Wildcats aim for history

We've been wrapped up in this run Cedar Cliff is making as the No. 16 seed.

Lost in the shuffle is the fact that Mechanicsburg is gunning for its first district baseball title as well.

On Thursday at Sovereign Bank Stadium in York, the fourth-seeded Wildcats (17-5) meet second-seeded Twin Valley (22-2) at 4 p.m. in the District 3 Class AAA final.

Accoring to Ryan Hartman, the assistant athletic director at Mechanicsburg Area Senior High School, the school has played for three district titles and lost them all.

Prior to this year, the Wildcats, who also locked up a state tournament bid with Tuesday's 8-2 win over Palmyra, played for district gold in 1984 and 1999.
