The bats were humming again at the Northside Field this morning as the Clark Cougars defeated South San 10-8 in their second game of the round robin NISD tournament. The afternoon, however, wasn’t as kind as the Cougars lost to MacArthur 8-4. Hunter McFall and Trey Doebbler each hit home runs against the Brahmas.

Mattson greeted after HR

Seven runs, including a solo home run by sophomore Braden Mattson in the 4th inning, were not enough to beat Central Catholic in the NISD Tournament.  The final score was 7-7, because of game time limit rules in the tournament.  The Cougars, based on tournament rules, got the win.  Several pitchers took the mound for Clark.

The Clark Cougars softball team doubled up on Brandeis and won 4-2.  Henesey Soto got the win and Christina Rodriguez hit a solo home run in the fifth to seal the victory.

The Clark varsity baseball team opened district competition against Brandeis and put it to the Broncos, 14-0.  Joseph Ybarra hit two home runs and Carl O’Neal and Ryan Skowronski both took the mound for the Cougars in the victory.

District play for the Clark Cougars in varsity baseball and softball gets underway with games against Brandeis Tuesday night.  The softball team already has wins against Harlandale, Galveston Ball, Temple and Ft. Bend Kempner.  Christina Rodriquez went 3 for 3 in the game against Harlandale.  Scores are available on the SOFTBALL page.  In the Express-News pre-season Baseball Scouting Report Clark seniors Joseph Ybarra and Trey Doebbler were dubbed “Players to Watch”. Ybarra is a 1st baseman and Doebbler plays at shortstop. Good luck in district to the ladies and the men’s teams!
