PERRIN – Jasmine Bryant is a devout Perrin fan.
Even while watching the Pirate baseball team fall into a 26-0 hole Friday evening to visiting Alvord, Bryant continued to root on her schoolmates. The support clearly worked as the hosts responded late to finally get on the scoreboard and take a slight amount of pain out of the eventual 26-4, four inning setback.
A schedule for the District 7-3A Track Meet was released Tuesday. The event is scheduled Monday and Thursday at Jacksboro’s Tiger Stadium.
Field events and running prelims will be held Monday, April 1. Running finals will take place Thursday beginning at 5:30 p.m.
Monday’s varsity schedule
Jacksboro is getting used to late offensive explosions.
Growing pains are frustrating.
You outhit your opponent, you make fewer errors than they do ... and somehow they manage to get a victory on the road against you. Such was the case of Jacksboro’s baseball team Tuesday evening.
Jacksboro is hosting its first of several track meets this season Thursday with its annual Invitational. The schedule is as follows:
Field Events:
3:30 p.m. V Girls Shotput
V Boys High Jump
CHICO – RW Aldridge has developed a talent few pitchers, even in the majors, have mastered.
Perrin’s junior pitcher had no trouble picking off Chico baserunners Friday evening, nailing four runners at first base in the game. The Dragons, however, got enough timely hitting to take control early and post an 11-3 victory over the Pirates here.
PERRIN – Perfection is considered by the number 300 ... at least in bowling.
Perrin Softball Coach Ben Staggs reached “perfection” Tuesday afternoon with his 300th coaching win, an 18-0 District 21-A opening victory over visiting Graford. Staggs admitted his career has been far from perfect, but he was glad to open district action on a high note.
