The Baseball Tigers lost tonight at home against the Tipton Cardinals 16-0. The Tigers showed some improvement at the plate putting several balls in play. Logan Dove and Trent Scotten went one for two from the plate. Lane Fox, Weston Crawford, and Austin Warner hit the ball hard, just right at the Cardinal outfielders. Nick Stilfield made his first start, and made a nice play on a fly ball to record an out. The Tigers are in action again on Thursday, at home, against Stover (weather permitting).

Due to the presence of emergency personnel in the front of the school, we will be dismissing students from the back of the school by the gym today. Please be patient with us in this last-minute change. Thank you!

Athletic Update for Baseball and Softball Games: Contest start times have been moved up to 4:00 p.m. See you a little earlier than originally planned. Good Luck Tigers!

Green Ridge Boy’s Golf ⛳️⛳️⛳️ Match @ Clinton Country Club vs. Windsor & Concordia High School Due to the weather Green Ridge’s first week of golf tournaments got postponed, so this was the season tee off for the 2022 year. Sam Verbovshchuk tied for 1st 🥇 place tonight with a personal best 47. Sam has worked really hard over the last year and has greatly improved. Kamryn Hoos, Logan Dove, and Ryan Hagedorn each shot a 57 to bring our team score to a 216, which is the best team score Green Ridge has had since 2019. Ryan Hagedorn shot his personal best tonight too. Shane Meyer finished his round with a 68 and Ace Bodenhamer shot a 71 Windsor’s team score: 203 (1st place) Green Ridge’s team score 216 (2nd place) Concordia didn’t qualify for a team score this evening due to number of golfers For the first match of the year and the weather we have had for the first month of the season, Coach Doane is extremely proud of the way his guys scored tonight. We are going to clean up a few things and we are back in action on Thursday @ Cole Camp for another 9 hole match ⛳️

Tigers Baseball lost last night to the Leeton Bulldogs 17-1. Abrahm Rivas had his first RBI as a high school player, and Ethan Crawford scored his first run. Austin Warner pitched well at times, had trouble finding the strike zone, and is nursing a sore arm. Abrahm came in and did a nice job for his first time on the mound. The Tigers gave the Bulldogs too many outs, and are committed to work harder on defense. The Tigers have also struggled from the plate this year, but have shown improvement in the cage. The Tigers suit it up again on Thursday, at home, against Warsaw.

Athletic Updates for 3/28: Baseball and Softball games for today are on as scheduled. Both contests will have first pitch at 4:30 p.m. Baseball is playing Leeton in a Varsity only contest, and Softball is playing Butler in a Varsity contest followed be a shortened JV 3/3/3 contest. Good Luck Tigers!
