Evadale wins 6-5.

[Rebel Yeller]

With the win the Rebels have wrapped up the district championship in baseball and complete the year long sweep as they have won district in Football, Basketball, Track and Baseball. Evadale stands at #3 in the UIL running for the Lone Star Cup awarded to the school that has the most success throughout the entire year when it comes to UIL accomplishments. They are 2 points out of 2nd and 6 points out of the lead for the cup.

The UIL awards points for each level that the school advances in UIL competition. For the 2010-2011 school year the Rebels have the afore mentioned boys district championships. To those you add girls volleyball and basketball. The football team ended as a Regional quarterfinalist, basketball as a state semi finalist, track finished 2nd in the area meet last week and has a number of participants advancing to regionals. The girls volleyball was an area finalist and basketball was a regional quarterfinalist and the softball team is going to the playoffs as the #3 team from district. The baseball team is hipeing to repeat its run towards state once again in baseball and has a 12-0 record in the district with 2 games remaining.

I toot the Rebel Express' horn often on SETX, but it is hard to argue with the success of the last year. especially on the boys side of the ledger. Last year in baseball State Runner Up eliminated by state champions; Windthorst, this year Football - quarterfinalist eliminated by the evential state champions; Falls City, Basketball - State semi finalist eliminated by (on a bad call that should have sent the game into overtime) state champions; Clyde Eula and still in the running to make a run back to state as the #5 ranked team in the state in baseball this year.

It can be said that if you play the best it tells you alot about your team and in the case of the Rebels the only teams that have stood intheir way for about a year have been state champions and who knows maybe the Rebels have a chance to add that behinf their name in baseball this year. We will have to wait and see...
