James Kellogg was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, pitching two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits.

Fans could be in store for some top-tier slugging on Wednesday. Regis Jesuit hasn't had any problems when it comes to power this season, having averaged 1.3 home runs per game. However, it's not like Heritage struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 0.5 home runs. With so much power on both teams, it'll be down to the pitchers to keep the mound locked down.
Everything went Regis Jesuit's way against Heritage in their previous matchup back in May of 2025, as Regis Jesuit made off with a 10-0 victory. Will the Raiders repeat their success, or do the Eagles have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
