FacebookTweetPin

From the hardwood to the gridiron and beyond, taking a look back and ahead at the San Antonio-area high school sports landscape:

By the numbers
5:
Consecutive times the Boerne girls basketball team had lost in a regional final before breaking through with Tuesday’s 56-51 win vs. Fredericksburg. The Greyhounds fell one victory shy of a UIL state tournament berth in 2016, 2014, 2013, 2004 and 2003. They advanced to the state tournament in 2000, losing to eventual champion Canyon in the state semifinals.

19: Judson’s ranking in this week’s espnW Top 25 girls basketball national poll. The Rockets (26-1) make their debut after they edged Reagan 58-52 in overtime in the Region IV-6A final and earned a fifth straight trip to the UIL Class 6A state tournament. Judson faces Cy Creek (30-0), a state finalist a year ago and No. 5 in the espnW rankings, in the Class 6A state semifinals at 3 p.m. Saturday in Goliad.

100: Wins for Reagan girls basketball coach Selena Winbush during her six years at the helm of the Rattlers. Winbush reached the milestone during Reagan’s 60-55 victory over Austin High during the Class 6A second round on Feb. 22.

200: Career wins for Clemens softball coach Amanda Balthun. She accomplished the feat during the Buffaloes’ 11-2 decision vs. Reagan at the North East ISD tournament on Feb. 27. Balthun is in her 14th season and previously coached at McCollum.
