Big 7 Baseball: Postseason Recap
Mission, Sharyland and La Joya ISD high school baseball programs have produced hardworking, disciplined teams and developed big-time ball players for years. This year was no exception. Six Big 7 baseball teams qualified for the UIL State Baseball Playoffs in their respective classifications this year. Of those six, three teams, the La Joya Coyotes, the La Joya Palmview Lobos, and the Sharyland Pioneer Diamondbacks rose above the competition to establish themselves as regional and state powers. Sadly, the Big 7 baseball season ended last week after the Coyotes fell to the San Antonio Johnson Jaguars in the 6A Region IV Regional Semifinals. Despite that unfortunate outcome, the state of Big 7 baseball is as good as ever.
