Softball team surges

Carl Waits Sports Reporter

The Dripping Springs softball team had another busy week when they opened the week by pounding Austin High in the district opener 17-2. The rest of the week they were hosting the Brittany Tuck Memorial tourney. They dropped their first two games to Barbers Hill 4-1 and SA O'Connor 5-2. After that they righted the ship by defeating Cedar Park 9-1, Sinton 4-0, Hays 4-3, and NB Canyon 11-6.

The season has reached another milestone for Coach Wade Womack at Dripping Springs. The late Coach Keith Tuck set the standard for DS in his nine-years with 261 wins. The second win of the season, a 14-2 win over Round Rock pushed his total to 263 and he is still working on adding to that total.
