San Marcos head coach Cathy Stoughton said she hasn’t had many teams that are as resilient as this season’s squad.
That was seen Tuesday night, as the Lady Rattlers outscored New Braunfels inside the San Marcos softball stadium during the final 6.5 innings. But a five-run opening frame helped the Lady Unicorns remain in front all game, as the visitors defeated the hosts, 8-4.
“I think sometimes, we come out and they don’t have the confidence that they should,” Stoughton said. “We had a couple of rough games. To open district, we had a really rough game (against East Central) and I think that really took the wind out of our sails. It was a really tough loss. And then to be with Judson, 1-1, and then to have that one bad inning, it seems like, from there, we’ve kind of got into a little bit of a tailspin confidence-wise.”
