    • March 26, 2026

    Orange Lutheran baseball senior right-hander Gary Morse struck out 16 in his one-hitter Thursday in the Lancers’ 3-0 win over Regis Jesuit of Colorado on the first day of the National High School Invitational at North Carolina.

    Morse’s 16 strikeouts ties an NHSI record.

    Hamilton Friedberg doubled and drove in a run for Orange Lutheran (4-1).

    Morse was the Orange County Pitcher of the Year last season. He signed with Tennessee.

    Orange Lutheran, a three-time NHSI champion, plays Trinity Christian of Florida today in the second round.

    CIF Southern Section teams Harvard-Westlake and St. John Bosco also won their NHSI first-round games Thursday. Harvard-Westlake beat Wakefield of North Carolina, 16-0. Bosco defeated Nolensville of Tennessee, 14-1.

    The NHSI is played at the USA Baseball complex at Cary, N.C.
