  • Eagles earn top district seed 5-...

     HEBRON ESTATES – One team was fighting for its goal. The other appeared to already feel it had reached its goal.

    With Alec Lush throwing a one-hit shutout, North Bullitt locked up its goal of winning yet another regular season District 23 title. That gives the Eagles the top seed in the upcoming tournament.

    For the Bullitt Central Cougars, head coach G.J. Moore wasn’t impressed with the effort. A victory could have set up a three-way tie for the quest for a top seed.

    At the end of the day, North Bullitt came away with a 5-0 victory.

    The victory left the Eagles in great shape to do what they’ve done since joining the 23rd District -- win the championship.

    After Dylan Kleitz pitched 9-plus spectacular innings, Alec Lush had to work out of a one-out jam in the 10th to keep the game going.
