Baseball lost in the first round of District Friday 10-3 to KC Lutheran. Lucas Mason pitched well through the first four innings, until he maxed out his pitch count. Trent Scotten led the way with two hits. The Tigers gained valuable experience throughout the year. They played a very difficult schedule and gave their best effort most nights. Thank you to Trent and Austin for a great career and their senior leadership to the team.
