Walk off win

North Forney TX HS baseball team scores the winning runs in the bottom half of the last inning for a walk off win.  This game was the last one played before the COVID-19 shut down of all sports.  

Safe

It's that season

Lady Tigers Volleyball

Last night was the first home volleyball contest of the year. I wasn't able to stay for the entire contest but I was able to get a few pictures.

Getting a leg up

Kickers have a lonely job.  They don't even get to practice with the rest of the team. 

Skywatch Friday...Football Friday

We get our first chance to get a look at the Terrell football team this evening when they go to North Garland for a scrimmage.

Check out other Skywatch Friday sites here.

North Forney gets ready

I was able to make the short drive over to North Forney High School last night to catch a little of their practice.  The Falcons have a scrimmage this Friday at City Bank Stadium against Little Elm.  North Forney competes in the same district as Terrell, 10-4A.

Tiger Tennis

A shot from Tiger tennis practice Wednesday night.  

Perfect Saturday morning

The Tigers Freshman and Varsity teams scrimmaged against the Arlington Sam Houston Texans yesterday morning.  It was overcast with a few raindrops, not very hot....A perfect morning.  I will have more pictures on Facebook and iHigh later today.

Picture day

Yesterday was picture day for the Terrell Tigers football squads.  A professional photographer was on hand to take portraits of the players and I was there to take head shots for the program and to capture some candid shots.  The Tigers have their first scrimmage this morning against Arlington Sam Houston.

Ready for the games to count

Yesterday the Tigers held a fund raiser by having a 100 inning game.  Varsity and Junior Varsity were split up into red and white teams.  Look for baseball pictures all week.

Lesson learned

The Terrell Lady Tigers hosted the Tigers from Lancaster Tuesday night at the TISD Complex.  Lancaster jumped out to a 9-0 lead and led 18-5 after the 1st period.  The Lady Tigers could never recover or solve the Lancaster trap defense and fell behind by as many as 35 points.  The final score was 67-33.  Their district record drops to 3-4, still in 5th place in District 15-4A.  They travel to Ennis for a Friday night district game.

Friday afternoon baseball

The Tigers home game last night was moved to Mesquite due to the field not being playable. Poteet defeated the Tigers 11-0.

Couldn't hold off the Jackrabbits

The Terrell boys varsity soccer team scored first in a district soccer match against rival Forney Monday night, but they let Forney score with 40 seconds left in the first half to tie the score and again in the second half to give Forney a 2-1 lead that would end up being the final score.

Monday bonus

Just one more shot from Saturday. Tonight's scheduled game against Garland Lakeview Centennial has been cancelled so it may be a while before I can get to a game. Next up is the Waxahachie Tournament starting Thursday.

Euless Trinity 6 Terrell 0

The Terrell Tigers were one hit in a 6-0 loss Saturday to the Euless Trinity Trojans in their final game of the Benny Jones Tournament.

The Trojans scored in the bottom of the first inning and behind good pitching and fielders being in the right position they were never threatened. The Nathan Adam registered the only hit for the Tigers, getting a one out single in the 6th inning. The Tigers only had two other base runners reaching on walks.

The Tigers finished 1-2 in pool play, and will next face Garland Lakeview Centennial at home before heading to the Waxahachie Tournament next Thursday. The Tigers lost game one of the tournament 13-2 to Garland Lakeview Centennial.




I still haven't been able to go through all of my pictures. Look for a few more on the blog and on Facebook.

Friday bonus

A few more shots from the baseball scrimmage between Terrell and Kaufman. Over 40 pictures have been uploaded to the Terrell Daily Photo Facebook fan page.

Skywatch Friday- Baseball, finally!

I have been waiting for baseball season since last years playoffs. The regular season hasn't started yet, but the Tigers did scrimmage against the Kaufman Lions last night. How could I resist not making my Skywatch Friday picture from the field. Click to enlarge.

More Skywatch Friday sites are here.

I will post a few more baseball shots from last night in my Friday bonus post later today.

Push Push Push

I think the game plan going into Terrell's basketball game with Sulphur Springs Tuesday night was to push the ball every chance they got. On every forced turnover and defensive rebound the Terrell coaching staff was yelling, push, push, push.





The goal was to wear down the Wildcats who only dressed 6 players for the game. I would guess that they were shorthanded because their football team is still alive in the playoffs and there are students who play both sports.






The Wildcats did their best to keep the game close. They hit some 3 pointers early and only trailed by 4 after the first quarter 21-17. Terrell widened the lead to 13 at half time and pulled away in the second half to win 89-65.



Five Tigers scored in double figures
Jherrod Stiggers 24
Darius Simpson 12
Michael White 11
Josh Winfield 11
Michael McNeal 10

The Tigers are now 3-0.

I was 10-5 picking the NFL games, my season record is 94-50. My fantasy team also won, I moved into 4th place. Top 6 make the playoffs, 3 weeks to go.
