Florida High School Pitcher Throws Fourth Consecutive No-hitter

Never heard of New Port Richey, Florida? Mitchell High School? Patrick Schuster? Well then read up, kids. The Mitchell High senior tossed his 4th consecutive no-hitter on Monday night at his home field, northwest of Tampa. The strong-armed left hander struck out 17 to lift his team to a 5-0 win over rival high school, Pasco. The streak, which began April 3rd, has been witness to 60 strikeouts and a record of 7-0. “I never thought this would happen… I’m just having so much fun right now” remarked Schuster. Schuster, whose fastball tops in around 91 mph has signed with the University of Florida, but hasn’t ruled out going straight into the pros. The record for consecutive no-hitters in high school is six. Stay tuned for updates.
