TOUGH SEASON ENDS ON STRANGE NOTE

Aug 11, 2014 - An extremely hard season came to an abrupt end on Sunday as the Spring Cyclones defeated the Texas Sharks after the Sharks withdrew from the game and accepted a forfeit loss.  The Sharks, as the Cyclones, were playing shorthanded and unlike the Cyclones, were playing their second game of the day and third of the weekend.  The Sharks finally ran out of gas as a couple of their players began to suffer cramps and a variety of other heat related injuries.

As for the Cyclones, they began the game with a 4 run first, before giving the lead right back to the Sharks in the bottom of the first.  The Sharks continued to take advantage of a porous Cyclones defense and added 5 more runs over the next 2 innings.  The Cyclones added a run in the top of the 4th to close within 4 runs, but as the inning came to an end and the sides we changing, the Sharks withdrew leaving a a stunned Cyclones team with a win for only the third time this season.
