LHS baseball falls in opener

? Brad Kincaid hit a three-run home run, and Devin Lauts had a pair of doubles, but Lawrence High’s baseball team fell to Shiloh Christian, 7-6, on Saturday in its season opener.

Kincaid’s shot cut the Lions’ four-run deficit to one run in the fifth inning.

“Kincaid absolutely crushed a three-run bomb,” LHS coach Brad Stoll said. “We had a lot of quality at-bats throughout the day. We answered every time they scored, but we couldn’t get it done at the end.”
