Bluekatts open up season with big win
3/10/2010
We opened up district Tuesday with a big win. We played Comanche at home and run ruled them in the 5th inning 14-0. Rynn Norris was the winning pitcher and Ashley Grissom was the catcher. Rynn saw 16 batters, 10 strikeouts, 1 base on balls, 1 hit and no earned runs allowed. Great job defensively by the young ladies, we are becoming very solid defensively. It is extremely hard to stay focused and I was very proud of our concentration and patients at the plate. We play Thursday & Friday in the Eula tournament and our next district game is Tuesday in Dublin and Friday Bangs at home.

Bluecats Star Season With Loss, but Tack On Win in Second Game
3/5
/2010
The Bluecats lost to Eastland 13 – 3 in their first game of the Eastland Tournament. We played very well for 4 innings. Reid Needham pitched a solid game only walking 1 and striking out 4 in 4 and 2/3 innings. Leading hitters were Zach Doyle (2-4) and Tanner Brooks (2-3).

The Bluecats won their 2nd game against Dublin 11 – 7. Austin Smith pitched an excellent game striking out 14 and only walking 2 in 8 innings of work. Going into the top of the 7th we were down 7 – 5 when freshman Anthony Thomas hit a base hit up the middle to score Colton McConathy to make the game 7 – 6. Thomas then stole 2nd and then advance on a ground ball from Shelton Zarate to 3rd. Trent Hambright singled to score Thomas and tie the game. Defense held Dublin in bottom half of the inning. The first 3 batters reached on base in the Top of the 8th and McConathy singled to score Sanchez, Lefevere, and Brooks. McConathy later scored on a wild pitch. Smith struck out 1 and Jonathan Sanchez made two nice plays at short stop to end the 8th inning and the game. We are starting to hit the ball better but we are struggling making plays on defense. I was very proud of the way we fought back to get the win. The Bluecats will play in Eastland at 1:00 on Saturday for the consolation game.

Dual Practice Tennis Meet
By Coach Sandra Edington
2/25/2010
The Coleman High School Tennis Team journeyed a short distance down the road to Santa Anna for their first outing of the year. We are a young team after graduating 10 seniors and have 4 seniors on our team to carry on the leadership responsibilities. Our team captains this year are Tori Valdez and Trey Casey who set a very good example by having a good showing against some strong Santa Anna
players.

Other players that exhibited improvement were Dallas Horton, a 3 year veteran, Andrew Isom, in his second year and the outstanding hussle of Gabby Roberts who played doubles with Cheyenne Casey and then Nancy Barrios. Watching the faces of first year doubles team Nancy Barrios and Raven Diaz win against their opponents 4-2 gave them a tremendous boost of confidence. Others making the trip were Sydni Stevenson and Bryauna Guerrero who have come out for their first year of tennis.

Our next practice meet will be this Thursday, February 25th, 4:00 at the city park courts with Cisco. This is a change in our schedule due to bad weather coming in on Tuesday. We would appreciate your support by coming out and watching our team show their skills in tennis.

Lady Mountaineers Fall to Gordon
Submitted by Becky Martin
2/17/2010
In a tough bi-district match up Santa Anna lost to the Gordon Lady Longhorns 62-46. Santa Anna got off to a good start by hitting five three-point shots in the first quarter. Despite the hot start Santa Anna was able to only establish a 22-20 lead by the end of the quarter. Gordon then built up a 35-30 lead at halftime.

Santa Anna started out very slow in the third quarter which enabled Gordon to take a double digit lead. The Lady Mountaineers were able to get untracked midway through the quarter but by that time Gordon had got into a rhythm and were able to counter any runs that Santa Anna made. Santa Anna played hard the entire night but turnovers and a size mismatch were just too much to overcome. Santa Anna finished the season with a 28-6 record. This was Santa Anna’s second 20 plus win season in a row.

In a practice game the Lady Mountaineers won an exciting 50-49 double overtime victory over Aspermont. This game really helped prepare Santa Anna for Gordon’s press. Unfortunately it could not prepare the Lady Mountaineers for Gordon’s size. This game marked Santa Anna’s 28th victory.

To get to the bi-district round, the Lady Mountaineers dominated the second half of district play by winning their last six of seven games. The biggest pre-Zephyr test game came against Rising Star on their senior night. The Lady Wildcats jumped out to a 12-2 lead and put Santa Anna in a tough situation. The Lady Mountaineers trailed the entire game but in the last two minutes were able to rally to a 44-40 victory.

Santa Anna’s lone district losses were to pre-season district favorite Zephyr. In game one Zephyr was able to control the tempo and win in a defensive battle by a score of 27-21. Santa Anna generated a little more offense in game two but was defeated at Zephyr 39-31. Zephyr’s defense was a major factor in both losses. Santa Anna finished district with a 14-2 record and in second place.

Bluecats Drop Close Game to San Saba Tuesday Night
2/11/2010

The Coleman Bluecats dropped a very close game, Tuesday night here in Coleman against the visiting San Saba Armadillos. “I was extremely proud of how hard the guys fought throughout this game. We were down before halftime by 15 points at one time. We were able to drop their lead to only 10 points at half. We outscored San Saba 16-6 in the 3rd quarter and were able to tie the game before the 4th quarter. With about 4 minutes to go we had a 6 point lead over the Armadillos. In the final minutes of the ball game we let San Saba get back into the game because we made some costly fouls. They were in the 1 and 1 free throw situation and were able to make some clutch free throws to get back in the game. I cannot say enough about how hard the guys fought and that was a very tough game to lose because of the effort the guys put in.”

