Tompkins, Cinco Ranch, Katy Secure Playoff Spots

By Terry Carter,   The District 19-6A baseball season concludes this weekend. With storms approaching from Austin, some games may be affected. But the weather won’t keep Tompkins, Cinco Ranch and Katy from reaching the playoffs. Still the baseball excitement continues, even this late into the season. Going into Friday’s district finale games, Tompkins (21-6-1, 13-2) co-leads the 19-6A race and closes out its regular season at home against Paetow (9-18).  Cinco Ranch (26-4, 13-2) is […]

By Terry Carter Tompkins cross country coach Walt Yarrow discovered how resilient his Falcon cross country team is on Monday when their top runner finished fourth among his teammates. Aiden Ramshaw is a standout, senior runner and sets the pace for Tompkins teams that have qualified for state the last seven years, Yarrow said.

By Terry Carter Highly-ranked Tompkins faced down Elkins, a traditional baseball team with pedigree, last week in bi-district playoff action. The 2-game sweep by the Falcons, 12-0 and 5-2, spoke volumes about the quality Tompkins (27-1) carries on its roster. Down 1-0 early  in game two and struggling to decipher the Knights’ starting pitcher, Tompkins batters struggled until the fifth inning to string together a series of hits and runs. Elkins led 1-0 for four innings […]

By Terry Carter It doesn’t happen often, but the Tompkins Falcons and Seven Lakes Spartans sit in the top two spots of a new Region III-6A boys’ poll among soccer coaches and media. If that the District 19-6A rivalry between No. 1 Tompkins (16-6-2, 6-4-2) and No. 2 Seven Lakes (19-2-1, 10-1-1) proves valid once more, then the Falcons and Spartans are destined to collide in the postseason as they did in 2020. It’s a […]
