Long time and recently retired McKinney North head baseball coach, JIM GATEWOOD, passed away this morning. Just last year he won his 446 game, while his team played in the State Semifinals
The McKinney North baseball field was named after Coach Gatewood upon his retirement.
There are very few combinations of words in the English language that warrant ejecting a coach from an elimination game in the Men's College World Series finals. And yet Coastal Carolina's Kevin Schnall -- and first-base coach Matt Schilling -- just got run in the first inning.
STORY: Pitching and defense have been hallmarks of McKinney North's (@MNHSAllAccess) run to the state semifinals, and the Bulldogs' one-two punch of Brooks Nelson and Austin Sayman have helped lead that effort. https://t.co/UhVxjAa1GI
Happy times for @MNHSAllAccess!! The dream postseason for McKinney North marches on after sweeping #5-ranked Lake Belton in walk-off fashion, 2-1. Bulldogs bound for the regional finals for the first time since 2009, just the 3rd group in program history to advance to that round.
Clutch hits & strong bullpen work get the job done in the Battle of the Bronx!
