Regional Return

Harper Lengefeld, above left. narrowly missed a trip to state two years ago as a freshman with a third place finish in varsity girls singles at the regional tournament and was sidelined last season due to a back injury. The Hamilton High School junior made a triumphant return last week in Weatherford, claiming a district title without conceding a single set. Following a first round bye, Lengefeld defeated her semifinal opponent from Lipan 6-0, 6-0 and proceeded to win the championship match over Sophie Osborn of Hico in two by scores of 6-0, 6-0. This year, the top three finishers will advance to state from the regional tournament.

Fair Park Dogs to honor teachers, encourage little leaguers

Teaming for 15 hits, Hamilton’s baseball squadron took just five innings to complete the victory. Ridge Lasater, Brazos McGregor, Madden Weaver and Easton Marwitz each collected multiple hits.

Junior pitcher Bethany Thompson, pictured delivering high heat from the circle in Bosqueville, has been a steady force on the mound for the Lady Bulldogs. The Diamond Dogs fell to 0-10 in district and 7-19 on the season after dropping games to Jonesboro and Bosqueville last week. In Jonesboro, the Lady Dogs jumped out to a two-run lead in the top of the first inning. The top-ranked Lady Eagles answered with eight scores in the bottom of the second and added three additional runs in each of the third and fourth frames enroute to a 14-3 victory.
