VYPE Coaches Corner: Atascocita Baseball Coach Jeremy O'Neill -- 6A-D1 State Semis Preview
Under the leadership of second-year head coach Jeremy O'Neill, the Atascocita baseball program has made tremendous strides since being eliminated in the third round of the playoffs a year ago.
After narrowly losing the opener against Pearland (5-6) in last week's Region III-6A-D1 Final, the Eagles rallied to not only tie the series, but eventually punch their ticket to the UIL State Tournament -- marking the first occurrence the team has done so since 2014.
Now, the Eagles are faced with the opportunity to advance to the State Final for the first time ever, when facing Lake Travis at Texas A&M's Blue Bell Park this week.
VYPE's Matthew Ogle spoke with AHS head coach Jeremy O'Neill, detailing Atascocita's remarkable comeback against Pearland, and the game-plan for Lake Travis.
