Little League Baseball recap
The Beardstown Little League Baseball regular season wrapped up last week with a couple of games on Monday, June 17.
In the 11/12-year-old opener, it was the Turbo Ink Blue Jays winning in a real pitchers’ duel over the Beardstown Fire Dept. Chiefs by a score of 3 to 2. Drew Meyer tossed 5.1 innings for the Bluejays and allowed just one run on one hit and three walks with twelve strikeouts to earn the win. Abel Martinez finished it off to get the save.

BHS needs new boys’ basketball coach
Beardstown High School Athletic Director Elliot Craig and the Board of Education are in the market for a new varsity boys’ basketball coach for the 2024-2025 season.
Due to family concerns, head coach Eric Anderson recently made the tough but necessary decision to step down from the position. Anderson spent the past nine years as the top cat for the Tigers posting a 123-133 record including a very fine 22-10 season last year.
