            BCHS One Act held a Variety Show Thursday night in the high school auditorium.  It was to raise funds for this year's competition piece Something Rotten! JR.  The show takes place in the 1590's and is the story of two brothers living in the shadow of William Shakespeare.  After getting inspiration from a local soothsayer, they set out to write the world's first musical.  Thursday's show featured solos, duos, group performances, a dance number and a couple of songs from this year's play.  There are currently two community performances scheduled for October 22 and 26 at 7:30 pm.  If you're interested in being a sponsor of this year's play, contact Carrie Gilbert or Dawson Greer at BCHS.

Jalycia Stanley Natalie Fordham Hailey Davis Zoey Adams   It was supposed to be just a regular region home game versus Dublin Tuesday evening.   But persistent lightning in the area made it anything but.  The game didn't even begin until almost 6:30 pm due to a lightning delay.  Then in the top of the fifth with two outs, another blast from the lightning detector siren again forced teams off the field.  After waiting another hour, the weather finally gave enough of a window to resume.  BC got the final out then scored two runs in the home half to win 13-5.  Jeriyah Evans was 2 for 2 with 4 RBI.  Emily Ferrell went 1 for 2 with 2 RBI.  Bleckley travels to Crawford County August 27, game time is 5:30 pm.
