San Marcos Academy (14-1) dominance on offense for the duration of district play put them in position to receive a bye in the first round of the TAPPS playoffs. The week off didn’t stop them from opening the second round against Houston Lutheran North with a 6-1 victory at home Saturday afternoon.
Head coach Corey Schade was pleased with the first-round bye in order for his team to fully get back to practice and return some injured players.
“We know right now we have to win four games — well three now to win state — so that was going into our mindset whether we have the bye or not,” Schade said. “It just gave us a couple of extra days of practice and let us get healthy. This is the first time we’ve been healthy in about two or three months.”
