(La Porte, IN) - The last La Porte team to win a state title in high school baseball will be honored this evening.

“I don’t know how 25 years went so quickly.  That’s my first thought,” he said.

 

McDonald said he’s looking forward to seeing his former teammates and reminiscing about the season still clearly embedded in his memory.

 

“The biggest thing about life, in general, is the people.   So, I’m excited to see my teammates. My teammates were the biggest part of that championship,” he said.

 

That team will be honored before the game against New Prairie, which is scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
