Tyler Legacy catcher Mason Blake looks to make the tag at home plate against Rockwall-Heath on Friday night at Mike Carter Field.

Five Tyler Legacy Red Raiders were named to the first team of the All-District 10-6A baseball team, the league’s coaches announced.

Pitchers Lucas Grundy and George Rippy, infielder Luke Davis, outfielder Preston Newberry and junior designated hitter Mason Blake were all named to the first team.

Grundy, a junior, was 5-3 on the mound with a 1.44 ERA, 57 strikeouts and 30 walks in 63 innings. Rippy, a senior, was 6-2 with a 2.36 ERA, 46 strikeouts and 26 walks in 50.1 innings.

Davis, a sophomore, hit .298 with two triples, eight RBIs and 13 runs scored. Newberry, a senior, hit .258 with six RBIs and 22 runs scored.

Rockwall-Heath, which advanced to the Class 6A semifinals this season after winning the 2021 Class 6A state championship, captured four superlatives. Rockwall, which faced Rockwall-Heath in the Class 6A Region II finals for the second year in a row, grabbed the other three superlatives.
