Week 10 Recap & Top Performers (2026)

PLAYOFFS WEEK 1 | D1 and D2 split brings interesting matchups in the bi-district round

First, if you are wanting somewhere that has great schedules and scores, check out this article by the Corpus Christi Caller Times. They do some great work in gathering all of the information.

This is year two of the classification-split in UIL Baseball, and that just might benefit South Texas by opening up more opportunity for us to be represented at state. If you want to see the UIL Baseball Playoff Brackets, click here. Don't like your matchup? Just remember, it could always be worse- you could have a Top-10 Matchup in 5A-D1 like Leander Rouse and Smithson Valley. But hey, at least you get to play in the postseason! We have started working on our regular season superlatives. These are based entirely on the regular season, and the postseason has no impact on them.

WEEK 10 POWER RANKINGS

OUR FINAL POWER RANKINGS FOR THE 2026 SEASON

College Spotlight - CHRIS CHAVEZ, TEXAS SOUTHERN (D1)

Chris Chavez, a Carroll grad, has had a grind of a career! Love his grit. Chavez started at Alvin CC, and played his way into a D1 program at Texas Southern. On the season, Chavez is currently hitting .398 with 47 hits and 34 RBI! That's pretty dang good at the D1 level. He is a junior, and is looking to finish the season on a high note with TSU.

CARROLL ALumni Chris Chavez has had a great season at texas southern

Pro Spotlight - Nick Loftin, Kansas City Royals UTIL

The spotlight falls on Nick Loftin! Yes, Nick has already been featured this week. However, Nick may finally have his chance to be an everyday player in the bigs with KC. Let me explain.

Loftin has been that 10th-11th guy in terms of playing time. Good enough to be on the big league roster, but has just been stuck behind some guys like Jonathon India, etc. With a wild card playing schedule, it's hard for anyone to get into a flow with sporadic playing time. Well, India went down for the season last week after surgery. Loftin had already been optioned to Omaha, but has led somewhat of a KC resurgence at the plate. The Royals had been STRUGGLING offensively. Enter Nick Loftin. After an early .320 Avg, he now sits at a .258 Avg. However, we can expect to see a lot more of him. It's just now up to him to do what he can to help KC win.

Obviously, you hate to see a player go down for the season, so we wish a good recovery to India, but we are also glad that Nick can finally get some regular playing time in the bigs.

Nick Loftin could emerge as an everyday starter in the royals lineup
