Here’s where Clark teams stand following the Spring Break:

SOCCER

The boys’ District 28-5A champions finished the season with a win over Holmes.  With their highest national ranking (#20 ESPN) of the season, the Cougars head to the first round of playoffs against CC Carroll on Tuesday in Corpus Christi.  They’re picked as a favorite by the Express News to make it to the regional playoffs.

The girls finished with a decisive win over Holmes.

BASEBALL

The Cougars beat Warren 7-2 and pounded Central Catholic in a non-district game.  They currently are 4th in the district race.

SOFTBALL

The girls lost a close one to Taft.  They’re also currently 4th in district race.

DISTRICT CHAMPIONS!

With two games left in the season, the boys varsity soccer team clinched the 28-5A title with a win over Warren 2-1 Friday evening.  Jair Rodriguez and Johnny Lawson both found the back of the net in the win.  Ranked #28 in the nation by ESPN,  the Cougars still have two regular season games left before playoffs begin.  The next is Friday against Taft.

The girls tied Warren on the same evening 0-0.  The tie eliminates them from this year’s playoffs.  Their next game is against Taft.

Javors and team top of district race

The Clark Cougar boys soccer team posted a 3-2 win over O’Connor, securing their 11th district win as well as at least a share of the District 28-5A title.  Evan Javors, Johnny Lawson and Jair Rodriguez each put one in the net for the win.  The Cougars next play 2nd place Warren on Friday and a win would give them the district title.

The softball team was also victorious on a cold and windy evening, defeating Stevens 4-0.  Henessey Soto pitched the shutout, Meagan Martinez hit a two run double and Rochelle Nash crushed the ball for a double.

The baseball team lost to Stevens and the varsity girls’ soccer team also lost to O’Connor, eliminating them from the playoffs this year.

It was a busy weekend in Clark sports.  Here’s what happened if you missed it:

Miller places at State meet

SWIMMING

Chelsea Miller, a senior who was the lone Cougar represented at the state meet, placed 8th in the 100 yd. Breast Stroke.  Following graduation, Chelsea can next be seen swimming for Boise State.

BASKETBALL

Cougar seniors end season in Buda

The Bi-District champion boys basketball team finished their season with a tough loss to Austin Bowie 69-56.  The Cougars lead after the 1st qtr. 14-11 after jumping to a 9-2 start.  The 2nd qtr. was mostly Austin Bowie until a flurry of  three pointers by Manny Paz y Puente and Sam Perez brought the Cougars from a deficit to taking the lead into halftime.  The second half, however, was all Bulldogs.  The Cougars finish with a District Championship, a 15-1 district run, a 29-7 overall record, and a bunch of fans who were proud of their efforts.

SOCCER

The boys team came back from a 0-1 halftime score to defeat Jay in the final seconds of the game, 2-1.  They are now 10-1-1 in district and nationally ranked at #34 in the nation by ESPN Rise and #10 in Texas.  The girls team also defeated Jay 1-0.  The win puts them in the playoff chase still, although a couple of other dominoes have to fall their way in order for them to make it to the playoffs.  With four games left, a loss or tie would most likely eliminate them from the first round of playoffs.

BASEBALL
Playing in the Northside tournament, the Cougars went 2-3 against opponents.  The culprit seemed to be cool bats after an 18 run explosion in a win against Roosevelt.  Their record is 3-3 and 1-0 in district.

SOFTBALL

The girls went 1-1-1 against competition in the NEISD tournament.  Overall, Clark Cougar softball is 6-5 and 0-1 in 28-5A.
