Bishop Gorman 8, Palo Verde 6
Bishop Gorman utilized a massive seven-run fourth inning to overcome an early deficit and edge out Palo Verde 8-6 on Thursday. The Panthers jumped out to a 4-0 lead through the first two frames, but the Gaels' bats came alive in the middle of the contest to flip the script. Despite a late push from Palo Verde, the Bishop Gorman bullpen held firm to preserve the narrow non-league victory.
The Gaels' offensive explosion was sparked by Connor Long, who delivered a three-RBI triple, and Alec Kajioka, who reached base three times and swiped three bases. Palo Verde out-hit the Gaels 10 to 6, led by three hits from Kyle Johnson and a multi-hit performance from Stone Amsden, but three defensive errors ultimately cost the Panthers. Avi Garg provided stabilizing relief for Gorman, throwing three solid innings to stifle the Panthers' momentum.

Galena 6, Reed 5
Galena snatchd a late-game victory over Reed on Thursday, plating two runs in the top of the seventh to secure a 6-5 win. The Grizzlies trailed 5-4 heading into the final frame before Russell Slamowitz delivered a clutch two-RBI single to flip the score. Reed had established an early lead behind home runs from Braxton Liguori and Landon Baker, but Galena's disciplined approach—drawing eight walks—eventually wore down the Raiders' staff.

The Diamondbacks' offense featured three home runs, providing the necessary cushion to hold off a late push from the Mustangs. F. Nevarez III earned the win on the mound, navigating through 5.1 innings and surrendering only two earned runs despite Shadow Ridge racking up six doubles.
The Diamondback attack was spearheaded by freshman Sebastian Mansell, who finished 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBIs while adding two stolen bases. Brody Griffith and Crue Smith also cleared the fences for Desert Oasis. Shadow Ridge's offense was paced by Evan Noble and Dylan Foster, who each collected two doubles, but the Mustangs were unable to overcome three costly defensive errors.

Durango 14, Foothill 8
Durango overcame an early deficit with a relentless late-inning offensive explosion to defeat Foothill 14-8 on Thursday. Foothill held a 7-0 lead heading into the bottom of the fifth, but the Trailblazers’ bats ignited, scoring 14 runs over the next two frames—including a nine-run sixth inning—to blow the game open. Despite the Falcons collecting nine hits, Durango's disciplined approach at the plate resulted in 11 walks, which proved to be the undoing of the Foothill pitching staff.
The Trailblazers' comeback was fueled by multi-hit games from Zaylen Alboro and Aiden Farrell, who combined for six RBIs and two triples. Foothill's Quinthus Mason provided the power for the Falcons, finishing 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBIs. Jace Lavea-Aldridge earned the win in relief, striking out four over 2.2 steady innings to shut down any hope of a Foothill counter-rally.

The game was tied heading into the bottom of the seventh when Jared Peters displayed ultimate plate discipline, drawing a bases-loaded walk to drive in the winning run. McQueen had established an early lead behind a two-run home run from Porter, but Douglas utilized nine team walks and a steady relief effort to stay within striking distance.
Bryce Hill earned the win for the Tigers, providing two dominant innings of scoreless relief with three strikeouts. Offensively, Douglas was led by leadoff man Peter Ziegler, who finished 3-for-4 with a triple, while McQueen's Porter and Mejia combined for six hits in the losing effort.
