As the Foothill Technology High School (Foothill Tech) baseball team got ready to go for their last league game of the year on April 28, they honored the seniors that helped them get to where they are with a Senior Night. The Dragons entered the game undefeated in league play, and by the first inning, it already appeared that their streak will continue as they jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead. This lead only continued to grow in subsequent innings with Xander Belchere ’22 pitching an amazing game, barely letting anyone on Santa Clara’s team get on base, as well as an amazing offense from almost every Foothill Tech player. Throughout the game, the Dragons racked up an impressive tally of hits, bringing an ever growing number of runs to the plate. By the end of the eighth inning, Santa Clara decided to forfeit the game and the Dragons remained undefeated in league play with a triumphant 10-0 win.
