Former Eagles on conference baseball team
Two former Pecos Eagle baseball players were selected to the Texas-American
Southwest Conference Baseball All-Conference team as juniors playing for
Howard Payne University in Brownwood.
Third baseman Richard Gutierrez and outfielder Oscar Luna were both named
to the West Division All-Conference squad and to the combined East and West
Division All-Conference first team, with Luna earning Newcomer of the Year
honors for the West All-Conference team. The teams were announced last month
and were based on voting by the Conference's 15 head coaches.
Luna, who earned all-district honors as an outfielder for Pecos in 1998
and 1999, helping the Eagles advance to the Region I-4A semifinals his senior
season, batted .317 with six doubles this season for Howard Payne, while
Gutierrez, an all-district pick in 1996-98 for the Eagles batted .438 this
season for HPU with 20 RBI.
Luna and Gutierrez were the only first team selections for Howard Payne
on the All-Conference squad, and only one other West Texas player, Wall's
Matt Sefick, was named to the first team, as a first baseman for Sul Ross
State University.
