The game started with a strong showing from the Mavericks, scoring an impressive ten runs in the first inning alone, leaving the Cowboys in a significant deficit that they could not recover from.
The Cowboys managed to put up a few runs of their own, with Admire, Romero, and Leger all scoring in the first inning, but it was not enough to catch up to the Mavericks. Stewart, Dedrick, and Ferreira all managed to bring in additional runs in the fourth and sixth innings, but the Cowboys simply couldn't keep up with the Mavericks' powerful offensive lineup.
Defensively, the Cowboys struggled to keep the Mavericks in check, allowing numerous doubles and homers throughout the game. The Mavericks' Felix had a particularly impressive showing, hitting two home runs and bringing in four RBIs.
Despite the loss, the Cowboys fought hard until the very end, with Leger hitting a homer in the seventh inning to bring the final score to 8-28. The team and its fans were undoubtedly disappointed with the outcome, but there were still some bright spots, including Admire's strong showing at the plate, with two RBIs and a double.
The Cowboys will now turn their attention to their final game of the season, which will be played on the road against Colorado Christian University next weekend. While it has been a tough season for the Cowboys, they will undoubtedly be looking to end the season on a high note and finish strong.
In conclusion, it was a tough game for the Cowboys, who couldn't overcome the Mavericks' early lead. However, the team showed heart and determination until the very end, and there were some standout performances from individual players. The Cowboys will now look to finish the season strong with a win in their final game next weekend.
