Baseball ends quietly for Owls

By Jeff Berger
Anvil Herald Sports Editor

Only one of four possible combinations of results from Friday’s baseball games could have ended Hondo’s season last Friday night. But that’s how things played out.

With the Owls’ loss to Pearsall, and Lytle’s win at Devine, Hondo found itself in fourth place in District 29-AAA, and out of postseason play for the second straight year.

The Owls led after four innings, but two big at-bats for Pearsall lifted the Mavericks to a 10-4 win at Bridges Field. While that was going on, Lytle was making its two runs in the first inning stand up in a 2-1 win over Devine.

With those two outcomes, Pearsall and Devine tied for first in the 29-AAA standings at 7-3 and had a one-game playoff Saturday afternoon at Bridges Field to determine the first and second playoff seeds. Pearsall won that contest as well, as the Warhorses fell by a 2-1 count for the second straight day.

Lytle finished alone in third place, at 6-4.

Hondo concluded district play at 5-5, with a 7-17 mark for the year.
