The CC Winn Lady

Mavericks won their first district

ball game against the Floresville

Jaguars on Tuesday in Floresville.

Coach JJ Iracheta

informed The News Gram that

Floresville brought their best pitcher

to face the Silver & Black in this

very important matchup.

“They brought their starting

pitcher back, Jordan Treviño,”

said Iracheta, “It was a tough

game. We were down the whole

game. In the sixth, Anissa pinch hit

for Amy Flores and started a rally

that started our run production.”

This is how the game went

down.

Floresville scored the first

two runs of the ball game in the

third and fourth frames when

Brittany Danielle walked, stole

second, went to third on a wild

pitch and came in to score on a hit

by Amber Garcia.

In the fourth, Mariella

Uriegas also got on on a walk and

went to second on a hit by Bella

Cook and a Maverick error

allowed the run to score.

The Lady Mavericks finally

got to Treviño in the top of the

fifth when Ariana Soto was hit by a

pitch, went to second on a fielder’s

choice to sister Briana. They both

advanced on a passed ball. The

twins came in to score on a hit by

Thiana Reyes.

Then in the bottom of the

fifth, Danielle reached on a hit to

right field, stole second and went

to third on a passed ball. She would

score on a sacrifice fly by Marissa

Cadena to go up 3-2.

It was in the sixth that CC

Winn would attack and go up for

good when Anissa Salazar doubled

into right and Amy Flores would

reach on an error - scoring Salazar.

Then Ariana Soto would double

into left. Plating Flores and Soto

would be driven in by guess who?

That’s right, the other half of the

Dynamic Duo, Briana would bring

in the fifth run of the game for The

Silver & Black Attack.

Coach “Cheta” said they

were able to small ball it the rest of

the way, “Then we were able to

manufacture some runs. We built

momentum after this.”

Martha Garcia, Mia

Uriegas and Ana Lopez would

score in the seventh to make the

game 8-3.

The Lady Mavericks went

up 5-3 at that point and added three

more insurance runs to seal the

proverbial deal at 8-3.
