Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask North County). They were the clear victors by a 15-1 margin over the Meade Mustangs on Tuesday. With that win, the Knights brought their scoring average up to 6.5 runs per game.
Nic Burton was a standout: he scored two runs and stole three bases while going 1-for-1. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in March of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaiden Cummings, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs and one triple.
North County always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .606. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
