Bluffton boys and girls CC first at Bath

BHS boys' cross country team

The Bluffton HS cross country team travelled to a quad-meet at Bath last Thursday. The host team, Bluffton, Kalida, and Lima Senior all competed. The boys and girls ran together, as there were only 59 runners present.

Bluffton dominated the field, as both teams ran their way to a win. A pair of Bluffton runners led the way for the Pirates, each grabbing first place: Matthew Herron for the boys and Hannah Chappell-Dick for the girls.

Pirate girls' tennis team beats LCC 3-2

Bluffton High School's girls' tennis team "won" the mythical Northwest Conference title for the second straight year with a 3-2 decision over Lima Central Catholic Monday afternoon at Harmon Courts.

BHS and LCC are the only NWC schools with girls tennis, so there is no official championship. Jess Hunter won at No. 2 singles, while the doubles teams of Ashlin Gable/Emily Sprague and Kristi Geiser/Liz Diller clinched the win.

BHS hosts Celina in a makeup match Tuesday at Harmon Courts.
