Meanwhile, Omaha North posted their closest win since May 1, 2025 on Monday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 5-3 victory over Lincoln High. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Wednesday as neither team is afraid to steal. Blair has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 2.9 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Omaha North struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 3.5 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Blair got the 'W' in their previous matchup back in April of 2025 against Omaha North by a conclusive 11-1 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bears since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
