Schedules Through the Following Week for Jaguars Fastpitch, Baseball, Track and Field, and Girls Golf

First of all...Congradulations goes to the B-B-E Jaguars Speech team, who won the Sub-Section 5A-19 championship on Saturday at Sauk Centre. It is the second year in a row that they will advance to the Section 5A meet as a team. What an accomplishment. They were also runners-up in 5A-19 for four seasons prior to 2007. The Section 5A meet is this Saturday, April 12, at Melrose Area.

Here's what I have for the following week or so for the Jaguars. The items in bold are games that happen on Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th. Then I just heard (Sunday night right now) that the Alexandria area is getting hammered with an ice-storm, which may spread over the B-B-E area overnight. The forecast for the next five days sounds pretty bad, mainly with highs in the 40s, along with precipitation on Tuesday for sure.

I also want to give mention to special accomplishments of the B-B-E Blaze Junior Olympics volleyball team for the past two weekends. Today at St.Cloud, the JO-17 team was champions, defeating a solid Bemidji team in the title match. Last Sunday, they won a tournament at Rockford. From what I heard, they won in 2-0 sets in every match today and last Sunday! Whew!

After making "State" in 2005 for the first time ever, then losing two all-state hitters and other talented seniors to graduation in May 2007, I was unsure if we'd see any "hiccups" in the volleyball program. Obviously, that's not happening.
