Yesterday evening, September 21, 2021, we traveled to Cotulla to take on the Cowboys. With one of our main setters out, Elysa Aleman, due to a knee injury, this Pirate team stepped up to the challenge. Lopez, filling in for the injured Aleman, returned to the position she played since middle school and played it well. The scores were close in each set but the Pirates came out Victorious, beating the Cowboys in three sets. They are starting to believe in the process and continue to make improvements.
Last Friday, September 17, 2021, was not the outcome we wanted, but rest assured that our team will continue to work hard and give our all. Congratulations to Cort Haltom and Kasen Boyd for being recognized as defensive and offensive players of the game for the Pirates. In addition, I would also like to recognize Elias Hernandez, who led our team in tackles, as well as Diego Rangel, Mario Diaz and Hudson Mask for their outstanding effort in Friday’s game.
Last night, September 20, 2021, the Junior High Lady Pirates took on the Jourdanton Indians in some rough volleyball matches. As each team struggled with the new defense, there was a shining team who played hard and overcame their team's difficulties.
It was a hot, humid day on Saturday, September 18, 2021 as the Lytle Pirate Cross Country team traveled down to Corpus for the Islander Splash. It was a chance to run at the regional course that we hope to get back to on October 25th.
The Lady Pirates played with heart, desire and lots of determination against the Mustangs of Natalia, September 17, 2021. Although we lost in three sets, the scores do not reflect how the well these ladies played and came together after #7 Aleman went down with a knee injury early in the first set. #1 Lopez stepping up and filling in as a setter. The Lady Pirates had to readjust their strategy to work together to battle the ‘Stangs. Going into the third set, teamwork and trust kept the Pirates giving the ‘Stangs a run for their money but serving errors ended our fight with a loss.
