After winning their first two games rather handley against Carroll Academy (11-1) and Strayhorn (20-5), North Delta School suffered its first loss of the season Saturday (Feb.17) to Pillow Academy, 14-4 in six innings.

The Mustangs broke open a 5-2 game in the fourth with five runs in the fifth and four in the sixth. North Delta was limited to four hits as Rowan Gordan, Hunter Carpenter, Herron Williams and Baylor Scammon all singled. Gordon drove in two runs while Scammon and Alex Jackson drove in a run.
