From Coach Brent Landrum: Friday night’s win versus Houston Christian was a very exciting and well played ball game by both teams. The win secured the fourth seed for Cooper and we will play Irving Cistercian in the opening round of the SPC championship tournament. Evan Godwin was the winning pitcher and he drove in the winning run with his three run scoring double. I am ready to see what this team can do at the SPC championships. We are playing really good baseball right now.
