Steinmetz College Prep had lost five straight at home, but on Friday they dropped their record down to 4-14 to make it six. They lost 9-3 to the Chicago Academy Cougars. The Silver Streaks were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Cougars apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
Elias Flores made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and went 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI. That home run marked the first that he has launched this season.
