The Bluffton University baseball team took advantage of a Wilmington error in the first inning, plating an unearned run that turned out to be all the Beavers would need as three Bluffton hurlers combined to toss a three-hitter in a 7-0 shutout on Tuesday, March 11 at Prasco Park in Mason, Ohio. The Beavers improved to 6-4 with their fourth straight victory, while Wilmington stayed winless at 0-9 on the season.

A pair of Bluffton University softball players were honored for their work on the diamond in Florida over the past week. Juniors Jess Kuzara (Flat Rock, Mich./Huron) and Chloe Shell (Covington) led the Beavers to an 8-2 mark at the Gene Cusic Classic and were named HCAC Hitter of the Week and Pitcher of the Week, respectively.

Meghan Good, pastor of Albany (Ore.) Mennonite Church, will address the biblical “Runaway Bride” in Bluffton University’s Spiritual Life Week forum on Tuesday, March 18. Beginning at 11 a.m. in Founders Hall, her presentation is free and open to the public.

The week’s activities will focus on three Ds—dwell, desire and delight—from Psalm 37. Discussing desire in the forum, Good will draw from the book of Hosea and the story, she notes, of “a runaway bride pursued by a relentlessly passionate Groom.”

Bluffton University’s Camerata Singers, back from a spring-break tour in Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio, will reprise the tour program, “Peace, Justice & Love,” in the annual Camerata Home Concert on Sunday, March 16. The concert, beginning at 2:30 p.m. in Yoder Recital Hall, is free and open to the public.
