The La Grange baseball team snapped a three-game losing streak with a 16-6 victory over Manor New Tech Tuesday at home. “Feels good, feels like this one got us back on track,” said La Grange’s Kadyn Hall, who pitched the complete game.

The Fayetteville and Round Top-Carmine track teams competed at the District 29/30 area meet Monday in Runge. The Fayetteville boys and the RT-C girls won team titles. The Fayetteville girls were second in the team standings. The top four finishers in each event advance to the regional meet at Challenger Stadium in League City on April 23-24. Below are the county regional qualifiers:

Round Top-Carmine track standout Ilse Salinas recently competed at the district track meet at Fayetteville and earned herself a total of five first-place finishes, which include the long jump, triple jump, 100-meter dash, 4x100 team relay, and 4x200 team relay.

The No. 1-ranked Round Top-Carmine baseball team beat Richards 14-0 Tuesday.

La Grange played host to what may have been its first lacrosse game Sunday as the Central Texas Renegade Warriors with players from Austin, San Antonio and New Braunfels faced the Houston Metro team. La Grange proved to be a nice neutral site for the teams to travel to. “The teams really liked the park and traveling to LG and are thinking of doing more out here,” said La Grange’s Dr. Russ Juno, who knew one of the game’s organizers. Lacrosse is the oldest organized team sport in North America and originates from a game played by Native Americans. Players use the head of the lacrosse stick to carry, pass, catch, and shoot the ball into the goal. There are college and pro leagues of the sport.

Above are the team photos of the La Grange boys and girls track teams. The La Grange boys won their fourth consecutive district title two weeks ago (hence the No. 4 all the boys are holding up on their fingers). Meanwhile the La Grange girls were second at district as a team but had area qualifiers in every single event. Those area qualifiers (Top 4 finishers in each event) will compete this Wednesday in Giddings at the area meet. The top four finishers at the area meet advance to regionals. Photos by Jeff Wick

The La Grange baseball team’s dreams of a district title this season probably came to an end last week, as they were swept by Giddings 18-6 on Tuesday and 11-0 at home Friday. The Leps then lost to visiting Anderson-Shiro 9-4 Saturday.

The No. 1-ranked Round Top-Carmine completed the district sweep of Fayetteville with a 6-4 win over the Lions Friday in Carmine.

The La Grange softball team won a pair of district road games by a combined 49-0 last week. Thursday the Lady Leps went to Austin and defeated LBJ 27-0.

On Sunday, April 11, Flatonia’s Izick Hernandez signed his letter of intent to play football at Texas Lutheran University. Izick was a big piece to the 2020 Flatonia Football team which won the Bi-District for the 6th straight season.
