Varsity Baseball Places Second In State Tourne Sandia's varsity baseball team was defeated by Manzano for the third straight time to place second in state competition. The Matadors went to Carlsbad to defeat the Cavemen in their first game. They Went on to play Valley and defeated the Vikings which put the varsity in the running for the state trophy. Manzano scored first against the Matadors, but the varsity team came back in the second inning to tie the score. Manzano came back in the third to up the score 6-l. Sandia could not get any momentum in the final innings of the game so Manzano went home as the 1976 State Champs. Senior Mickey Crump was named as a co-most valuable player at the tournament. Sandia finished second in district following Highland. The Matadors finished the year with 18 wins and 8 losses. The team was again coached by Hank Paskiewicz and he was assisted by Bob Henderson.
