The Abilene High baseball team is finding its groove in a wide-open District 4-5A race at the right time.

Saturday’s 4-0 win over Lubbock High at Blackburn Field capped a 3-0 week for the Warbirds, who moved into a first-place tie with Lubbock Cooper in the district standings after Wylie lost 4-3 to Lubbock Monterey in extra innings across town.

AHS beat Cooper 6-0 on Tuesday in the Crosstown Showdown before a thrilling 3-1 road win over Monterey on Friday night.
