KABC Has RHS Ranked Seventh

    With the Rossville High School web site down for the last couple weeks and the Capital not publishing baseball and softball scores,  it is difficult to get information about the teams.  Any parent, teacher, player, or alumni that can send info about the teams performances would be helping a great deal.  Just e-mail any info to Frank.Ruff@juno.com.

    The April 22 Kansas Association of Baseball Coaches ranking of 3A baseball teams has Rossville in seventh place.  Silver Lake, with their undefeated 12-0 season   was in first place, not an unusual event.

Baseball Team Splits at Perry-Lecompton

     The Bulldogs  baseball win streak ended at 9 as they lost to  Perry-Lecompton in the second game of a double header.   The Dawgs were up 1-0 going into the bottom of the ninth on the opponents field,  but a bases loaded wild pitch allowed the Kaws to pick up a 2-1 win.  Rossville won the first game 15-4 and is now  9-1 overall.
    Marcus Catron still hasn’t allowed an earned run and has struck out 35.

Duane Zlatnik (08) Ready for NFL Draft

    Duane Zlatnick has been splitting time between the KU campus and Rossville as he prepares for the NFL draft on April 27.  His old high school coach, Steve Buhler is helping him prepare for tryouts as well as the coaching staff at KU.    Several teams have expressed interest in Duane though it likely will be in the later rounds of the draft,  or,  as a free agent if he is not drafted.
