Flower Mound defeats Allen 5-3. Noah Ringenberger hits a 3 run homer in the bottom of the 6th! Clutch! Big ROB comes in to close with 2 runners on and no outs! He gets the job done and the Jags live to play another round.

There are three 6-5A teams still in it to win it. (FMHS, FM MARCUS, SLC) Unfortunately, FM and SL have to play each other so someone has to go home early from the big dance! Best of luck to the Flower Mound Boys!

Congratulations to 6-5A and to Plano, PW, and Allen.

On the home front, congratulations to Coaches Collins and Allen and the Panthers....peaking at a great time! Panthers, enjoy the short ride.



PD. If you want a really good read go back to the first few pages of the 8-5A thread. Just read it for kicks, and I'm sure it made (and will make) for some great bulletin board material. Best of luck moving on.

Oh, I read the discussions Big Red -- just not as close as in past years. I think the 6-5A teams had enough motivation without additional bulletin board material....especially SLC. And at Marcus -- well, there's a new sheriff in town.

East vs Marcus <-- should be a good one. Cool


Plano East 3 - Grapevine 2

Great pitching performances by both teams
Barrentine - PE 7 innings 5 hits 2 earned runs
White - GHS - 6 innings 4 hits 2 earned runs
Melotakis - GHS - 1 inning 1 hit 1 unearned run

The difference was a throwing error by GHS 1st baseman with 2 outs in 7th inning on a slow roller between 1st and 2nd that allowed the HBP runner at 2nd base to score.

Anything can happen in a one game series.

Marcus/Plano was a terrific pitchers duel. Plano defense was grand with several double plays turned very nicely. 3rd baseman for Marcus made two great plays late in the game...1)backhand stab to end a threat in 5th 2)diving to his left and starting a 5-4-3 dp in the bottom of the 6th...that got the mo' in Marcus' direction in the top 7th.

A walk,
PB or WP ?...runner to 2nd no out
Bunt him to third
Funnel with a "base-ballsy" bunt call again to score the winning run with the infield in.

Good good game....well played both teams

Just another note...the young man at 1B for GHS made a great play on a bunt for the second out of the 7th inning when he threw out the lead runner at third (Harris). Also, GHS managed to tie the game in the 6th on, I believe, an error on a hard hit fly ball which allowed Grapevine runner to reach second and then score on a base hit. Books didnt show it as an error as they have Barrentine down for two earned runs when I think it should have only been one...and the scoreboard showed the error too. It was a great game between two well deserving teams.

I met the Coppell team and coaching staff at the Whataburger next to the Grapevine Mills Mall. I overheard there conversations and let me say that these guys were top shelf guys. No bad language, no disrespecting any other teams, players, fans etc.

I don’t know them and they don’t know me, although after that day they gained my respect as a player, dad and as a fan!

In this short amount of time they met my 11 year old son and even had him play a trick on the head coach. Nothing but Kudos’ to these guys. Don't know much about "press clipping", although I know that I’m not afraid to post my comments with my name attached. Hope you all have a good day. Coppell will be fine; these coaches do a great job.

TD... nice post... Good Luck to Heath the rest of the way...
down at Baylor, College Park beats Rowlett 6-4 in game 1.

I caught the end of this game on TSRN...
in the top of the 6th, Rowlett gets a two run triple to go ahead 4-3....then in the bottom of the 6th, College Park has two outs, and gets a break with a catcher's interference on a strikeout with two runners on to extend the inning. They take advantage and score 3 to take the lead at 6-4. Rowlett doesn't score in the 7th and goes down 1-0 in the series.

Go Eagles!
