San Marcos stifles Knights comeback for win

San Marcos captured their third straight district win of the season as the Rattlers knocked off the Cibolo Steele Knights 5-3.

Despite a sluggish start, starting pitcher Gavin Gomez pulled through going 6 innings while allowing just five hits, no earned runs, one walk and throwing 11 strikeouts.

“I started off slow and felt a little bit tight in the first couple of innings,” Gomez said. “I was frustrated in the beginning, but I finally found it. Once I found it, it didn’t go away.”
