In a tight, early-season series between two the Gulf coast’s elite teams, hits were scarce and errors were prevalent. But the Victoria College Pirates found a way to get it done, earning a series sweep over a Gulf Coast South favorite UT-San Antonio.

Kingwood looked good early against Houston, scoring an 11-1 win over Houston (D2) in Game 1 but dropped a hard fought Game 2 by a score of 3-1. Sunday saw 12 walks doom the Coyotes when they dropped Game 3 12-6.

The LSC-Montgomery Mavericks are off to a 4-0 start this season after sweeping both ends of a doubleheader with D2 opponent Rice. The Mavs were led by Bryan Fox at the dish (4-7) and Esteben Fuentes on the mound (2 saves). The Mavs appear to be rolling heading towards conference play in a few weeks.

Sam Houston State had a tough opener last week, but that didn’t get the Bearkats down. The Kats used remarkable performances from Hunter Pirtle and Dane Blackwood to capture both ends of a doubleheader against Lee College. The day started with Hunter Pirtle’s perfect game bid which got within 3 outs of becoming the unthinkable ended when Dane Blackwood went deep for a Grand Slam in extra innings.

Scott Hankosky’s LSC Montgomery team is known for getting off to great starts to the season and this season will be no different. The Mavericks opened up the 2013 campaign on Saturday against a University of Houston club ranked #15 in the D2 poll. The Mavs swept both ends of the double header thanks to Stephen Crawford’s efforts at the plate and Cody Carroll’s pitching on the mound. The Mavs will get a chance to improve their 2-0 effort this coming weekend against local opponent Rice University.
