. The Flames took 14 of the 17 gold medals, including in the 4×200-meter relay and in the 400 meters, to earn 271 points for their fourth district championship. The Lady Flames earned 240.5 points en route to their third consecutive district title and 12th overall. The…

Flames enjoy another lopsided victory in shortened contest

San Marcos Hill Country hosted senior night before the start of its baseball game against Faith Academy of Marble Falls April 8, so the Flames braced for the Rams’ best effort. Needless to say, Hill Country found few answers thanks to sophomore pitcher Kade Shaw, who led the Flames (5-2, 3-0 District 3-2A Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools) to a 16-0 win in a contest that ended after three innings. Shaw had an in-park grand slam and finished with 5 RBIs. Carter Fromberg and Dylan Offutt each had…

Welcome to this weekly column where readers will find a summary of sports across the region and the impressions left on the writer. Let’s begin with what I believe is the most anticipated contest of the weekend in north Burnet County. It’s the Burnet High School girls soccer team against Bay City in the Class 4A Region III semifinals. The contest kicks off at 11 a.m. Friday, April 8, in Katy. Bay City, like Lumberton and Lake Belton, are district champions. But don’t discount the Lady Dawgs. Here’s why. Burnet…

Welcome to this weekly column where readers will find a summary of sports across the region and the impressions left on this writer. The big news in south Burnet County is at 2101 Mustang Drive where Marble Falls athletics director and head football coach Brian Herman is replacing offensive coordinator Heath Hohmann and defensive coordinator Zane Bode. Both are leaving on their own. Hohmann accepted the job as athletics director and head football coach at Skidmore-Tynan, a Class 2A school, while Bode, in his words, retired to “become a cowboy.”…

Opening loss doesn’t discourage Faith

The Faith Academy of Marble Falls softball team began the 2022 season with an 18-10 loss to Concordia Christian School on March 7. The Lady Flames (0-1) committed seven errors in the contest. Concordia scored 14 runs in the fifth, sixth, and seventh innings after trailing 7-4 in the fourth. Head coach Delaney Ferguson noted the players will need time to improve. “We have a young team,” she said. “Some have been playing softball for years, some haven’t played in years, and some haven’t touched a ball in their whole…

When the Faith Academy of Marble Falls baseball team trotted onto the YMCA of the Highland Lakes field for its season opener March 4, few knew what to expect. And yet no one expected what they saw. The Flames crushed Bulverde Living Rock 15-0 in a contest that ended after three innings because of the run rule. Sophomore pitcher Kade Shaw threw a no-hitter and struck out eight batters and walked three. Offensively, junior Justin Mottle had 4 RBIs. Faith head coach Zakk Revelle noted that Living Rock wasn’t at…
