There is a logjam at the top of the Great Plains Conference baseball race heading into the final weekend. Six teams are within two games of the lead and two of those, Morningside and Briar Cliff, close out the season with a doubleheader on Saturday. Morningside is 14-6 and coach Jim Sholten says his team cannot afford to look past Mount Marty on Friday. Sholten says there is plenty of motivation for all the teams in the race as the champion of the conference tournament will also get a spot in the national tournament. Briar Cliff came into today’s action with the conference lead with a rexcotd of 14-5.
