Received honors from LSC, South Central Region
The Javelina Baseball team is studded with stars all around. One in particular is Logan Garza. Garza was named the Lone Star Conference pitcher of the week recently as well as the South Central Region Pitcher of the Week.
“It feels good. We played a good team (UT Tyler) and I respect the way they play and know how good they are and the success they have had in this conference. I don’t deserve all the credit though, there were eight other guys on the field who were making tough plays and working just as hard to get every out,” Garza said. “Nick Wolff, my catcher, called a lot of pitches for me and helped guide me through the game to get outs. My pitching coach, Jeremy Flores, put together a great scouting report which helps our plan of attack to get outs.”
Along with player success, the Javelina baseball team is currently 12-4 in the Lone Star Conference with a 10-3 record at home at Nolan Ryan Field, a 4-1 record when playing away, and is on a current win streak of eight games, which gives them a 14-4 overall record.
Wolff has high praise for his pitcher.
“He’s one of the hardest workers I’ve ever met and it shows when he’s on the field, the guy makes my job easy as a catcher,” Wolff said. “As a whole I feel our team is coming together as a pack. Our pitching staff has been solid and given our lineup a chance every game.”
Fellow pitcher Matthew Sesler said the team keeps looking forward.
“I feel that we are performing to how we are expected to. We set the bar high for ourselves and we can’t just get complacent on how we’re doing now. We have to keep going,” he said.
Moving forward Coach Jason Gonzalez said this about his team.
“Our main goal is to continue with our players’ progression, which in turns leads to our team’s success,” the coach said. “We want our guys to continue to enjoy the success they are having and to enjoy being able to compete with the brotherhood that’s known as The Pack. The players have lofty goals and high standards, and with that comes a lot of hard work, humility, and clarity of focus.”
