The problem is Griner isn't a boxer. She is a freshman on the No. 14 Baylor women's basketball team and her punch came during a game against Texas Tech.

In their 15-1 season opening victory over Putnam City Tuesday, the Lions needed only three innings of work to rack up 15 runs, 14 hits, nine doubles and two homers.It's the type of statement the MHS slowpitch team likes to make when they start a season.

However, that isn't good enough for a program that has grown accustomed to playing for the biggest prize.

They started with win over Norman North Thursday in the season opener."I thought that after the first couple of innings that we settled down and played like we are capable of," Southmoore coach Jason Lingo said.

When he is standing alone, getting his mind right for what he needs to do over the next six minutes of fierce action.

That was the one word Southmoore coach Wes Brown used over and over to describe his team's performance Saturday after they were throttled 67-31 by Midwest City in the Regional Championship. Wed, 03 Mar 2010 10:46:00 +0000 http://www.mooreamerican.com/sports/local_story_062080018 http://www.mooreamerican.com/sports/local_story_062080018 Coach Mark Harmon isn't surprised. Even though his team has a total of seven wins and started the season with six consecutive defeats, the fact that Southmoore is two wins away from the state tournament is not surprising to him. Wed, 03 Mar 2010 08:00:19 +0000 http://www.mooreamerican.com/sports/local_story_062080022 http://www.mooreamerican.com/sports/local_story_062080022 EDMOND -- In a span of three days, the Southmoore girls faced two top-10 teams. During the regular season, this would have been a pummeling.But the postseason has brought about a new SaberCat squad. One that is not afraid of a challenge.

For those who do not know that I'm referring to the "Miracle on Ice," that helps prove my point.To listen to sportscasters and sports historians talk, you would think the United States hockey team beating the Soviet Union in the medal round of the 1980 Olympics was the most uplifting and inspiring thing to happen in athletics since Joe Louis knocked out Max Smelling.

The 90-45 thrashing by Midwest City in the Regional championship was still in his system. He just doesn't know how much it the loss bothered his team.

They made it three in a row, however, Southmoore made them earn the 61-51 victory.
