Wimberley is preparing for their first district matchup of the season on Friday. They will welcome Canyon Lake at 7:00 p.m. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
On Tuesday, Wimberley beat Marion 5-2. The win continues a trend for the Texans in their matchups with the Bulldogs: they've now won four in a row.
Grace Strobel spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on two hits. That's the fewest hits she has allowed since back in February.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Ella P, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and one stolen base. Those three RBI gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Bailey Wright, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-4.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Canyon Lake). They were the clear victor by a 17-7 margin over Llano on Tuesday. Canyon Lake might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four contests by eight runs or more this season.
Canyon Lake is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a massive bump to their 5-7 record this season. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 9.3 runs. Wimberley's victory bumped their record up to 4-13.
Wimberley was able to grind out a solid win over Canyon Lake in their previous matchup back in April of 2024, winning 10-5. Does Wimberley have another victory up their sleeve, or will Canyon Lake turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
