Warming up Steve Thomas pitched most every game before he was hurt. Knee injury curtails pitcher Starting pitcher for the varsity team, junior Steve Thomas began the season with a 3-3 record but was hampered with a knee injury going into the second half of district play. His knee injury turned out to be torn cartilage requiring surgery. He missed the entire second half of play and was still named to the second team all-district team in the pitching categoryl Batting falls off Maynor makes all-district outfielder We were just not aggressive at the plate, stated Coach John King after the Buffs lost to Sam Houston in the district opener. However, the Buffs, bats never did get aggressive as they finished the season with a 3-8 district record. The Buffs did finish the first half of district play with a 3-3 record in spite of losing both starting pitchers. Junior Steve Thomas was hampered with a knee injury and didn't play any the second half, and senior Jay Mitchell broke his ankle during practice and was out most of the season. This has been a very disap- pointing seasonf' King said after the team had lost their third straight game in second half play. Although the team seemed to have a lot of downs, there were some good things that hap- pened. Senior Shawn Maynor was the only Buff baseballer to be named to the first all-district team in the outfield position. Junior Steve Thomas was named to the second team all- district in the pitching category even though he didn't play in the second half. Senior Jim Funk and junior Kevin Reeves received honorable mention honors.- VARSITY BASEBALL
