After several years of supremacy, the Cy-Fair Lady Bobcats finished an uncharacteristic third in the 2008 district softball standings. They don’t want that to happen again in 2009.
“We want that district title back,” said longtime Lady Bobcats coach Debbie Burrow, whose team went 15-5 overall and 3-0 in district in its first 20 games.
“We lasted longer than the other teams (who finished ahead of us) in the playoffs, but our big goal this year is to win that (district title).”
Cy-Fair, which finished behind Cypress Woods and Cypress Creek last year, advanced to the 2008 Region III-5A regional semifinals before losing a best-of-three series to Bellaire. The Bobcats were 10-4 in district in 2008.
“As a team, we are doing really well,” Burrow said. “The kids are getting along well and playing together well. I think we are probably playing better than I thought we would play at this point.”
The Lady Bobcats have only three returning seniors from last year in center fielder Patti Bradshaw, shortstop Bethany Armstrong and left fielder Leslie Buxton.
