The #3 Texas Tech Red Raider continued their winning ways this weekend after taking 2 of 3 from the #18 Texas Longhorns. Game 1 was won by the Raiders behind another Ryan Canak double digit strike out performance and the hot hitting of Luke Wadley. Game 2 was a Longhorn victory on the shoulders of a dominant 2 hitter from Clay Modgling. Game 3 was an 8-4 Texas Tech victory to seal the series win and move their record to 5-1 on the season.

Baylor opened up its season with three straight 1-run victories over Lone Star College – Kingwood. Game 1 was won on a walkoff single by freshman Logan Trent who had 3 of the 4 RBI’s in the game. Game 2 was just as close with Baylor making a great defensive effort in the 7th to strand Kingwood’s tying run in scoring position. Game 3 saw Kingwood come storming back from a 6-2 deficit only to see the tying run stranded in scoring position in the final inning once again.

LSC-Montgomery started the season 6-0 and elevated themselves into the 25th spot in the latest voting; however, LSC-Tomball was able to cool the Montgomery bats this weekend and take both ends of a doubleheader. The Montgomery Mavs were led by Colby Felton at the plate and Jorge Huerta on the mound.

12 Teams from the Southern, Northern and DII conferences will converge on Mesquite, NV next week to play in the annual wood bat Swing Into Spring event.  For most teams this is the only opportunity to get some green grass under their feet before they start conference play later in the month.  The annual event is a 4 game guarantee for all attendees and gives teams a chance to prepare for the season.  Check out the event website at www.swingintospring.weebly.com

Congratulations to Cal Poly for winning the Carnival Classic over the weekend in Santa Barbara.  In a very competitive field, the Mustangs showed quality depth winning 4 of 5 games in route to the title.  Good hitting and solid pitching led them to wins over UCLA, UCSD, USC and a nail bitter over UCLA in the championship game 8-7.  CAL was the only team to slow the Mustangs on their way to the title.  With conference play starting to heat up, Cal Poly made a statement in their quest to reach Las Vegas

2012 World Series stand out Ryan Canak of Texas Tech wasted no time going to work in 2013. Canak tossed 7 innings for the win in his season debut and struck out an incredible 14 North Texas batters. The Red Raiders also flexed their muscle at the dish behind the bats of Glen Morrison and last year’s Region hitter of the year Luke Wadley.
