Lions hand Falcons 5-inning spanking

May 2, 2013

WALKERTON — John Glenn started out the season on a 10-win tear, but the Falcons suddenly seem to be slumping. Bremen’s baseball team is on the rise, meanwhile.
Headed in opposite directions, when the two teams met at The Nest in Walkerton Wednesday, it made for an old-fashioned spanking.
Bremen plated seven runs in the top of the first on the strength of six hits and four Glenn errors, and the Lions never looked back in a 13-2, five-inning defeat of the Falcons on the road.

Triton’s Anderson signs with Holy Cross

May 1, 2013

BOURBON — It’s not often that the coach of a rival conference team gives you a helping hand. But that seems to have been just what happened for Triton senior Shana Anderson.
When Holy Cross women’s basketball coach Aimee Niespodziany was on the lookout for guard prospects, New Prairie head coach Doug Matthys pointed her in the direction of repeat Northern State Conference-champion Triton’s backcourt. Niespodziany reached out to Lady Trojans coach Adam Heckaman for some tape, and when he obliged the Saints skipper found her next recruit in Anderson.
