The Lady Rattlers played their most physical game of the year inside the Snake Pit Friday night.
San Marcos fell 57-56 to 2021 UIL 4A state quarterfinalist Geronimo Navarro (21-3) in a game that included a plethora of bodies on the floor, fouls, steals and blocks.
“I knew, (and) our girls knew that they were going to be a good team. They're regionally ranked, they’re ranked in 4A, their record is solid, they've won some tough games, they’ve blown some people out. So we knew what they were,” head coach Jermaine Ervin said following the loss. “They're fundamentally sound and they key up, they key in on what their coach tells them to do. So we know exactly what we were in for. We just weren't aware of the physicality element that we were going to have to deal with. But I thought we made a pretty good adjustment at times.”
