Texahoma
South Texas’ stranglehold on the top two spots continues for another week as No. 1 CC Carroll and No. 2 Calallen now sit at an impressive 33-0 combined. No. 3 Klein Collins is still playing well and looks poised to jump up ahead of either of those teams should they slip up, but to this point the opportunity hasn’t presented itself.
Edmond Santa Fe (OK) jumps to No. 6 in the region after ace RHP Ty Hensley had one of the most impressive individual performances of the young season Monday, throwing a no-hitter with 13 strikeouts to just one walk while going 2-for-2 at the plate with a hit from each side (including a no-doubt Home Run from the left) in a five inning 11-0 win at the Coach Bob National Invitational in Phoenix, AZ. Santa Fe did lose a couple of games in the tournament with their pitching spread thin, allowing idle Owasso pull ahead in the see-saw battle for the top spot in Oklahoma.
The top ranked team in north Texas, Rockwall-Heath moved up a spot after an emphatic 9-0 win over crosstown rival Rockwall this week to move up to No. 6.
