Schools like Warsaw, Versailles, Green Ridge, Eugene and others are struggling to fill out varsity rosters with experienced golfers. Cole Camp and Lincoln also have several new players to the sport on their teams. While this is great for the kids, those who love the game of golf would love to see more kids involved at an early age. If these kids playing now will stick with it then there should be some good golf teams around the area in the future.

Our spring sports edition always marks a busy time at the BCE. As the reporter and the photographer, I travel back and forth to the three schools, Warsaw, Lincoln and Cole Camp to take and retake pictures. Carrie Rieman lays out all of the pictures and sometimes has to work her magic on some of my less than perfect photos.
The girls like having their pictures taken for the most part. You will always  have one or two who complain that they don’t have any make up on that particular day.

Well, everybody who had any basketball logic at all had their hopes for a perfect NCAA Tournament perfect bracket go up in smoke when  No. 16 seed UMBC upset No.1 Virginia 75-54. The historic upset was made more unbelievable in that Virginia was the hands down favorite to win the tournament and the game wasn’t even close.  Anybody just seeing the score the following day would had thought it was backwards and they had it wrong.
