By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter The month of April now has no error room for the Bobcat Baseball team after dropping two games in the closing series of March against the Little Rock Trojans. While their overall record stands at a decent 15-11, the 4-5 conference record and type of losses incurred are painting an indecisive picture. The tumultuous series was defining for the Bobcats' bouncing nature in one aspect […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter It was the middle of March and all was trending in favor of the Bobcats in the beginning of their Sun Belt series. Through the latter half of March, however, the Bobcats have gone 4-5 marching through mud, now standing at an overall record 14-9-1 and have a dangerous precipice of dropping into the obscurity of Sun Belt mediocrity. Correcting the slide begins by chipping […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter The interior battle of schools only separated by several miles of I-35 was a highly anticipated match for good reason. Both the University of Texas and Texas State have baseball teams with very similar statistical output and projection in their appropriate conferences. Thus, to win these kind of games, the batting lineup and pitching must equally create leverage plays by putting runners in advantageous stacks […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter Heading to the coast this weekend to play the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers was destined to be a dubious process of outscoring one another; and as destined, the fireworks were in full display. Only the Chanticleers posted the one-sided display, outscoring the Bobcats 26-6 using the fabled slugging percentage power to win all three games. The Bobcats’ process was a tedious picture with brevity in batting […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter Success in baseball comes with the rewards of receiving higher accreditation and ranking. The flipside of success is more attention, pressure and duty to hold up to that ranking. Standing at 30th in the nation, the Texas State Bobcats have the unheralded opportunity to create separation inside of the Sun Belt Conference by playing the 27th ranked Coastal Carolina Chanticleers – an opponent comprised of […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter The weekend series featured a double header against a team of power hitters – a Coastal Carolina Chanticleers team looking for ownership in the opening Sun Belt Series. The tension heading into the series could have resulted in tightly wound play creating sloppy mistakes. The resulting series, however, was a mix of tension, relaxation and then a game hinting at the underlying efficiency play the […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter The Bobcats baseball team had the duty of continuing to climb the Sun Belt mountain this weekend. Playing the Appalachian State Mountaineers was about the endurance and finding identity at the play; getting the job that needed to be done, done. And in that sense, the Bobcats not only swept the Mountaineers, but came away winning in season long implications. The batting lineup was successful […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter Bobcat Softball Riding Wave into Coastal Carolina Standing strong at 19-7, and 2-0 in Sun Belt play, the Bobcats softball team has been taking care of their fundamentals in the past several games. Going 2-0 against Georgia State, including a 5-4, 10-inning boxing match, was another display of grit. Beating Incarnate Word and Baylor were slow, controlled climbs in which the Bobcats battled in their […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter Early season victories and calculations will deliver season-long expectations. After going 2-0-1 against UC Santa Barbara, then beating rival UTSA 5-2 on Tuesday night, the Texas State Bobcats evidenced they can win games they should. The challenge, however, shifts to now beating Appalachian State University in the opening Sun Belt series. There is a dual narrative at task here. First, not falling to the mental […]
