San Angelo Beats Santa Fe in Championship of the Frontier Wednesday, September 16th , 1914 The San Angelo Killer Cacti earned their 2nd Championship of the Frontier title and now have all winter to spend basking in the glory, while the beaten Santa Fe Hollyhocks will have plenty of time to wonder what went wrong. San Angelo became the League of the Free Frontier champion for 1914 with a 2-1 triumph to capture the series 5-4. "Both clubs are talented. We just made fewer mistakes than they did," winning manager Disibodo Aquino said to the press corps at the postgame press conference. "We made the crucial plays and got the timely hits." Santa Fe skipper Héctor García agreed with that assessment, saying his club turned out to be "a little weak on fundamentals" at crucial times. "I have a sneaking suspicion we will be working on fundamentals a lot next spring," he said. On the way to the Championship of the Frontier championship, the Killer Cacti ended up in first place in the Eastern Association Odessa Circuit and compiled a 78-54 record during the regular season.
