Parkland Baseball Primed for Playoff Push
The Trojan baseball team boasts a 12-2 overall record with six games to go before the Lehigh Valley Conference and District 11 playoffs begin.
The Parkland High School baseball team is preparing for its playoff push with six games remaining in the regular season.
The Trojans sport a 12-2 overall record and an 8-1 mark in Lehigh Valley Conference play. They trail Whitehall High School by one game in the loss column for first place in the LVC North division.
Parkland finishes its season May 9 with a home game against Whitehall that will likely determine if the Trojans can garner at least a share of the LVC North crown.
