The Jesuit High School baseball team captured the District title Thursday (May 4), erupting for 10 runs and allowing Jefferson just two hits to prevail 10-0 at Jefferson.

With the victory, the No. 1 seed Tigers claimed the District crown for the sixth consecutive season, including 3-for-3 under head coach Miguel Menendez.

Weaver led the way, going 4-for-4 with 5 RBI and a home run. Brewer and Mocny both were 3-for-3, and Clark had two hits and two runs. 

On the mound, Jack Anderson '18 went four innings and Price Sartor '17 two, each allowing just one hit.
