Quick turnaround: Clutch hitting overcomes errors, propels East past McKinney

PLANO -- Despite a strong performance from McKinney junior starter Brett Gannaway and plenty of early run support, the Lions fell to district foe Plano East, 7-6, Friday night from Panther Stadium.

"In this district you have to play seven full innings," said Jeremy Price, McKinney head coach. "Unfortunately we didn't do that tonight."

East scored all seven of its runs in the final two innings, including coming back from a 4-0 deficit. The Panthers won despite committing five errors in the game.

Prestonwood Christian Academy boys basketball head coach Chris Mayberry is heading back to his old stomping grounds.


Not even one month removed from coaching the Lions to their second consecutive TAPPS 5A State Championship, Mayberry announced his resignation from his post and has accepted a job as middle school principal and head coach at The First Academy, based in Orlando (Fla.).

Mayberry coached at Prestonwood for two seasons, posting an overall record of 42-22 including a 27-4 ledger during the team's 2011-12 campaign. He'll return to his previous coaching post in Orlando, where he spent nine years as head coach at The First Academy.
