Baseball: Vaqueros enter Northern 3A Region Tournament as No. 2 seed

Robert Perea, The Fernley Reporter

After rampaging through the second half of the league season with wins in 10 of their last 12 games against Northern 3A East Division opponents, the Fernley High School baseball team enters the Northern 3A Region Tournament starting Thursday in Winnemucca as the No. 2 seed

The Vaqueros finished first in the East Division with a 15-4 record and 22 points in the standings, but South Tahoe went 20-1 in the West Division and had 26 total points in the standings to earn the No. 1 seed.

The Vaqueros will face either No. 3 seed Fallon or No. 6 seed Dayton at 4:30 p.m. Thursday. Fallon and Dayton play each other at 11:30 a.m. If they win the first game, the Vaqueros would face one of either South Tahoe, Truckee or North Valleys at 2 p.m. Friday. With a loss in the first game, the Vaqueros would have to fight through the losers’ bracket, starting at 9 a.m. Friday.

The Vaqueros finished the season winning five of their last six games in the last two weeks. They swept a three-game series from Spring Creek April 29-30, winning 6-3, 17-2 and 20-10. Last weekend, the Vaqueros lost the Friday game at Elko, 14-4, then swept Saturday’s doubleheader, 11-6 and 5-2.

For a large municipal facility like the indoor-outdoor Fernley Swimming Pool located at 300 Cottonwood Lane, a complete ground-up commercial build or major structural renovation typically spans 6 to 12 months or longer when factoring in large-scale engineering, public municipal permitting, specialized commercial HVAC/roofing, and health department inspections. The current renovation has been- The Fernley Swimming Pool has been closed for approximately six to seven months since late February 2026 for a major roof replacement and facility renovation. Now you sat October. Soooo 8 months for a new roof. The picture shows no other renovations.

It smells like sewage and it can be bad enough that people don’t want to be outside or open their windows. It would be helpful to get an investigative journalist help the Fernley residents get a clear answer from the City, NDEP, and any involved facilities. I was really disappointed that the smell was not disclosed by my realtor when I moved here. I enjoy Fernley and am seeing the improvements that are being made.
