Somone Is Reading

I thought people stopped reading my blog but I got a nice comment from someone named Robin Welch. Thanks for reading Robin Welch your comment is much appreciated.
The reason I am not covering the McHi series with Reagan is because The Monitor is on a strict no-traveling-out-of-the-Valley policy at the moment. It is something that has nothing to do with me or the sports department. This was a decision made by the higher ups and our corporate offices in California.
Believe me, I wish I could have been out there covering it but I am just not allowed. If you would like to know more, feel free to call me and I will direct you to the proper person who will explain the situation.
We undertand it is important that is why we made arrangements to have the series covered by one of our stringers. Erik Quintero has been writing for us for months and his story will be on rgvsports.com and on the front of The Monitor sports page.
If they win the series, I will cover the Bulldosg through the week again and then we will do our best to make sure they will be covered next weekend.
Hope to here from you again Robin Welch.
THE GAME
The Bulldogs just keep surprising. I think it would be one of the biggest upsets in Valley playoff history in any sport.
I know Harlingen South made it all the way last year but I am not sure anyone the Hawks beat to get there was as highly ranked as Reagan is. If anyone knows, please let me know. Also, the Hawks were a senior ball club and the Bulldogs are very young.
The Bulldogs still have a lot of work to do. Last year, they won Game 1 of their reginal semifinal but lost Games 2 and 3 the next day.
In case you missed it, here is the story that ran in The Monitor today.
Here is also the story from the San Antonio Express News.
All the young guys came through again for th Bulldogs. Sophomore Alvaro Moreno was solid on the mound. Freshman Armando Garza was 2-for-3 and feshman Omar Pompa, the coach’s grandson, had a big two-run producing single.
The Bulldogs are going to be good the next coulple of years.
TRACK & FIELD
While I was surfing the Express News Web site I ran into this story about Weslaco girls track coach Pablo Almaguer.
