Flatonia making nice run in baseball
Bulldogs baseball is on the cusp of a state title run this year with division one talent and a program that has been in this position before. Flatonia found themselves in the playoffs last year as well with players such as Texas A&M baseball commit Titan Targac. The lefty can throw it hard with movement, locate his pitches, and also gets the job done at the plate with his bat. Targac can throw high heat but his off speed pitches are his bread and butter as he puts ton of movement on his curve ball to keep hitters off balance. He can also blow it by with his fast ball, likely reaching somewhere in the mid to upper 80's and maybe even the 90 mile per hour range.

Fayetteville whomps Medina by mercy rule in area playoff
WIMBERLEY – Fayetteville baseball took on Medina High School May 10 and won handedly by a final score of 18-0 at Wimberley ISD Fields in an area playoff bout. The Lions had the bats going for the entire game and didn't allow anything on defense and at the mound. "On the pitching, our game plan coming in was to have Jack go and then Chance. Get him an inning and Keagan an inning. They all pitched really well. It looks good going forward from here. We played excellent defense. I don't know if we had an error. We made some good plays. Hitting wise, we talked about being right off the bat. The top of the first inning, let's show we're the better team and we did. Kudos to our guys, they did a really good job at the plate being disciplined and taking what they give us." Sophomore pitcher Jack Schley started the game and pitched three strong innings while connecting with his bat also. "I think it's great everything's falling in line during this time of year," Schley said. "Our bats are hot right now, our pitching's great, we're all finding the zone well. With that type of playing, hitting well and pitching well, we'll be a tough team to beat." Fayetteville took a 5-0 advantage in the top of the second inning and added to their lead with a base hit to left field from Schley to drive in a run and make it 6-0. Schley then advanced to third on a pass ball before being driven in by Chance Konvicka on a sacrifice fly to centerfield, putting it at 7-0. Medina struggled to get the ball across the plate in the Lions' following at bat and Fayetteville took advantage by scoring a few runs on a bunch of pass balls to take a 9-0 lead in the very next inning.
