The Hayden baseball team defeated the San Carlos Braves last Tuesday, 10 – 0. The Lobos bounced back after consecutive losses to Desert Christian and Miami.
The Lobos, who started the season 1 – 15, had won two of their last four games heading into the matchup versus seventh-ranked Ray last Thursday. Ray defeated the Lobos in that game, 16 – 3.
With three games left their season, the young Lobos will look to use this year as a learning experience as they begin preparing and improving for next year.
Upcoming schedule: Apr. 23 @ Duncan (4:00 p.m.), Apr. 28 @ Pima (3:45 p.m.), and Apr. 29 vs. Mesa Prep (4:00 p.m.).
