The Eagles started off strong, quickly shutting down the Wolves at the top of the 1^st inning, bringing in two runs with a homerun by Monica Flores. In the bottom of the 3^rd the Lady Eagles demonstrated their ability to work as a team stealing both second base and home plate in a great play by Melanie Mendoza and Krystal Perez, bringing the number of runs to 3, but they didn’t stop there. Another homerun by #8 Vivian Ramirez, followed by three more runs for the Eagles, brought the count up to 7 runs at the bottom of the 4^th. The Lady Eagles proved too much for the Wolves to handle as the game was called due to the 10-run-rule in the middle of the 6^th inning.

            Coach Alfonso Calderon, of the LBJ Wolves, stated that “Eagle Pass has always been good” and that the Lady Wolves “didn’t hit as well as [he] would have liked”. The Wolves are currently 0-2 in district wins. Coach Ruiz, head coach for the Eagles mentioned that they were feeling pretty confident, stating “how you practice is how you perform and we practice like champions”.

Now, 3 and 0 the Lady Eagles have a busy week next week as they hit the road and move on to play the Laredo United Longhorns on Monday March 10^th, the Del Rio High School Rams Wednesday March 12^th and a three day tournament from March 13^th to March 15^th in San Marcos, Texas.
