There are only two teams left in Class 3A Softball, and Hudson is one of them.
After a 5 to 2 semi-final win over West High School yesterday in Austin, the Hudson Lady Hornets play for the state championship tomorrow.
With a day off in Austin I'd have the urge to hit about five mexican restaurants for queso and burritos, but something tells me the Hudson team will avoid that. Rest up today and drink those protein shakes ladies!
I came across this video on YouTube when I was searching for NBA Playoff Highlights, and I’ve probably watched it a good 10 times!
Now that the 2011-2012 college baseball season has ended for the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks, it’s time to welcome the summer with some fun, instructional camps.
The SFA Baseball Camps cover all phases of the game, regardless of skill level, and allow the necessary repetition time to see improvement in every skill. The day camps focus on hitting, pitching, defense and other offensive skills that will prepare the camper for competition.
Golf goes something like this: slice, bad shot, terrible shot, decent chip, missed putt but a little closer to the hole, and then finally that dang ball finds its way and sinks into the hole. It doesn't usually happen exactly like that for Tiger Woods, but for many east Texas weekend golfers (myself included) we hack our way down the fairway and after the ball has had enough, it finally goes in.
We keep playing not because we're awesome, but because it's fun, and because every once in awhile we hit that one great shot. How did we do that again?
Regardless of our golf ability, we're all invited to play on June 11 at Crown Colony Country Club. It's for a great cause.
On top of Josh Hamilton’s big night, the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks baseball team was able to get some screen time on SportsCenter‘s Top 10 Plays as well.
Left-fielder Rene Moreda got the No.2 play on SportsCenter’s Top 10 on Tuesday night at Reckling Park in Houston, for making an incredible catch in left field during their non-conference game against No.8 Rice.
Texas Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton hit four home runs in his team’s 10-3 win against the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards on Tuesday night. Hamilton became the 16th player in Major League Baseball history to accomplish the feat and the first since Carlos Delgado of the Toronto Blue Jays on Sept. 25, 2003.
Every year, thousands of young women try out to become a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. Most of these ladies are in their 20′s and late teens, perhaps a few in their early 30′s, but Sharon Simmons of Carrollton, Texas is trying to raise the bar.
Simmons is almost 56 and a proud grandmother.
The fact that Matthew McConaughey is a huge Texas Longhorns fan has been no secret, and now he’s offering the chance to sit with him at a game this fall. You’ll be in Matthew’s suite!
Matthew is a diehard Longhorn fan, so be prepared! It may get intense. You would get to take a friend or sig other with you to observe the madness, so you'd have someone with you who could snap the pictures for Facebook. How jealous would your friends be? Unless they’re Aggies of course.
Next week you may be seeing college t-shirts everywhere in Texas.
Next Friday, May 4 is the second annual GenTX Day, when students across the state spend the day surrounded by people wearing college t-shirts. You'll see college t-shirts at the office and at stores and restaurants, and even teachers and staff at schools will trade the business casual clothes for big bold letters and mascot faces, all to support life after high school. All who wear the gear will be sending the message that a college education is a good investment. How does it work?
The Texas Rangers are on the road this weekend at Minnesota, and the Houston Astros are playing in Miami against the Marlins. Have you seen the way the Marlins have been introducing their players? They're accompanied by women dressed as Latino showgirls. You won't see that everywhere. But we digress.
There's plenty of great softball and baseball to watch right here in East Texas this weekend.
But wait…there’s more!
And that’s not good news for ousted Arkansas football coach Bobby Petrino.
As Jimmy Carter revealed on our sister station KICKS 105's the Merrell in the Morning show, apparently, Petrino has had another mistress from the past, a former Miss Bikini USA winner and model for Motorcycle Mania. Check out Alison Melder’s pictures after the jump.
