Playing for a higher spot in the upcoming Class 5A playoffs, El Reno High School’s baseball team pulled off one of its biggest doubleheader sweeps in close to a decade, taking two games from Guthrie.

El Reno snapped a five-game losing streak to the Bluejays with an 8-6 road win, then backed it up with a 7-3 victory at the Hub Reed Complex.

“We’ve battled through a lot of injury issues this year and we were able to keep it together against a solid Guthrie squad and win these two important district games,” said El Reno head coach Keith Hill.
