The stampeding Eagle Pass C. C. Winn High School Mavericks Baseball Team were swept by the perennial state baseball powerhouse Corpus Christi Foy Moody Trojans in two consecutive games of the best of three Bi-District Championship series during May 5-6, 2017, at the Laredo United ISD Student Activity Complex in Laredo, Texas, falling 8-7 in Game 2 despite a valiant effort.
The Mavericks fell 6-1 in Game 1 on Friday, May 5th, and needed a win in Game 2 to force a decisive Game 3 winner take all on Saturday, May 6th. Although the Mavericks hung tough with the Moody Trojans in the series, the Trojans offensive hitting and pitching nudged the Mavericks in the hard fought series.
The Mavericks enjoyed a good season with an overall record of 18-12 and finished in fourth place in District 29-5A.
The Mavericks are under the leadership of Head Coach Gene Flores and assisted by Assistant Coaches Jesus Gomez, Gustavo Gonzalez, Sergio Esquivel, Mario Cruz, and Athletic Trainer is Dwight Arganbright.
