Hudson takes wild 29-19 win to advance past Waco Robinson By Gary Willmon The Lufkin Daily News Saturday, May 12, 2007 HUDSON — After playing more than six hours of baseball and watching 67 runs cross the plate, the Hudson Hornets survived to advance in the Class 3A baseball playoffs by beating the Robinson Rockets 29-19, capturing the area championship in a marathon Game 3 at Gipson Field Friday night. By virtue of winning Friday's battle of attrition, the Hornets move on to this week's 3A regional quarterfinal round where they will face either Gatesville or Groesbeck. The playoff schedule has yet to be determined. After beating Robinson 9-1 on Thursday, the Hornets dropped Friday's opener when the Rockets staged a seventh-inning rally for an 11-8 decision. Then Hudson fell behind 9-2 in Game 3 before storming back to take the wild and crazy 29-19 win. Friday's playoff doubleheader took six hours and 17 minutes to complete. The final out was recorded at 12:27 a.m. Saturday. Hunter Rowe, usually the Hornets' catcher, had to be called into service on the mound in Friday's finale, and he responded with 4 1/3 innings of adequate relief while his team charged back on offense to overtake the Rockets. "There were so many ups and downs, I don't know what to think right now. Our kids showed a lot of character — having the game, then having it taken away from you, then getting it back again — it's really something special," said an exhausted Hudson Coach Glen Kimble after the marathon effort. Aaron Jarvis ripped four singles in Game 3, driving in four runs. Rowe had a triple, a double and a single for Hudson while Jeremy Pounds had two doubles and a single, Jeremy Murphy had a double and two singles, and Daniel Musick chipped in with three singles. Nick Rhodes contributed with two singles, and Bobby Byrd, Wayne Ramsey and Jake Wood added a single apiece. Robinson ripped Jarvis, Hudson's Game 3 starter, for nine runs in the first two innings, taking a 9-2 lead. But the Hornets refused to fold their tent, rallying for six runs to cut the lead to 9-8. After the Rockets upped the margin to 14-8, Hudson stormed back once again and eventually caught and passed Robinson, taking a 16-14 lead. From there, the Hornets stretched their lead out until finally winning by the 10-run rule in the sixth. In Friday's first game, Hudson was two outs away from sweeping the series in two games, leading 8-7 in the top of the seventh. But Robinson pinch-hitter Taylor Groves belted a three-run homer to right-center, and the Rockets tacked on another run on an RBI-triple from Blake Vincent to pace the Waco-area team to an 11-8 triumph in the contest. The lead changed hands five times as Hudson scored three in the first for a 3-0 lead before Robinson rallied with two runs apiece in the second and third frames for a 4-3 margin. Back came the Hornets with two runs in the bottom of the third for a 5-4 edge before Robinson pushed across three tallies in the fourth to grab a 7-5 lead. Hudson scrapped for three more runs in the bottom of the fifth, wrestling an 8-7 lead which stood going into the top of the seventh before Groves' blast turned the tables. Groves' home run was one of four in the game as the Rockets and Hornets ripped two roundtrippers apiece. Pounds had a mammoth two-run home run to right field in the game to go with a double and a single. Rhodes added a two-run homer to dead-center field to go with a single for the Hudson effort, Rowe had a ground-rule double and a single for the Hornets, Murphy had a double and Byrd added a single. Aside from Groves, Robinson got a home run from Seth Mogavero, who also clouted a triple and a single in the game. Matt Walker and Boone Weiss each had a double and a single, Vincent tripled, and Taylor James and Rowdy Hurst each had a single. Vincent tried for an inside-the-park homer on his seventh-inning poke to the left field fence as Byrd fell down in trying to make the pickup of the baseball. But his throw to Rhodes at shortstop was relayed on a line to Rowe at the plate, and the peg was in time to nail Vincent for the third out in the inning. Hudson used Musick, Murphy, Chris King and Jarvis on the mound in Friday's opener while Robinson pitched Walker for the first five innings and Weiss for the last two frames.

Game 1 Sunday afternoon.

Yes. There's a thread about it on here somewhere.

Correct. 2 more (counting this week) then the final 4 in Austin.

Let's hear it!!! I couldn't be a at every game.

