HP Extends Winning Streak With Shutout
With the second half of the District 11-5A schedule underway, Highland Park still has yet to be seriously challenged.
The Scots (16-10, 8-0) completed a season sweep of Carrollton Newman Smith with a 4-0 road win on April 5, as Aaron Plotkin earned the complete-game victory with 12 strikeouts on the mound. Patrick Shearer and Corbin Montayne tallied two hits apiece to pace the offense.
HP try to keep its season-best five-game winning streak intact during a pair of district contests this weekend, at Conrad on Friday and at home against Bryan Adams on Saturday.
In other schedule news, a nondistrict matchup at Waco Midway, which was postponed because of rain on April 6, has been rescheduled as a postseason tuneup on April 27.
