The Varsity Dons travelled to Brentwood on Tuesday to take on Liberty High School in the 1st round of the NCS Division 1 playoffs. Unfortunately, the Dons ran into a very good pitcher and lost in a 3-2 heartbreaker. Rather than recounting the game, it’s worth focusing on the remarkable season this team put together. Before the season started, MaxPreps,…
