Notable players of the game were Marshall who hit for the cycle and Jarzombek who went 6 innings pitched, zero earned runs, zero base on balls and seven strikeouts.

On Thursday March 9 the boys traveled to The Shelton School to play the second game of the series with Dallas Covenant. After the score being 0-0 through two innings the Mustangs put up nine runs to walk away with the win 15-2. Sophomore Marc Jensen went 2-3 with a double and a single while also throwing a complete game of 6 innings and eight strikeouts getting the win for the Mustangs. Heading into the next week, head coach Brady James said, “This week against POPCS is a big week for our district standings. If we want to win a district championship we need to take care of business and sweep these guys. Our boys are well prepared and if we play how we should, it will be a fun week.”

The Mustangs will play their next district series against Prince of Peace Christian School on March 14th at home and March 17th away.
