Due to a back injury, tomorrow’s workout (12/12) will need to be canceled. Sorry for any inconvenience. There will be no workouts next week. We will start back up after Xmas.

HS girls basketball will be taking over the Aux Gym after school today (12/11). As a result, baseball will go in the weight room from 3:00-3:45. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Reminder…today’s session (12/8) will be weights only. The other two days will be limited contact workouts, beginning in the Aux Gym and finishing in the weight room at the appointed time. The Aux Gym’s availability determines the days/times we will schedule. —Thanks

Eastern Illinois University will host a Baseball Winter Clinic/Showcase on December 30th. Please see me if interested.

Again, next week begins the limited contact period. We will start in the Aux Gym and finish in the weight room. Next week's schedule...

(2 of 2) Often, these workouts are at night. If you don't feel comfortable on the roads, don't drive. Error on the side of caution. I may not know how bad the roads are until I drive out. It is possible that I might cancel in the evenings, so you will need to check Twitter.

(1 of 2) The limited contact period will restart next week. For us, that means most workouts will start in the Aux Gym for baseball instruction and finish in the weight room. They will generally last 1.5-2 hours.

A change to this week’s schedule: There will be no weightlifting this Thursday (12/4). Sorry for any inconvenience.

Great night, honoring some BHS Baseball greats! I appreciate everybody showing up for these young men. Thanks to BHS Athletics for making it happen. @bordenathletics

BHS will be honoring these Borden baseball graduates at halftime of the boys’ varsity game on 11/29. These players have met the criteria and will be going up on the Distinguished Braves Wall at the baseball field this spring. Congrats to these scholar-athletes!
