Prep baseball: ...and the Mustangs make three.
(baseballgloves.us)
SARASOTA - Lakewood Ranch became the lastest local team to advance at the Sarasota Baseball Classic on Tuesday.
The Mustangs needed just five innings to beat Fort Myers Bishop Verot, 11-1, to qualify for the semifinals of the Elite Bracket. They will face Naples Barron Collier on Wednesday at a site and time to be determined.
Manatee and Palmetto also won Tuesday, and will play in the semifinals Wednesday of the Premier Bracket.
Manatee meets Miami Sunset and Palmetto plays Royal Palm Beach.
Not a bad showing for Manatee County, which hasn't crowned a champion at the Sarasota Baseball Classic since the Hurricanes won in 2001.
This is the tournament's 26th season and the second time it has been split into two brackets.
Check back with Prep Rally later tonight for Wednesday's updated schedule, and check out Wednesday's edition of The Bradenton Herald for stories on today's games.
