Bad weather April 12 forced the Burnet High School softball team to play in back-to-back contests April 13-14 where the Lady Dawgs got different results. Burnet (19-8, 5-4 District 19-4A) defeated Taylor (6-3) 6-4 one night after losing to Salado (3-5) 9-4. “It was huge,” head coach Hailey Wooten said of the win. “They could see our playoff hopes dwindling, and they knew that’s not how it’s supposed to be, not with all the potential we have. It was needed for sure.” The Lady Dawgs were able to send the…

The Burnet High School baseball team illustrated almost every emotion known in sports in a 24-hour period. One night after losing to Salado 20-3 in a contest that ended after 5 1/2 innings April 13, the Bulldogs arrived at Bulldog Diamonds for the conclusion of a three-game series with the Eagles April 14. Because Burnet had beaten the Eagles 7-6 March 18, both teams knew the winner would take the crucial head-to-head matchup that sometimes determines playoff berths or seeds for the postseason. But this time, the Bulldogs (9-10-1, 6-5…

A complete game. That’s what Marble Falls High School baseball coach Tyler Porter kept telling his players was the key to victory. He wanted to see the Mustangs (6-12, 2-8 District 25-5A) get consistent pitching and the defense make every routine play with the batters making solid contact and hitting in the gaps. Against Leander April 14, Porter got what he wanted in a 6-1 victory in a contest his team led from start to finish. “All three phases looked good,” he said. “There weren’t many walks, we had good…

When Texas A&M Company E-2 cadet Grayson Poage was told about an unexpected special ceremony at Kyle Field April 8, the freshman was more than curious about why. When he was called to the front of the gathering at the memorial site of where beloved Reveilles have been laid to rest, the 2021 Faith Academy of Marble Falls graduate didn’t know what was next. When he was told he had been selected as the new mascot corporal of the university’s adored Reveille X, he barely had enough time to process…

A decade drought of a Mustang earning a medal at the tennis district tournament ended for Marble Falls High School on March 30-31 thanks to senior Brody Knight. Knight finished third in boys singles at the District 25-5A tournament and had a shot at advancing to the Class 5A Region IV tournament in a playback match. Knight, who was seeded No. 4, lost to the eventual district champion but hadn’t faced the players pitted against each other in the other semifinal. So when the player who beat Knight in his…

A pitching change and timely hitting with runners in scoring position helped Georgetown High defeat the Marble Falls High School baseball team 5-4 April 12. “The start was great,” Marble Falls head coach Tyler Porter said of his team. “Our Achilles’ heel is we always seem to give some back. That was one of the most complete games we’ve played.” The Mustangs (5-12, 1-8 District 25-5A) couldn’t have started the game better. Pitcher Bryson Atkinson forced the Eagles (19-3, 7-2) to go 3 up, 3 down in the first inning…
