Benet baseball is already preparing for the regional semifinal it will be hosting on May 22. The seventh-seeded Redwings will play the winner of the No. 9 Plainfield North-No. 23 East Aurora game, but it's clear where their focus is right now.
"We've seen Plainfield North last few days. We got a group of people there (against Romeoville) today," Benet coach Jeff Bonebrake said after Wednesday's 7-6 victory over Marian Catholic. "We'll see. They're very good."
Bonebrake described Plainfield North as a team with a strong pitching staff, and a lineup that hits in spots.
"I think they're a lot like us," Bonebrake said. "It'll be a battle for us."