:D

Mrs. Warner always brought her 'A' game Van Wade The Orange Leader Some people are always missed along the road of life. I’ve been blessed as far as getting to work with some of the finest people in the Orange County area over a lot of years. All kinds of great coaches, some community leaders and teachers and parents. Some, however, stick out more than others. Some of the best have been the likes of Tom Woolley, Bill Tennison, Dan Hooks and David Williams. Another certainly falls in that category. However, she doesn’t bark out play calls or zone defenses. She did at one time, when she was a basketball coach. The first time I saw the woman, she was wearing thick, rimmed glasses and coaching the Lady Bears basketball team in the early 1970s. I guess I knew then, that this person was unique. Her last week at Little Cypress-Mauriceville High School is this week. I’ve heard her say over the years that she was blessed with having one of the best jobs in the world. I hope she realizes how many people she’s blessed with her kindness and giving over the past 35 years. You can certainly put me in the that department. The amount of kids that Linda Warner has had an effect on reaches infinity. Well, maybe not that much, it just seems that way. When I was in school (Class of 85), everyone thought Mrs. Warner was a tough nut to crack. Some thought she was too stern but when you got to know her, she was simply good ole’ Mrs. Warner. She is all about being a part of the LC-M family. You couldn’t go to any type of sporting event without Mrs. Warner being there, giving her support and taking a lot of photos. She spent so many countless hours, hours she probably didn’t have to put in, to see that LC-M kids were taken care of, and of course, making sure they were behaving. She’s also all about her family, one she’s so proud of. Her husband, Larry, quite a gentleman. Larry was quite a coach and administrator before he retired from the LC-M school system several years ago. I still remember Mr. Warner being the only principal I ever had to go see — for throwing spitwads on a bus ride home in seventh grade. I remember Mr. Warner looking at me and saying “Van, this is totally unlike you, I’m going to let you slide this time.†I think I’ve been pretty much on the straight and narrow since. I was fortunate enough to watch her two kids grow up and become fine citizens. Larry, Jr. Yes, I remember tossing the little “mighty mite†around in a few basketball practices. I was two years ahead of him, but you knew he was going to be a competitor and a gamer, just like his parents. Larry, Jr. honored the Warners with their first grandchild, Nash, who was born in March. You should see Mrs. Warner’s face glisten every time she talks about that feat. Then there was little Miss Shannon, the cute kiddo with all of those freckles back in the day when Mrs. Warner toted her around. It was amazing to watch her grow up and I remember covering her when she played basketball for the Lady Bears. Now she is very successful in her professional life, has a wonderful husband and is a beautiful young lady. After attending the retirement reception for Mrs. Warner last week, it made me feel much older but even happier to see some “old hands.†The only teachers left standing when this 40-year old attended LC-M is Rick Dean, Tanya Barnwell and Mike Gray, three excellent folks in their own right. Everyone always has those high school flashbacks and Mrs. Warner is always in part of mine. I loved being her office aide my senior year. I was one of those kids that would always go pick up those darn attendance slips off every room in the school and return them to the office during that period. There would be times where we’d answer the phones but most of the time, it was about goofing off. Gary Locke, who was an aide with me during that period, can certainly attest to that. Mrs. Warner caught me red-handed one day, me shooting in the gym on a game day, during my aide period. She got on me in typical fashion and I deserved it. Three days later, on the next game night, she busted me again. The same thing happened the next week. I guess she just gave up but those moments made me feel like I was one of her boys. She made a lot of us feel that way. That was even more evident when a bunch of overweight, hard-breathing 38-year old gentlemen banged on the door of her home in the summer of 2005. That was our 20-year reunion weekend. It was just a day where a bunch of old basketball “giants†wanted to play some hoops and couldn’t find a gym. Mrs. Warner just simply trusted me by going to open the Bear Cave so we could turn back time one more time. She was there for our 20-year reunion, just like she was for our 10th. Being in the media, I knew I could stay in touch with the most important person at LC-M High School. If I needed a schedule, she would have it. If there were any type of time changes, she would know them. The lady simply has had a hand in everything. Sometimes I actually think the school revolved around her, that’s how important she is. She had a key chain that a 300-pound man would have problems toting around all day. She has a key to every door and every closet and probably knows so many things that probably need to stay in the closet. It’s just hard to imagine LC-M High School functioning without her. I know everyone respects her, but I think they will all have even more respect for her when that first school bell rings this August. It’s always a treat, going to back to your alma mater. It brings back old memories, especially since the surroundings haven’t changed much in the last 22 years, other than a new fieldhouse and a band hall. However, it will have a different feel to it next year. Going out to visit the coaches and kids at LC-M will be different, because that extra little five-minute trip to see Mrs. Warner will not be there. I was hoping one day our daughter Emily, who will be a sophomore next year, could work as Mrs. Warner’s aide. Now, she has to “settle†for being Vicki Castino’s manager for the volleyball team, which is not a bad gig in its own right. Many people are probably wondering why I’m dedicating this space to the sports page. Well, I guess I’ve never witnessed a more “truer “sport†than Mrs. Linda Warner. There will never be another one like her. I love you, and so do many others who have crossed paths with you on the highway of life. You’ve sent many of us in the right direction. Good Luck to you, Larry, Larry, Jr. Shannon and their spouses and spoil that grandbaby. Oh, yeah, please keep the keys to the gym too!!

