In fact, the Highlanders are just nine runs from being 8-3 instead of 3-8 in league games. And they’re a very young team. After falling 2-1 at […]

The Bearcats scored 10 runs in the bottom of the first inning before the Wolfpack got a single out. And they would cruise to a 13-1 victory. With four games to play in the regular season, BHS remains two […]
