Lancers earn No. 2 post-season seed after Ankeny comeback There’s no denying that North Scott’s baseball team’s body of work is impressive, and Saturday’s 9-8 come-from-behind win over No. 8 Ankeny may just have been the crowning touch.

22-0 record rout fuels Lady Lancers to No. 1 regional seed It was a mixed-bag week for North Scott’s softball team, but by the time rain washed out Saturday’s action at the Linn-Mar/Alburnett Invitational, all still seemed well within Lancer World.

Veterans' Appreciation Night North Scott's baseball team will host its annual Veterans' Appreciation Night when Clinton comes to town for a non-conference game on Friday, July 1. All veterans will be granted free admission, and be introduced between the junior varsity and varsity games. They will also receive a free sandwich and drink from the North Scott Athletic Boosters.
