COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS (May 30, 2025) Lake Travis kept its season alive with a big 3-1 win over San Antonio Johnson in Game 2 of their UIL Class 6A regional quarterfinal playoff series. The win ties the best-of-three series at 1-1 and forces a Game 3 to decide who moves on.

The star of the game was Lake Travis pitcher Luke Falcon. He was nearly perfect on the mound, throwing a complete game and giving up just one run. Falcon kept the Johnson hitters off balance all night with smart pitches and great control.

Lake Travis got a strong start at the plate, scoring early runs to take the lead. Solid defense and smart base running also helped the Cavaliers stay ahead.

San Antonio Johnson had won Game 1 of the series, 6-4, and hoped to close it out in Game 2. But Lake Travis had other plans, showing toughness and focus in front of their home fans.

Game 3 will now decide which team moves on in the Texas high school baseball playoffs. Both teams have shown they can win, so the final game should be exciting.

For Lake Travis, Falcon’s performance was a key moment in their playoff run. If they bring the same energy to Game 3, they’ll have a great chance to keep their season going.
