The Highlands Bluebirds baseball team (3-3 overall) is back at .500 on the season with a 6-1 non-region win over the Bishop Brossart Mustangs at Highland Park on Saturday.

Highlands scored four runs in the bottom of the first and never looked back. The Bluebirds had 10 hits to five for the Mustangs led by Kyle Rust's 3-for-3 effort with two runs scored. Ricky Raisor doubled and had two runs batted in.

Highlands recorded three stolen bases in the win. Rust had two and Brady Gosney snagged the other.

Raisor (2-1) picked up the pitching win throwing the first two innings and striking out three. Ethan Doty, Drew Rom and Kyle Finfrock also saw action on the mound. The four combined to strike out 11 Mustangs.

Highlands heads to western Kentucky to play several games in the Madisonville Invitational Tournament for Spring Break. The Bluebirds take on University Heights from Hopkinsville of the 2nd Region on Monday at 7 p.m.
