The CC Winn Lady Mavericks advanced to the 2016 Bi-District Playoffs with a convincing 4-0 whitewash of the Somerset Lady Bulldogs Friday night at Foster Veterans Memorial Stadium.
Jocelyn Lopez notched her third hat trick of the season with three goals and senior Marbella Rosas, Winn's answer to Marigol, hit a masterpiece from thirty yards out with a left-footed shot that found the top left-hand corner of the net at the end of the second half.
The Lady Mavs travel to Floresville on March 24th to face Victoria East at 7:00 PM where goaltender Stephanie Hernandez will try to hang another zero on this side which is the class of District 30-AAAAA.

-Uvalde
The stage was set. In one corner was Winn freshman Diego Ibarra with five consecutive Top Ten finishes including two big wins in Laredo and at the Del Rio-Laughlin Invitational. In the other, Uvalde's Clayton King, reigning District 29-AAAAA Champion. The scene? The Uvalde Memorial Golf Course, King's backyard and a glorious setting to prepare for Alsatian in two weeks, a neutral site for these two golfers who are beginning to play their best games at the right time.
With King, a junior quarterback for the Coyotes and the son of State Representative Tracy King, shooting 75 on Day 1 and not penalized by the lightning delay where many, including Ibarra were instructed to log Bogies on their scorecards for the last two holes of play due to inclement weather, it would come down to Day 2 to determine the winner of this, the final warm-up before district.
King would come out of the chute with five birdies and an amazing 30 on the Front Nine extending his six shot lead. He would hole first putts on four of those five holes with an uncanny knowledge of the greens and a silky smooth left handed putting stroke reminiscent of a Phil Mickelson or a Bubba Watson.
But Ibarra would not go down without a fight nearly Eagleing the Par 5 10th hole on both days. He would go on to outshoot King on the Back Nine by one stroke on Day 2, but it was a little too little, a little too late as King would go on to shoot a -6 under 66 to win the tournament. Ibarra closed out the day with a season low 76.
United's Sam Sanchez and Joel Alfaro would be a couple of shots ahead of Ibarra who notched yet another Top Five finish placing fourth.
Next up for the Mavericks is the District 29-AAAAA Tournament at the Alsatian Country Club in Castroville, March 22nd and 23rd.
