Houston cruises into national Top-15
Following a one-sided cross-town rivalry, the HOCO Bears shared postgame remarks, via Twitter with the following statement: “After over a week of no games it was great to knock the rust off. The Bears came out on top 8-0 and got a lot guys work. We are back in action on Thursday, at the PG Gulf Coast Showdown, in Panama City Beach. “Time to test what we got,” mentioned Matt Hopkins.
The Houston Bears have won eleven games, thus far. Scoring 123 runs and allowing fewer than 54, these HOCO area power-hitters have displayed hot bats recently. The Bears beat Warner Robins on Monday evening in an 8-0 route. The pitching from Houston gave the Bears the edge over the Demons.
The Houston Bears are preparing for the Perfect Game Gulf Coast Showdown, at the Panama City Beach Complex. Pool Play will begin on March 23 in Panama City Beach, Florida. The Houston Bears being a nationally ranked team comes with its expectations, but the Bears already have the bar set high.
On March 15, Perfect Game released their updated Top-50 high school baseball rankings. With the team overflowing with future college athletes and some potential pros, Houston almost has no choice but to be good. The Houston County Bears improved to the 12th best spot in the Perfect Game rankings.
Of there first three games, Mosely (Lynn Haven, Florida), Mater Lakes Academy (Miami, Florida) and Har-Ber (Springdale, Arizona) will face one of the best from the Peach State. The HOCO Bears are 2-1 at neutral sites in 2022. Currently, the Bears’ five-game winning streak has the team moral in great spirits. As of recent, Gage Harrelson was awarded central Georgia Athlete of the Week, via 13wmaz. On March 29, the Houston Bears will play at home against perennial powerhouse, Ware County Gators.
