It was a great run while it lasted. The B-W baseball team was Middle Border Conference champion. The team captured the regional championship.
But the run was over last Wednesday at Barron when the Hawks were unable to generate enough offense to score any runs and lost to Nekoosa 3-0 in sectional semi-final action of the WIAA Division 2 playoffs.
"We ran into a very good team," said B-W Coach Grey Hush. He noted that Nekoosa has a strong baseball tradition. In the third inning Nekoosa scored two earned runs and one unearned run and that was all it took to win the game since B-W was unable to score a run.
