A huge golf win, plus a win and a loss (VIDEO)


In the fifth Central Minnesota Conference meet of the season, the B-B-E Jaguars boys' golf team competed at the Little Falls course today with Royalton as the host school. The Jaguars came away with a huge win by 3 strokes, as they defeated second-place Paynesville by a 167 to 170 margin. Also, Walker Winter and Hudson Reed are both in the Top 8 of the current CMC standings.

Next: the boys' golf team has an 18-hole invitational at Sauk Centre's Greystone Golf Club.

In home fastpitch action today...
With the weather stopping a home game on Monday to take place, the B-B-E Jaguars fastpitch team hosted a doubleheader today featuring two teams coming to town.

In the first game, the Jaguars faced Long Prairie-Grey Eagle in a non-conference game. The Jaguars put up some big innings on their way to an 11-1 win in five innings. LP-GE, who competes in Section 6A, fell to 2-6 overall.

Against LP-GE, the Jaguars had just 4 hits but took advantage of 8 walks against just 2 strikeouts.

Here's a video featuring the postgame huddle after the LP-GE win:


In game two, the Jaguars faced Paynesville Area in a CMC border battle that started just before 6 p.m. The Bulldogs won 13-1 as they kept pace with undefeated (9-0) Kimball Area in the CMC standings.

Paynesville, who is a half game behind Kimball, out-hit the Jaguars by a 12 to 5 margin. Two Bulldogs pitchers combined for 8 strikeouts with just 2 walks.

The Jaguars sit at 7-3 overall with their best record through 10 games since the 2008 season. In 2008, they went 11-5 in the regular season before the Section 5A playoffs. Next: the Jaguars travel to River's Edge Softball Park in Waite Park on Thursday to face Holdingford (3-6, 2-4) in a CMC doubleheader. The first game is set for 4 p.m.
