BHS basketball players Ryne Carr, Lindsey Dall, and Scott Hathaway were named IBCA Academic All-State honorable mention.
Girls basketball coach Amy Brauman was named All-West coach of the year by the Indy Star.
For the first time that I can remember, the BHS baseball team is not ranked in the pre-season baseball poll. They didn't even get a vote. Is the dynasty coming to an end? Having gone the last 5 years without a sectional title, I guess the writing has been on the wall. We will see when the season opens on April 5th at North Central.
BHS softball opens the season next week with games against Southport on Tuesday and Western Boone on Thursday. Both games are at BBurg and start at 5pm.

Ugly weekend for Ball State baseball, softball, and basketball
The BSU baseball team got their second win of the season on Friday as they beat Charlotte 7-1. Cal Bowling pitched a gem, throwing 6 2/3 innings and not giving up a run. The rest of the weekend, the Cardinals were outscored 14-4 in defeats on Saturday and Sunday. BSU is 2-13 (RPI 212) on the season and host Dayton (7-7, 144 RPI) on Wednesday in their first home game of the year. The team will travel to Belmont (7-9, 52 RPI) for a 3-game series over the weekend.
The Cardinal softball team had a terrible weekend, losing all 5 games by a combined score of 42-6. Most of those 42 runs were part of the 21-0 thrashing that #2 Florida put out on Saturday, but even with that, 21 runs over the other 4 games will not get the job done. The team is now 11-10 on the season. They will travel to Troutville, VA to play in the Radford tournament this weekend. The tourney consists of 5 games (2 FRI, 2 SAT, 1 SUN) starting with games at 1p and 5p on Friday.
The BSU basketball team lost to Kent State in the semi-finals of the MAC tourney on Friday night. The Cards were down 1 point with 7 minutes left, but a 7-2 run by Kent State put the game away. After a scorching first half in which both teams shot the ball well (KSU 60%, BSU 56%), each team cooled off in the second half. BSU shot 32% in the second half, including 1-10 3-point shots. The Cards finish the season with a 19-13 record. I do not believe that they have a chance for a post-season tournament, but you never know....
