Friday sports

If you slept in on Thursday, you missed a heck of a baseball game as Martin topped LBJ in 11 innings.

It was an awesome game, as the Tigers won as LBJ missed a cutoff throw that allowed Charlie Cruz to score from third.

The pitching and defense was excellent. There were only 16 hits in 11 innings.

In what was only a non-district contest, the game surely served as a fine tune-up for the continuation of today's district games.
