The Silver & Black Attack CC Winn Mavericks defeated the visiting LBJ Wolves by a score of 14-4 on Friday at the EPISD Sports Complex.

LBJ jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead in the top of the first, but Winn responded with three of their own when Leo Lopez reached on an error followed by a hit by Luis Ramirez who has been stinging the ball as of late.  Another Maverick who absolutely cannot be contained has been Ricardo Gonzalez, the fabulous freshman who has been torching District 29-AAAAA pitching.

After Lopez was driven in on Gonzalez' singel, Carlos Barrera cleared the bases with a one out triple into deep center field to score Carlos Cerezo and Gonzalez to put the Mavs up 3-2 after one.

It would be up to Maverick hurler Antonio Longoria to hold off the purpe and gold and indeed he did allowing no runs on only one hit through the fifth.

The Mavericks generated four more runs in their half of the second when Christian Perez got on with a single, Ivan Lopez drew a walk as did cousin Leo to load the bases and a run would score on a bases loaded walk to Ramirez.  Ricardo Gonzalez would drive in two more with a hit and Cerezo would score yet again on a wild pitch to make it Winn 7 LBJ 2.

Coach Gene Flores reached into his bag of tricks and scored a run on a double steal which plated Perez when Jonathan Villarreal drew the lBJ defense into him to give Villarreal the opportunity.

The Mavericks continued their onslaught in their half of the fifth on a two out error which put Leo Lopez on base, then Villarreal doubled to score Lopez and Isaac Banda drilled a hit to score Villarreal.

  The Mavs put the game away in the sixth with another barrage of offense when Ramirez led off with a hit, Gonzalez got on on an error, Barrera continued his tear with yet another double to score Cerezo for his third run of the game.  Big Reick Perez came through for the Mavs when called upon with a hit to drive in Ricardo Gonzalez.  Juan Elizondo who came home on another delayed steal to seal the deal 14-4.

Longoria gets his first district win of the season as the Mavs travel to Laredo on Tuesday to face the loop-leading Laredo United Longhorns.

Top hitters for the Mavericks were Carlos Barrera who went 2 for 4 with two doubles, Ricardo Gonzalez 2 for 2 with five runs attributed to his production, two scored and three driven in, Christian Perez 2 for 4, Jonathan Villarreal 2 for 4 and Erick Perez and Isaac Banda 1 for 1.
