The district-champion Sealy Lady Tiger soccer squad earned a host of all-district honors following its 5-1 loss to Burnet in the Area Championship last Tuesday.

Although they only trailed by two runs, the Sealy Tiger baseball team used a pair of five-run innings to erase a deficit to visiting Wharton and escape with a bounce-back, 11-3 win. Senior Jose Bludau and junior Garret Nedd provided crucial RBIs in the big innings and both provided a solid pitching performance to boot.

Sealy’s Eric Wilson punched his ticket to next week’s Region III Championship in Bryan after a second-place finish in the boys’ singles bracket at the District 24-4A Championship last week. Colby Eschenburg and Hayden Havel also medaled with a third-place finish in the boys’ doubles bracket at the district match.
