Cardiac Chaps nab Henry’s 200th win

The Aubrey Chaparrals varsity baseball team secured their fourth bi-district championship in a row, defeating the Van Alstyne Panthers two games to one.

The Panthers took Game 1, but the Chaps battled back to win games 2 and 3 in a series that went down to the wire.

“They play with a lot of heart,” Aubrey head baseball coach Nathan Hentry said. “The way we lost on Wednesday night, being up by three runs with them down to their last strike, and we had a guy in a rundown and threw it away, they easily could have given up and quit, but that’s Aubrey baseball. We’re not ever going to quit, and that goes back to teams before them. They’re selfless, they play for one another, and they show a lot of grit.”
