Freshman Addyson Mayberry got the Portales High softball team off to a flying start on Tuesday night. Mayberry walloped a three-run homer in the first inning and the early lead held up for a while in a District 4-4A matchup against visiting Artesia. But the Lady Bulldogs, blanked until the fourth, took the lead with a four-run fifth and went on to a 13-3 victory. Mayberry followed singles by sophomore Skyler Massey and junior Myleigh Banda with her round-tripper. But PHS had...
ROSWELL – Big innings did in Clovis High’s softball team in a District 4-5A twin bill against Roswell High on Tuesday. The Lady Wildcats dropped the opener 10-0 and the nightcap 15-4. Leading just 3-0 in Game 1, the Lady Coyotes (7-15, 2-6) scored six times in the bottom of the fifth and ended it on the run rule in the sixth, while in the second game they broke a 1-1 tie with a nine-run second. Junior Yadira Aragon worked five innings in the opener for Roswell High, allowing five hits with one walk and five strikeouts. Sop...
MELROSE – Melrose pushed over a run in the bottom of the sixth inning on Thursday and edged Grady 8-7 for a split of their District 3-1A baseball doubleheader. In the opener, the Bronchos used a pair of big innings to post a 13-5 win over the Buffaloes. Melrose (9-5, 4-2 district) came in ranked No. 2 and Grady (9-4, 2-4) was No. 4 in MaxPreps' Class 1A poll.

Liz Elam wasn’t pleased with her start in Clovis High’s Wildcat Invite golf tournament on Tuesday at Colonial Park Golf Course, but she eventually sorted things out. Starting on the back nine, the Texico High senior shot six-over 42 from holes 10 through 18, then came back for even-par 36 on the front side, easily taking medalist honors for the day with her 78. “I don’t really know what happened,” Elam said of her slow start. “I wasn’t really that focused. “I told myself, ‘Don’t worry about the score.’ I just decided to play...
LUBBOCK – Lubbock Christian used a six-run eighth to break open a tight game and beat Eastern New Mexico University 15-9 on Friday in the opener of the final four-game series of Lone Star Conference and regular-season baseball for both teams. Despite the loss, the Greyhounds (21-26, 19-26 LSC) still clung to life in a bid for an LSC tourney berth next week. They entered Saturday and today’s final three games of the regular season trailing St. Edward’s and Texas A&M International, tied for sixth at 22-23 in the LSC, and Arkans...
ROSWELL – Portales High's baseball team knew its work was cut out facing the No. 1 team in Class 4A this week. The Rams managed only a single tally in all three games, including Friday's 4-1, 8-1 sweep by the Rockets in Roswell. Goddard, which has won 11 in a row, opened the District 4-4A series on Thursday night with a 7-1 verdict at Ram Field. Portales (9-11, 0-6 district) kept the Rockets (18-5, 6-0) in some check during the series, but the Rams managed only a total of eigh...
Jayden Jameson found his game just in time Thursday night. The senior right-hander struggled through a five-run Hobbs second – two errors in the frame didn’t help – before blanking the Eagles over the next four innings as Clovis High posted a come-from-behind 8-6 win in the second game of a District 4-5A doubleheader at Bell Park. Hobbs clinched a series win with a 17-12 verdict in Game 1 behind a nine-run third. The Cats (12-10, 2-4 district) close the regular season with three games against Roswell High this week – a 5 p.m...
Hobbs proved to be too much for Clovis High's tennis squads on Tuesday in District 4-5A duals at the CHS courts. The Eagles swept the Wildcats 9-0 in boys competition while the Lady Eagles notched a 7-2 victory over Clovis on the girls' side. In the boys' dual, the Cats were unable to win a set as they took just 19 games in the nine matches, including only two in the three doubles clashes. The closest contests were from eighth-grader Ryan Case, who lost 6-4, 6-1 to senior...
Coming into this weekend’s season-ending Lone Star Conference series against St. Mary’s, Eastern New Mexico University’s softball team knew its work wasn’t quite done in a bid for an LSC tournament berth. It was done before Friday’s series-opening doubleheader, though. St. Edward’s, trailing the Greyhounds by two games, played its series at Texas Woman’s early this week due to weather concerns for the weekend in the Denton area. Needing a sweep – and three losses by the Hounds – the Rattlers dropped two of three to the Pionee...
