Ayoung softball team took a giant step in its growth process last week as the Sealy Lady Tigers swept Brazosport in two straight games to clinch the bi-district title for the program. The team that experienced a lot of growing pains last year is now starting to see the fruit of their labor as the team is making strides on the field to become a softball program that will be contended with for the foreseeable future.

Faith Academy baseball season has ended. On Saturday April 20, Faith Academy traveled to Houston to take on Northland Christian (5A TAPPS).

Faith Academy had their Regional Track Meet in Lockhart, at Lions Stadium, on Saturday, April 20. Faith Academy competed in TAIAO which is a Private and Homeschool Christian Athletic Organization.

Sealy will be well represented at the State Class 4A UIL track and field meet with several athletes punching their tickets with high finishes at the area track and field meet. The top two finishers at the area meet earn a ticket to the state meet in two weeks in Austin.

WHARTON – When this season began, Sealy Head Softball Coach Brittany Whitehead believed her team had the talent to make some noise in district and on Monday evening, the Lady Tigers proved that to be right. Sealy pummeled El Campo 15-3 in the seeding playoff game to earn second place out of Distict 24-4A and give the Lady Tigers a nice dose of confidence as they head into the softball playoffs.

Needville’s Makala Smith struck out 12 and allowed only one baserunner as the Bluejays defeated Sealy 4-0 in the final home contest for the Lady Tigers this season. Sealy closed out its softball district season Tuesday with a road contest against Royal.

It’s a lot harder trying to distribute awards fairly when one team has completely dominated across the board. The Lady Tigers recently had several players awarded with All District honors this past week, and unsurprisingly didn’t have the entire squad recognized as Sealy’s girls went undefeated all district season for the first time in history.
