As many know by now, much of the BCHS student body has been affected by COVID-19 quarantine. Specifically, the DPH rule which now states a student within six feet of a COVID-19 positive student for more than 15 minutes, regardless of whether they were wearing a mask, must quarantine for 14 days.

One sport affected was softball. 14 players had to quarantine due to exposure. As a result, play was suspended following the August 25 game versus Westfield. All but one player was back Wednesday afternoon as the Lady Royals resumed their season against Perry. However, it wasn’t a successful return.

Trinity Glover would beat the ball to third base.

A third inning grand slam put the Lady Panthers up 5-0. BC scored on Regan Wimberly’s RBI groundout. Perry added three in the fifth. BC stayed in the game with a two-run home half. Down 9-3 in the seventh, a two on, two opportunity produced no runs.
