Belton Tigers Advance to Semifinals

Belton has yet again swept another playoff series. They beat Richardson Lake Highlands 5-1 on Saturday advancing them to the Class 5A Region II semifinals at Sam Houston State. The game was tied 1-1 in the fifth before Belton rallied after a walk off home run in sixth inning to take out the Wildcats in Game 2 of the series. This may be the last of my baseball posts for awhile since both teams I have been covering are going out of town as the continue. I’m hoping to start experimenting with some video projects soon so stay tuned.

Belton senior Shane Hoelscher shouts after hitting his school-record 14th homer of the year in the sixth inning, sparking the seventh-ranked Tigers to a series-clinching 5-1 victory over Richardson Lake Highlands on Saturday. Belton (33-6) advanced to play Klein Collins in the Class 5A Region II semifinals. (Andrew Buckley/Special to the Telegram)
