No. 25 Rangers Drop Season Series to No. 12 Coppell

Jesuit Dallas fell victim to another late-inning rally as Coppell scored three in the top of the seventh to defeat the Rangers, 8-5 on Friday in a University Interscholastic League (UIL) District 9-6A clash at Wright Field. The Rangers tied the bout in the bottom of the sixth with a two-run inning but were unable to stem a late rally en route to their second district loss of the year.
 
Junior Garrett Reuben led the charge with two runs driven in, part of a top four of the Ranger order that accounted for all four Jesuit runs. Senior Maccoy Lopez went 3-for-4 with an RBI and run scored while sophomore Jalon Mack went 2-for-3, scoring a team-high two runs while cracking a double. Junior Jaden Woodson went 1-for-4, launching a double of his own with the team's second extra-base hit. Senior Paul Gramling tacked on a 2-for-4 performance.
 
Senior Tyler Murrah started for the Rangers, striking out four batters while allowing three earned runs on five hits. Junior Quinn Bowring appeared in relief of Murrah in the sixth, recording a critical final out to set the stage for the Rangers' game-tying rally. Senior Peter Delkus suffered the loss despite striking out two batters in one inning of work, surrendering three runs on four hits.
 
How it Happened
 
  • Coppell struck early, plating three runs in the first inning. A single to left center by Mack kicked off the game for the Rangers, who would come roaring back after a bunt single by Lopez and a double to right center by Woodson would bring Mack home for the team's first run. Lopez would score on a sacrifice fly from Reuben to bring the Rangers to within a single run of the Cowboy lead.
     
  • Jesuit placed runners into scoring position in the second and threatened with a one-out single in the fourth but were unable to cut into the Coppell lead. Meanwhile the Cowboys were able to add a fourth run in the top of the third after a one-out ground rule double.
     
  • Senior Luke Przybylski led off the bottom of the fifth by reaching base on a Coppell error. A walk to Mack and a bunt single by Lopez loaded the bases and Reuben brought Przybylski on an RBI groundout. Coppell would return the lead to two runs with a one-hit inning assisted by a pair of Jesuit errors.
     
  • In the bottom of the sixth, a leadoff walk to sophomore Tyson Pointer began a Jesuit rally. A double to right by Mack drove home sophomore pinch runner Tanner Jones to cut the lead to one before Lopez drove home Mack on a two-out single to the Coppell shortstop, beating the throw to tie the game at 5-5.
     
  • Coppell would strike for three runs on four hits and no errors in the top of the seventh to take a three-run lead into the final inning. The Cowboys retired the Rangers in order to clinch the win and the season sweep.
