The Port Aransas High School Marlins split a double-header with the Medina High School Bobcats on Wednesday, March 19.

The Marlins dropped the first game, 2-4, then won the second one, 12-11.

“We showed both (our) good and bad sides,” said Brian Flack, coach of the Marlins. “The first game, we crumbled in the last inning by making two errors in the last inning and giving it up,” Flack said.

“The second game, we scored five runs in the last inning, and then shut them out for their last at-bat to come from trailing by four runs to win in dramatic fashion,” Flack said.
