North Lake is riding a five-game winning streak, following Monday's 7-4 win over Joliet Junior College on a neutral site field at Panola College. The Blazers swept a three-game series from Dallas College Cedar Valley last week, winning two one-run games and the second of two 11-inning games by two runs.

Blazers third baseman Brayden McCallum went 3 for 4 with three RBI Monday. Shortstop Jesse Orozco was 3 for 5 with a double and two RBI.