Kyle Russell led the team in scoring with 15 points followed by Reid Needham with 13 points.

The Bluecats will finish the district schedule Friday, February 12, 2010 and will host Comanche. There will be 3 games in the Main High School Gym starting at 5:00pm.

The Bluecats would like to congratulate Coach Dawson and the Bluekatts’ basketball program for having a good season this year.

Bluekatts 09-10: A WORD FROM COACH DAWSON
2/10/2010
What goes into a season? The old saying blood, sweat, and tears is very true but what does that really mean? It means giving up hours and days during the summer to go to tournaments and work-out at the gym. It means running miles during August and September to be stronger in October thru February. It means sharing tears of joy after an emotional win and crying when it has to come to an end. That’s just a small taste of what has gone into this season.

It has been two years in the making getting us to this point and girls buying into our concepts and believing in what we are trying to do. Parents allowing us to push their daughters to the limits and understanding what we were trying to accomplish. But most important it takes kids that want to be pushed and that have a true desire to want to get better to become winners. We have winners. It may have not always shown up on the score board that way but I can tell you this that your Bluekatts are winners! They have represented our school and community in a way that has brought back respect and pride in our basketball program.

I am proud to call these girls my team and am proud to have had the opportunity to have coached them. We finished the season 17-13 overall and 6-6 in district. We graduate 4 great seniors in Rynn Norris, Jacy Payne, Carissa Zarate, and Jessica Morales but we bring back 5 juniors next year Vicky Cruz, Dylan Buzzard, Erin Strickland, Mercedes Taylor, and Jackie Birdwell. Next season starts now! I know the girls and our coaching staff want to say a great big thank you to the parents, the fans, and the students for all the support we have had this year. We plan on giving you more to cheer about next year and the years to come.

Thank you
Coach Dawson

Coleman 25 vs. Early 42
2/8/2010
Coleman (17-12 6-5) 8 6 8 3 25
Early 16 8 11 7 42

Tough game, we were never able to get any type of run going. We shot 17% from the field and you can’t do that and win games. Part of it was they played good defense and the other was we could not buy a basket. I felt like we were taking good shots but we hesitated all night with our decisions. I thought our defense did well and honestly my goal was to hold them under 45 points. They are a very good offensive team and have been averaging 55 a game so 42 was manageable for us. I just never imagined we would shoot that poorly. That’s the way the ball bounces tough sometimes. Girls fought the whole game and worked to come back it just wasn’t our night. Loved the support of our fans we had the stands packed Friday and that was great to see. We hope everyone comes out Tuesday for our last game and Senior night before the game. We have had a great year and would love to have a big crowd to show their support for these young ladies and the work they have done to turn around our basketball program. Hope to see you Tuesday at 6:30.


Varsity Boys Versus Brady
2/6/2010
“I would like to take this opportunity to say that I really appreciated the job that Miss Kourtney Johnson, Mrs. Mickey Holloway and their BIPS staff did with the BIPS kids this year. Would also like to thank all the BIPS performers this year. I think they did a fantastic job and put on a great halftime performance. Keep up the hard work.

The varsity boys played a better 2nd half in the game against Brady. I told the guys at halftime that we could not play timid against a good team of Brady’s caliber. They realized that in the second half and really got after them. One thing that I stressed to our guys is that we do not get out hustled and I truly believe that we won the hustle battle. Brady is defending their district title from last year, so they are a very good basketball team that has played in some big games over the years. I think our guys handled themselves well. The high school boys basketball team would like to ‘Congratulate’ the varsity girls’ team on some huge wins in the second half of district. Good luck for the remainder of the season.”

The Varsity boys team will have Parent/Guardians night next Tuesday, February 9, 2010 when San Saba travels to town.

Big win at home again. The magic number is now 2. Girls keep doing their part and that’s staying focused and winning. The girls have come so far this year. Understanding the game and situations during the game itself have been huge in this half of district. We have really matured as a team. Fans were great the student section has been great. The painted faces, the signs, and the cheering have meant a lot to the girls and to me. It’s nice to see the student body getting behind us when we play. Builds a lot of school spirit and pride and I don’t know the kids understand how that effect the young kids in the stands. I think it really makes them want to be a Bluekatt when they see the crowd and the gym packed like this every night. The BIPS kids also did a great job and I saw a lot of future Bluekatts working on those ball handling skills. Keep working. We have a big game in Early Friday and we hope we travel with a big group of fans. Go Bluekatts

8th Grade boys fall short of beating Comanche
2/2/2010
Comanche defeated Coleman by the score of 36-30. The 8th grade boys have improved dramatically over the last few weeks. The first time we played Comanche this year they beat us by 30 points. Last night was a very competitive game. Missed free throws turn out to be the downfall. The eighth grade boys are playing much better defensively and our improving on the offensive end as well. Coleman’s last game will be Monday night here against San Saba. Game time 6:30 pm

Leading scorers were...
Daulton Allen 14
Jansen Merrill 5
Kyle Card 4
