The Heritage Eagles are taking a road trip to challenge the Regis Jesuit Raiders at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Heritage came out on top against Douglas County on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive four-run fifth inning. The Eagles skirted past the Huskies 6-4. The win was nothing new for the Eagles as they're now sitting on three straight.

Fans could be in store for some top-tier slugging on Wednesday. Heritage hasn't had any problems when it comes to power this season, having averaged 0.5 home runs per game. However, it's not like Regis Jesuit struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 1.3 home runs. With so much power on both teams, it'll be down to the pitchers to keep the mound locked down.
Heritage suffered a grim 10-0 defeat to Regis Jesuit in their previous meeting back in May of 2025. Can the Eagles avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
