Two headed to State in track

Two headed to State in track

Ava Williamson placed second in the high jump with a leap of 5'6, tying a 20- year old school record. Brant Melton remained undefeated in the 800 to punch his ticket. Only the top two places advance and DS had three others to barely miss out with thirds. 05/05/2022 12:00 AM

Tigers drop final game

Tigers drop final game

The final week of the regular season copied their whole season. Putting it all together and then struggling with phases of their game. Of course, much has to do with the opponent but the Tigers do have to own their problems. They entered the week not having to worry about making the playoffs but the seed does matter. Going into the final game with Kerrville they were the second seed. A loss and a Johnson win would drop them to third. There is usually a steeper hill to climb playing a second seed than a third. Things would go their way at Seguin with two big scoring innings invoking the tenrun rule after five with the 15-0 score. However, the Antlers made it personal with a 2-1 triumph. 05/05/2022 12:00 AM

Lemon Coral Sedum: Celebrate the flowers

Lemon Coral Sedum: Celebrate the flowers

A funny thing happened on the way to May... I have what looks to be a million tiny yellow flowers. It happens every year for about 4 to 6 weeks but no one talks about it some even look away. In fact, Lemon Coral sedum was the 2019 Proven Winners Annual of the Year, yet I don’t remember flowers being mentioned. While I am at it, I will add, I have never had one die either. The truth, or caveat to that is that I have lived my whole horticultural life in zones 7b-10. In other words, fairly mild to warm climates. 05/05/2022 12:00 AM
