Shaylen Patel put up the most strikeouts he's had over his last four games on Thursday. He struck out six batters over four innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off two hits.

Patel's strong effort led Niles West over Highland Park and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:45 p.m. on Friday. The Wolves will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 121 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Patel? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
