The Lady Rattlers’ 2019 season officially got underway last week, playing at two events and finishing with a 4-6 record.
San Marcos made its debut on Aug. 6 at a dual match with Bastrop and Wimberley, with the latter serving as the host team. The Lady Rattlers split the series, sweeping the Lady Bears, 3-0, then falling to the Lady Texans, 3-1.
The team then traveled to Pearland to compete in the John Turner Classic. San Marcos was swept in both of its opening games against Denton Guyer and Houston St. John’s on Thursday, 2-0, but bounced back in the final game of the day by defeating Montgomery, 2-1. The next day saw the Lady Rattlers pick up a 2-1 win over Houston Alief Elsik and two 2-1 losses against Port Neches-Groves and Richmond Foster. The final day of the tournament resulted in a 2-0 win over Mont Belvieu Barbers Hill and a 2-1 loss to Dickinson.