They'll do fine in the Tourney.

Lamar Golf finishes fourth at NCAA Central Regional; Van Der Walt Daucy Crizer-Lamar University SID May 19, 2007 - 9:45PM SUGAR GROVE, Ill. – Junior Dawie Van Der Walt tied for medalist honors and Lamar University posted a best-ever fourth place finish following Saturday’s final round at the NCAA Central Regional hosted by Northern Illinois University at Rich Harvest Farms (Par-72, 7.214-yards). Van Der Walt, a junior from Cape Town, South Africa, carded a final round 3-over par 75 for a 54-hole score of 1-under 71-69-75—215. Dan Woltman of Wisconsin shot a final round 1-under 71 to tie Van Der Walt at 1-under 215. After making a birdie on the par-4 first hole, Van Der Walt made four bogeys to make the turn at 3-over par. He carded two birdies and two bogeys on the back nine. Van Der Walt placed third at last year’s Central Regional, so this was his best-ever regional finish. He was second in the field this week with 12 total birdies, tied for fifth in par-3 scoring (E), was sixth in par-4 scoring (+3) and tied for seventh in par-5 scoring (-4). Lamar, who entered Saturday’s final round alone in third place, came back to the pack a little bit with a final round 307 and placed fourth with a 54-hole total of 325-281-307—900, which was the Cardinals’ best-ever NCAA Regional finish. Lamar is advancing to the NCAA Championships for the second straight year and fifth time in school history. The Cardinals tied for ninth place at last year’s NCAA Championship in Sunriver, Ore. Tulsa, the 36-hole leader, closed with a final round 310 and barely held off Alabama for the NCAA Central Regional championship at 895. The Crimson Tide was second at 898, followed by Louisville at 899. The top 10 teams qualified for the NCAA Championships, which will be played May 30-June 2 at Golden Horseshoe Golf Club in Williamsburg, Va. Also making it from the Central Regional were Tennessee, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, Michigan State, Texas and Minnesota. Texas A&M was tied with Minnesota for the 10th and final spot, but the Golden Gophers claimed the spot by winning the first playoff hole. The top 10 teams from the East Regional and West Regional also qualified for the 30-team field at the NCAA Championships as did the top two individuals from each regional site not on an advancing team. From the Central Regional, the two individuals were Woltman and Tim Streng of Western Illinois, who placed third at 219. “I’m happy that we are advancing to the NCAA Championships, but I no we can play better than we did today and this week in general,†said Lamar coach Brian White. “Just like in the first round, we threw a lot of shots away today. We tried to do too much when we got into trouble today. We just didn’t respect how tough this course played. “We achieved our first goal, which was to make the NCAA’s but we fell short of our second goal, which was to win the regional. Dawie played great this week and deserved at least a share of medalist honors. We know we can play better and now we’ll have a chance to prove it at the NCAA Championships.†Oliver Bekker, a sophomore from Stellenbosch, South Africa, closed with a final round 4-over 76 and tied for 21st with a 54-hole score of 82-68-76—226. After a bogey-birdie start, Bekker made three bogeys and a double-bogey to make the turn at 5-over par. He made carded two birdies, including the par-4 18th, and a bogey on the back-nine. Bekker tied for the most eagles in the tournament with two. Dusty Smith, a senior from The Woodlands, turned in a final round 3-over 75 and tied for 21st with a 54-hole score of 80-71-75—226. He made two birdies and two bogeys on the front-nine to make the turn at even-par. His roller coaster back-nine included two birdies, three bogeys and a double-bogey. Justin Harding, a sophomore from Cape Town, South Africa, shot a final round 8-over 80 and tied for 63rd with a 54-hole score of 81-73-80—234. He final round included a birdie, four bogeys, a double-bogey and a triple-bogey. Harding tied for sixth in the tournament with 33 pars. Casey Clendenon, a junior from Katy, posted a final round 9-over 81 and tied for 82nd with a 54-hole total of 81-74-81—236. He had one birdie and two bogeys on the front-nine to make the turn at 1-over. However, he made four bogeys and two double-bogeys on the back-nine. Arkansas’ Andrew Landry, who played his freshman season at Lamar University last year, shot a final round 4-over 76 and tied for sixth place with a 54-hole score of 74-71-76—221. Unfortunately for Landry, he missed on advancing to the NCAA Championships by two strokes. NCAA Central Regional Rich Harvest Farms – Sugar Grove, Ill. Team Standings 1. Tulsa – 895 2.
