The Hallsville Bobcats are definitely on a roll. They are currently in the midst of a 12 game streak in which they have not allowed a single run. The Bobacts, led by Coach Scott Mitchell, have been stingy all year when it comes to opponents crossing the plate. The team has 17 total shutouts and have outscored their opponents by a total of 90-0 during their current 12 games shutout streak and 185 – 20 over their 25 games this season. To take that even deeper, the Bobcats outscored their district opponents 103-7, which included a 3-2 loss at the hands of District Runner Up, Sulphur Springs on March 27th. That game also marked the last run allowed by Hallsville pitching.
A streak of this magnitude obviously requires repeated brilliant pitching performances; and Hallsville has had no shortage of magnificent outings from its pitching staff. To say ‘magnificent’ may be a bit of an under billing when it comes to staff ace, Coby Weaver. Weaver, a Dallas Baptist commit, has amassed 3 perfect games and a 3 no hitters this season alone. To add to those gaudy stats, Weaver has fanned 124 batters this season, which currently tops that category in 5A.
The Bobcats are 22-3 on the season and will face Waxahachie in the Area Round beginning Thursday in Lindale, followed by games on Friday and Saturday (if necessary) at Mesquite’s Tillery Field.
