Lawrence High baseball game washed out

Lawrence High’s baseball game against Shawnee Mission Northwest in the River City Baseball Festival on Friday was canceled because of inclement weather.

LHS coach Brad Stoll said his players were disappointed by the cancellation, mostly because they wanted to build on this week’s momentum.

“But hey, that’s how baseball in Kansas is,” Stoll said. “It’s beautiful one night, and absolutely miserable the next day.”

Stoll said the Lions and Cougars will try to schedule a game for a later date.

Weather permitting, Lawrence High will play Blue Springs (Mo.) at 4:30 today at Kansas University’s Hoglund Ballpark.
