LAMPASAS – The arm and bat of Lampasas’ Ace Whitehead turned out to be too much for the Brownwood Lions to overcome in a 2-1 road loss to the Badgers in District 6-4A baseball action Tuesday night.
Whitehead – who is headed to the University of Texas to continue his baseball career – tossed a complete game three-hitter with 13 strikeouts and four walks. Whitehead also belted a two-run home run in the bottom of the third inning to account for the only runs Lampasas needed.

In a game that featured 23 runs, 20 hits, 14 walks, 12 errors and 18 runners left on base, the Brownwood Lions emerged with a 13-10 victory over the Lampasas Badgers Tuesday night at Morris Southall Field to move to the top of the District 6-4A baseball standings.
“Starting out 2-0, you’re not supposed to complain about that but we do still have some work to do,” said Lions second-year head coach Brian Harris. “This was a good game to learn from. We had our ups and our downs and they made it a really close game there at the end, and there was a little pressure there.”
