Fargnoli's stand up triple

8 in a row. 4 by 10. 10 hits.  Any way you look at the numbers, they add up to a 10-2 District 28-5A record, 2nd in District and #6 in the city.  The Cougars walloped the” John Jays” 13-3 (an original term from the greeat guys at Clark Texas Football Club).  The Cougars jumped on them early with a 6-0 lead after two innings.  Carl O’Neal once again went the distance for the win.  Several players hit including Jonathon Fargnoli who started a double play in the fourth, tripled in the same inning and then finished the Mustangs off with a double in the fifth, ending the game as the ten run rule was reached.  Next game is a big one against district leading O’Connor on Tuesday.

Vincent Salazar pitches to victory

The Clark Cougar varsity baseball team won again.  This time it was the Marshall Rams who took the beating, losing to the Cougars 4-1.  Vincent Salazar went the distance and got the win.  Joseph Ybarra and Trey Doebbler took the Rams deep with the long ball. The Cougars also earned a #6 ranking by the Express News thanks in part to a win streak that now totals seven in a row in District 28-5A.

The Cougars softball team knocked down Marshall by a margin of 4-0. Megan Aragones was on the mound for the win and  Aragones and Christina Rodriguez contributed runs in the victory.
