H5AB 2007 All-Houston-Area First Team announced
Langham Creek defeats Katy 6-0 to close out great Tiger season
In a hard-fought series that show-cased some of the best area, if not national talent at the high school level, Langham Creek pitching ended up carrying the Lobos to a 2-game sweep of the Katy Tigers in the Region III quarter-final match-up on Friday evening. An overflow crowd witnessed the 2 nationally ranked teams battle to determine who would advance to the State Sweet 16.
Through 3 innings, the game was a pitchers duel between Katy's Carter Jurica and Langham Creek's Corey Maines, with both pitchers facing just over the minimum, but it was the Lobos who broke on top in the 4th inning with 3 unearned runs, and then added 3 more runs in the final 3 innings to defeat the Tigers 6-0. Jurica went the first 5+ innings, then was relieved by Keifer Nuncio in the 5th. The duo struck out 9 Lobos, scattering 7 hits, while Maines went the complete game for Langham, only giving up 3 hits and striking out 2 to gain the victory. Jurica, Andrew Stumph, and Kyle Canales collected the only Tiger hits.
Finishing this season with a 32-5 record, coupled with last year's 37 wins, makes this senior class the winningest 2-year class in Tiger history. The loss concludes a great season for 15 seniors, many who will move on to play at the next level. Our sincere thanks and appreciation goes out to these fine young men and their parents who gave of themselves for these past 4 years and created memories for all of us that will not soon be forgotten.
Our 2007 seniors are :
1 - Josh Tovar
2 - Bret Atwood
3 - Kyle Canales
4 - Carter Jurica
5 - Michael Fuda
7 - Pat Gorman
8 - Michael Sauceda
9 - Ryan Nietsche
11 - Tim Yager
12 - Andrew Dresden
13 - Robby Bishop
14 - Daniel Schram
16 - Zac Murray
23 - Aaron Daab
25 - Nick Pepitone
