It will be a historic day for San Marcos Academy as the Bears will host their first playoff game in nearly 20 years in the Area Round of the TAPPS Division IV Playoffs against First Baptist Christian Academy in Pasadena.
Breaking a 20 year drought, starting pitcher Nick Graham is happy to be a part of the team that broke the streak.
“It means a lot to us,” Graham said. “I have been here for three years and I’ve seen teams come through here. This is probably one of the best teams I have been on. We definitely deserve it considering the amount of energy and effort we have put into this season. Even though it’s a shared title, it’s a district title in the end. To bring a home playoff game to SMA for the first time in 20 years is definitely a highlight in my career here.”
