As the NSAA District Baseball Tournament gets underway across Nebraska, the spotlight today shines on two area teams ready to make their postseason push.

In Class A, North Platte High School (7-16) heads on the road to face Norfolk (7-16) in the A-2 play-in game. First pitch is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. in Norfolk. The Bulldogs, looking to shake off a tough regular season, will aim to extend their year with a win in a matchup of evenly matched records. Fans can watch the game live on the WB’s Fun Center Livestream at NorthPlattePost.com or tune in on AM 1410 and FM 98.1 for the call.

Meanwhile, in Class C-6, the Maxwell/North Platte St. Pat’s co-op team (3-5) will also hit the diamond this afternoon. They’ll take on a tough Lincoln Christian squad (11-5) in the district semifinals, with first pitch set for 4:30 p.m. at Mount Michael. MSP is hoping to pull off an upset and earn a shot at the district final.

Both local teams know that at this stage of the season, it's win or go home. Let the postseason drama begin.
