On the hitting side, Luis Nino was a standout: he scored three runs and stole Two bases. while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Leonardo Alvarez, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4.

The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. Edinburg North is on a 16-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-13.
Looking ahead, Laredo LBJ will square off against Del Rio at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
