JARRELL – The Taylor Ducks varsity baseball team came up just short of securing its first district victory, falling to the Jarrell Cougars 8-7 in walk-off fashion on Tuesday, March 24 at Jarrell High School.

Taylor carried a 7-6 lead into the bottom of the seventh inning, but Jarrell loaded the bases with two outs. A wild pitch from Braedon Valdez allowed two runners to cross the plate, sealing the comeback win for the Cougars.

Defensively, the Ducks struggled throughout the night, committing five errors that proved costly in a tightly contested game.
