It is Baseball Time and Texas!! With the 2022 Baseball season officially underway, The Los Fresnos Falcons kicked off the new Season with a big win over Brownsville Pace 4-0.

Coach Morales’ ball club looks to continue their winning ways heading into tournament play this weekend.

So What’s on the tap for the Falcons in 2022? Well after a stellar 2021 season which consisted of an amazing playoff run to the Regional Finals, Los Fresnos looks to punch their way to Round Rock and pick up right where they left off.

Again Los Fresnos captured a big win on opening night over Brownsville Pace 4-0. In what is arguably a tough non-district schedule, some teams the Falcons will face this season include San Antonio Harlan, Cedar Park, and coastal bend powerhouse Corpus Christi Carroll. The Falcons will then begin 32-6A on March 8th against San Benito. With a tough schedule overall, the Falcons look to make another deep run in the postseason.

Talking about opening night, Los Fresnos took control from the start as Senior Mathew Padilla took control from the mound he fanned seven hitters throughout five innings. Hitting for the Falcons also came alive with nine hits by Los Fresnos, including a Sacrifice Fly Out brought a run in.

Los Fresnos now looks ahead to tournament competition until District 32-6A Play on March 8th begins vs San Benito.
