By Chuck Licata The Llano Yellowjackets were state-ranked in Texas Class 3A baseball when they came to Liberty Hill Tuesday (March 29) to play Mike Kristan’s Panthers.

Final Score by Chuck Licata Amazing what you can find out with one conversation. Before Billy Walker (Door-2-Door Realty in Liberty Hill) and I commenced the Liberty Hill/Salado softball broadcast on Panthers Prime Time last Tuesday night, we got into a conversation about the Liberty Hill softball field. Simply put, did the softball field have [...]

Instead, the action came from The Hill Volleyball Classic tournament, a first-of-its kind fundraiser for the 2011 Liberty Hill Project [...]
