WIMBERLEY — San Marcos learned early it could compete with anyone.
With teams like No. 7 Austin Bowie, No. 15 Buda Hays and Lake Travis all receiving statewide ranking mentions or actually being ranked in the top 25 in UIL 6A, the purple and white faced many tough opponents. On Friday night, they fell 2-1 to No. 11 state-ranked Round Rock in a game that came down to the final at-bat.
“It was a fun season. It was really fun,” head coach Cathy Stoughton said. “We were actually able to stay healthy this year, which was a big piece. We fell on our face a little bit early on and then things just started to click. We needed to build confidence and believe in ourselves and I think a couple of games turned a corner for us mindset-wise because we saw that we could play with any team out there. And that’s what happened tonight.”
