First Baptist Academy Baseball

Adam Smith has had no problem following in his brother’s footsteps. At a small school like First Baptist Academy, the fact that he did isn’t a surprise.

A youthful First Baptist Academy squad was no match for the senior-laden visitors from St. Petersburg-Canterbury.

When the baseball regional playoffs start today, several local high school teams will be coming off lengthy breaks. That's good or bad depending on who you ask.

Regional tournament pairings
