A very tough way to lose a state championship for London. Bases loaded with two outs up 7 to 4 in the bottom of 7th, 2 errors, one walk, one hit, and 3 hit batters. The last hit batter for the winning run. They did make 3 pitching changes in the inning even bringing back the pitcher who started the inning for one of the hit batters. Great season nonetheless for London. Heart breaking to lose a game in the last inning no matter how it's accomplished. But losing like this is absolutely the worst . The other team literally didn't have to do much but stand in the batters box.... Has to hurt for the London kids and you have to wonder how the other team feel knowing they had a ton of luck work in their favor. I mean TONS of luck. London has done a lot over there in a very short period of time across their whole athletic program. It won't be too long until they are in 4A with the way that area on the southside of Corpus is growing. Is CC London a single school ISD?

Before, most of their students opted to go to high school at TM or Flour Bluff. I think a few also went to Bishop to the west of them? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Independent_School_DistrictThe school district sits on a lot of land that will be developed along with some mineral rights deposits that are still producing tax revenue. Won't be long until they build some nicer athletic facilities.

When i went to school in Sinton back in '86 and '87 my brother in law manage the cotton gin at London and i work there in those two summers. It was a farming community with a small school think it was only elementary grades. That school building still there today and they have added to their school system now all grades since few years ago. Didn't even know back then it was a town with only one gas station back then. Expensive place to live compare to other areas in Corpus.
