The Hawley baseball team wasn’t going to make short work of Coleman. Both Mother Nature and the Coleman Bluecats saw to that on Saturday at Drigger’s Field at McMurry University. 

Leading their best-of-three 2A bi-district series by a game, Hawley fell 5-3 in rain-delayed Game 2, but recovered with a 10-7 win in Game 3, which ended just short of 1 a.m on Sunday morning.

“It was a great job by both teams, playing this late into the night,” Hawley coach Jamie Seago said. “Both teams fought, but for our guys to pull out a win here is very big for us.”
