Johnson City defeated Del Valle in an eventful non-district contest 8-1 April 1 and beat Center Point 14-2 last Friday to continue its undefeated district season.
The Eagle offense got to work early on the road against Class 6A foe Del Valle, scoring two runs in the first inning and four in the third in the eventual 8-1 victory. Senior Johnny Slawinski pitched five innings of one-run baseball and allowed one hit and walked five.
The game was not without its quirks however– the seven innings of baseball took well over three hours to complete, of which some was contributed by a reptilian friend that made an appearance during the contest. In the end, however, it was another big win for Johnson City.
