Varsity baseball wins home opener, routs Borger

Trevor Ferril, Associate Editor • March 14, 2013

The varsity baseball team played their first home game of the season Tuesday against the Borger Bulldogs. They went up 9-0 after the first inning and never looked back as they shut out Borger 22-0. Catcher Jake Rogers hit the only home run of the game, a three-run shot over the right-center field wall.

The first five runs the Eagles scored came off of walks, wild pitches and one hit-by-pitch. They also scored three runs in the second inning and 10 runs in the third. The game lasted four and a half innings due to the mercy rule, where the game ends if one team has a 10-run lead or greater after five innings or four and a half if the home team has such a lead.

They will travel to San Antonio to play East Central High School on Thursday and Antonian Prep the next day before they return home to play Randall the following two games.

The Soaring Pride Band's March-A-Thon was Aug. 21. Students are still actively fundraising for band fees, and those willing can donate through the end of this week. “I have seen March-A-Thons in other communities not be as effective as the one here, and I think it has everything to do with the way Canyon supports its organizations within the city,” Rath said. “Canyon is uniquely supportive of something like the March-A-Thon. In other communities, the March-A-Thon is just an activity. In Canyon, this is something that the community hangs their hats on, looks forward to and wants to know is going on.”
Marching to make a difference
Canyon Rush was a first year event that provided underclassmen with a chance to tour the school and explore different clubs and organizations, while upperclassmen got the chance to showcase their favorite parts of school.
