JOURDANTON – Usually it’s the head coach that gets doused in Gatorade or water after a big win, but that privilege was reserved for one of the Boerne High baseball players last Friday night.

With BHS and Rockport-Fulton tied at 3-3 in the bottom of the eighth inning, junior Riley Pechacek ended the series with the Pirates and sent the Hounds into the next round with a walkoff home run.

It took a few tries for his teammates to finally catch the speedster, but once they did, Pechacek had a bucket of water dumped on him, which he said didn’t seem quite fair.
