LITTLE CYPRESS — First it was Little Cypress-Mauriceville rolling, then it was Lumberton and finally the Bears got the hard-fought win.

LC-M jumped out to a 9-0 lead after the first three innings only to watch as Lumberton fought back.

LC-M (19-11, 10-3) defeated Lumberton (11-15-2, 5-8) 10-6 on Senior Night which celebrated the efforts of 11 players.

The Bears win also gave Vidor a reason to smile as the Pirates clinched the fourth playoff spot in District 20-4A even after losing to Nederland on Monday, 9-0.

LC-M was up 4-0 after two innings and then erupted for five runs in the bottom of the third.

After Brandon Landry drove in Taylor Thompson on a sacrifice fly, Tim Barry later had a three-run blast to deep center field scoring Wade Estes and Scott Vaughn.

Stefan Leger, who walked, later came in to score when Matt Johnson had his second RBI double of the night.

Johnson’s first RBI double came in the first inning and put LC-M up 1-0 when Barry scored.

Johnson cross home plate to make it 2-0 in the bottom of the first when Thompson hit a RBI single to right field.

Two more Bears scored in the bottom of the second to make it 4-0 LC-M.

Vaughn led off by getting hit by a pitch and Dallas Brown followed that up with a walk.

Leger plated both runners with a two-run singled to left field.

The Raiders were not done playing baseball as Lumberton scored four runs in the top of the fourth.

West Bingham led the inning off with a solo home run. Tyler Wilson made it 9-2 when he scored as Corey Lemaire was hit by a pitch.

Trace Freeman then crossed home when Skylar Stampley was issued a walk and Ryan Hughes picked up a RBI fielder’s choice to score Ty Choate to make it 9-4.

Bingham would score again in the top of the fifth as Parker Harris hit a RBI double to center.

Barry scored for the third time for LC-M in the bottom of the fifth after leading off with a single to left.

Johnson picked up his third RBI of the night with a single to right to score Barry.

Wilson plated Lumberton’s final run of the night with a RBI single to center in the top of the sixth to score Tyler Erickson.

Thompson worked two different times on the mound for LC-M and allowed one run in 3 1/3 innings and gave up four hits with two strike outs. Barry went three innings for LC-M and struck out five with three hits and one run.

Wilson did a nice job in relief for Lumberton as he worked the final two innings and kept silenced the LC-M bats. He gave up two hits and struck out five of the six batters he faced.

LC-M will finish the district schedule Friday when it travels to face Beaumont Ozen.

    • That’s a heck of a take there. If you could just remove Kountze’s top 6-7 players, you got them.
    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
