National Nurses Week is May 6 -12
National Nurses Week is May 6 -12
My first remembered encounter with a nurse was in the office of our family’s pediatrician. It was time for some type of inoculation and I didn’t want to play. Dashing out of the examination room, I eventually reached the waiting room, where I sought refuge under an unoccupied chair. Not a good decision! 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
