The district awards for the Dripping Springs softball and baseball teams have been announced.

The threegame District 26 skid for the Dripping Springs High School varsity softball team began March 11 in a 3-2 loss on the road to Westlake, then on March 12 in an at-home 6-3 loss to Lake Travis and, what one might say was an unexpected 2-0 shutout on March 19 at Del Valle. The Lady Tigers had obviously put the losses in the rearview mirror when they hosted Anderson and won on a run-rule 13-0 shutout on March 22.

The Dripping Springs softball team hosted Lake Travis during spring break on Tuesday, March 12 and the Lady Tigers were looking to rebound from a 3-2 loss the night before to Westlake, with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning.
