In his second at-bat of the inning, Mack ended the game with a single through the right side to score Reuben and sophomore Braxton Boyle to clinch the win for Jesuit.
 
vs. Rockwall
 
The Rangers saw another strong pitching performance match an eyebrow raising offensive outing en route to a 7-3 win over Rockwall. Lawlar added his second home run of the day in the third inning as Mack and Lynch drove in two runs apiece. Chavez and Reuben secured two hits each as Chavez added his first triple of the season.
 
Junior Alek Houillion went four strong innings with three runs on two hits and four strikeouts to earn his third consecutive win of the year before sophomore David Day took over in his varsity debut, throwing two innings of no-hit work, striking out three of his six batters faced.
 
Jesuit jumped onto Rockwall for three runs in the first inning off of a single up the right field line by Boyle and a two-run double to center by Mack. Lawlar's home run and a two-run double by Lynch bolstered the lead to six runs before Rockwall plated two runs in the third and an additional run in the fifth to cut the Rangers' six-run lead in half.
 
Day entered the game in the bottom of the fifth Reuben plated Chavez with a single to right field to score Jesuit's final run of the game before Day shut the door on the Yellow Jackets. Day entered the game in the bottom of the sixth and held the lead despite a runner scoring on a failed pickoff attempt, recording the final two outs of the inning via strikeout to send Jesuit into the seventh with a three-run lead. Day finished off the Yellow Jackets in the sixth with a strikeout to start the frame, closing out the bout with a runner at first.
