A bright star in South Texas softball was lost over the weekend.

Angelina Terrazas, a Southwest High School Dragons softball standout, died Saturday after a battle with ovarian cancer.

Assistant coach Taylor Doege, who worked with Terrazas as her pitching coach, said the team is deeply saddened and grieving the loss of not just their team leader but also a friend they cherished like a sister.

Doege remembered how Terrazas’s powerful competitive spirit was evident to everyone and inspired her teammates to emulate it in every game.

“She was a fierce competitor. They played hard behind her because they knew her work ethic,” she said. “She would call them out and like hold them accountable, and that is like what you need in the leader, somebody who’s going to lift everybody up.”
