WPIAL
There is playoff baseball on WDAD this evening, as Indiana High takes on Blackhawk in a WPIAL Quad-A quarterfinal game at Seneca Valley High School. Blackhawk is the number two seed, having knocked off Thomas Jefferson, 5-4 in nine innings last Wednesday, and Indiana is seeded 7th after a 12-4 win over Laurel Highlands.
Indiana was eliminated from the WPIAL playoffs last year by Blackhawk. Coach Bill Thompson says the guys are eager to play the Cougars again.
Thompson says Gavin Homer will start the game for Indiana, but he is ready to throw any of his pitchers should they be needed.
The airtime for the game tonight on WDAD, 100.3 FM and 1450 AM, is 6:15.
