Jaguars Fastpitch Wins Home Game Over Eden Valley-Watkins 8-1, Jaguars Baseball Falls in Nine Inning Marathon 5-4 on Walk-Off Home Run at Eden Valley


The Jaguars Fastpitch raised their record to 3-0 on the young season with a solid 8-1 win over visiting Eden Valley-Watkins (0-1 CMC, 0-1) in their third Central Minnesota Conference game. It was also a key win over a fellow Section 5A team, as the Eagles drop from Class AA (Section 5AA) down to 5A.

The Jaguars' 3-0 record is the best start for the Fastpitch team since the 1990s. I hope to do some research over the weekend to find out more information about past seasons for this program at B-B-E.

The Jaguars baseball team fell in a very heartbreaking game 5-4 in nine innings at CMC rival Eden Valley-Watkins in the season opener for both teams.

On Friday, the Baseball team hosts Pierz (5:00) at Beier Field in Regal, while the Fastpitch team travels the short trip to Paynesville Area for a 4:30 non-conference game. It is the first matchup between the Bulldogs and our Jaguars since the early part of this decade.
