Alvin High Sehooloclaimed its first undisput-
ed softball district championship since 1991
and advanced to the Region III Semifinals for
the third straight season, finishing the 2002
campaign with an impressive 26-9 record.
Four-year varsity letterman and ‘02 Houston
area ERA champion Jessica Denham closed
her brilliant Lady Jacket career as the all-time
win leader in softball school history with 72
victories and also broke new marks for career
K's (723) and strikeouts (236) in one season.
Tiffani Craft also set team records for stolen
bases, hits and runs scored. Lindsay Perry
joined Denham, Heather Ackley, Kelly Patton
and Torie Perry in driving in double-figure
RBI numbers, while the trio of Kayla Knippa,
Lindsay Perry and Danya Whatley provided
Alvin with one of the fastest outfields around
the Houston area. Catcher Jamie Liles also
gave the Lady Jackets solid defense behind
the plate. Other team highlights during the
season included the Lady Jackets capturing
the North Shore Tournament title, head
coach Anrea Cash gaining her 100th career
win here and the Lady Jackets' first ever sea-
son sweep of county nemesis Brazoswood.
