LA COSTA CANYON HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

Playing in the final game of the series and of the 2010 Season, the Mavericks wanted to beat the boys from Torrey for many reasons... a perfect league record was at stake, a chance to sweep another series, a chance to extend a two-month long, 23 game winning streak - but most importantly it was another opportunity to beat arch rival Torrey Pines.

Neither team scored in the first, but LCC scored three big runs in the second inning.  Torrey also scored to keep things interesting.  From there, the Mav's added another run in the third then both teams scored in the sixth inning.  Two key double plays by the Maverick defense shut down drives by the Falcons.  The Mavericks won the game with a final score of 5-2.  Solomon and Balderas were the big hitters for the day with three hits each.

Colin Winters started and got the win, giving up just one run in four innings.  Carter Johnson spelled relief and got the save.

With this victory the Mav's finish the 2010 season with a final record of 31-2, and an Avocado League record of 15-0.  A few statistics for the year:

• 12 Runs Scored Per Game (average)
•  3 Runs Scored By Opponent Per Game (average)
•  9 Run Differential Against Opponent
• 2.1 Average Earned Runs Given up Per Game
• 48 Home Runs Hit By The Team
