It was opening night in 6A District-27 softball Tuesday as the San Marcos Lady Rattlers (4-9, 1-0) escaped with a 4-3 victory over the Schertz-Clemens Buffaloes starting district play with a bang.
The Lady Rattlers, led by freshman ace Adelaida Sierra’s complete game and six strikeouts, the strong hitting of senior catcher Jessica Deleon and senior Kayli Saenz who each had two RBIs, and senior Brycelyn Pinales’ clutch defense, San Marcos squeezed out a one-run district home win.
“They (Clemens) were a good team and we have been battling through some adversity, untimely injuries, fatigue, and we really needed this game,” said Lady Rattler head coach Cathy Stoughton. “We hit the ball tonight, moved runners when we needed to, and Addy was great in the circle.”
