Texas Iron Spikes would like to congratulate Kendal Carrillo on an outstanding career pitching for the University of Texas baseball team! Kendal, a senior from Sweetwater, Texas, joined Iron Spikes during the Fall 2008 semester and has been pitching for the Horns since the 2009 season.
Over the past three years, Kendal has served as a prime example of excellence in both athletics and academics. As a junior in 2010, Kendal posted a win-loss record of 3-0 and an Earned Run Average of 1.45. During his senior season, he went 6-1 with an ERA of 2.33, the 5th best ERA on the team. In addition, he had 31 strikeouts in 38.2 innings pitched and only allowed 1 home run during the entire season. Kendal's contributions helped the Horns earn their 34th College World Series berth.
From Fall 2008 to Spring 2010, Kendal was on the Big 12 Commissioner's Honor Roll. He was named to the Academic All-Big 12 Second Team in 2010 and the Academic All-Big 12 First Team in 2011. All of his accomplishments came while pursuing a Master in Professional Accounting degree from the McCombs School of Business.
It is safe to say that Kendal has represented both his Rookie Class of Fall 2008 and Texas Iron Spikes as a whole admirably. He is an exemplar of the success that emerges from the University of Texas at Austin. We wish Kendal the best of luck in all his future endeavors. Hook'em!
The purpose of this blog is to keep in touch with alumni, family, and friends of the Texas Iron Spikes, as well as to showcase what makes us THE premier fraternal, service, and spirit organization at the University of Texas at Austin.

Let The Games Begin

| Iron Spikes in Omaha during UT's 2009 CWS trip |
The Texas Longhorn baseball team kicks off its 34th College World Series run with a Big 12-SEC showdown.
After beating Arizona State in the Super Regionals in Austin, TX, the Horns took their talents to Omaha, NE in hopes of winning their seventh College World Series title.
Opening Weekend puts No. 5 Texas against No. 1 Florida. The two teams have faced off only twice before, and Texas leads the series 2-0. Both games came during the 2005 College World Series, when Texas won its last national championship.
Watch the game tonight at 6 pm central time on ESPN, or listen on KVET AM 1300 The Zone. Iron Spikes members have already made their way to Omaha, so don’t forget to look for them in the crowd!
