This weekend @FiveToolCA 16U tourney pitched 4 innings of relief (2H, 1R, 1BB, 3SO). @brgpiratessd 2026 came up short on the comeback but we didn't stop battling. First time I made an out this way while on the hill #NeverGiveUp @PrepBaseballCA @PBRmonk @LesLukach @stadirtbags

Honored to be named to the All-Academic Team tonight at our awards banquet after wrapping up my junior year with a 4.13 GPA

[Declan Higgins @DeclanJHiggins]

Grateful to be selected for 2nd Team Western League. This season the Western League was arguably the most competitive league in San Diego (represented 3 of the 4 Open Division Semifinalist) and stacked with committed talent.

Thank you @KUSINews @KUSIPPR for covering our game. Great team win for @stadirtbags in our Western League opener. The league is stacked with some of the most talented teams in San Diego who we will be facing over the next few weeks.

Declan Higgins (‘27 CA) was dealing tonight against Pt Loma going 5, allowing 3 hits, 1 run and struck out 3 without allowing a walk. Worked w/ tempo and located, keeping everything on the lower half and inducing soft contact. Didn’t allow a hit until the 5th. FB sat 79-83 coupled w/ a CB/SL combo (68/73) w/ 2500+ RPM #PGHS @stadirtbags @PG_Uncommitted
