BASEBALL

HIGHLAND 8, RIGBY 2

At Halliwell Park, Highland beat Rigby 8-2 to sweep the three-game conference series.

Senior Scott Baker allowed just one run in his complete-game effort. The right-hander allowed a quartet of hits and three walks while fanning five. At the plate, Jaxon Christensen and Colton Sneddon both had a pair of hits.

“Scott Baker threw a good game. We hit the ball pretty well. We ran the bases OK,” Highland coach Christian Colonel said. “And we are tired of the cold weather. To be honest, it was kind of a sloppy game and we came out with a good win.”

The victory, too, made it a now-perfect 6-0 start to district play for Highland.

“Couldn’t have scripted a better way to start the first six games of conference play,” Colonel said. “We still have to dial some things in but I hope we’re peaking at the right time over the next few weeks.”

Highland (12-5, 6-0 5A District 5-6) plays at Thunder Ridge on Wednesday at 4 p.m.
