San Antonio Reagan, having lost 4 starters from last year -- especially ace LHP Casey Selsor -- has had a rough start this year. As of Thursday, it had lost more games in the first eight match-ups of the season than it did in all of its regular 32-game season last year.
However, the Rattlers did well this week. In the Boerne tournament, after shutting out Burbank H.S. 9-0 and losing to Boerne Champion 5-2, Reagan roared back with a vengeance. It defeated Killeen Ellison 16-1 and then beat Corpus Christi Calallen 3-2, avenging one of its two regular-season losses last year. Freshman Bryce Dorn went the distance in his first varsity start for Reagan, allowing only one unearned run, three hits, two walks, and seven strikeouts. With Boerne Champion's pitching staff depleted, Reagan made short work in the championship game, defeating Boerne 20-9.
Reagan, now 8-3, will begin district play this week.
