After completion of 3-0 sweep at the Greenway Baseball Festival in Phoenix, Arizona, the Grizzlies record now stands at 5-0 on the young season. The wacky OSAA rankings had them at #5 in the state before today’s win. The RPI rankings (which include strength of schedule) have Ashland High School as the #1 team in the state. Rankings won’t mean anything until another dozen games have been played though.

Ashland plays at winless Springfield before their next home game on April 2.

7-photo photomerge panorama of Ashland, Oregon

Before heading down the hill to work last Monday morning I climbed out a window and up to the top of my roof to capture this image.

For the details, click on the image a time or two.

The Raiders lost, in the rain, to a very good 7-1 Sierra Nevada College team this afternoon. The next game is also at home, on April 3 against Portland State University.

It took Y&T over 40 years to play in Grants Pass for the first time. Now they are returning, less than a year after their debut. March 26 is the date. The Rogue Theatre is, again, the place.

Tonight the SOU women’s basketball team attempts to do what no other SOU basketball team has done before, reach the finals in the NAIA National Championship Tournament. Game time is 6 p.m. PDT. You can watch the game via ESPN3 on your computer or phone here. If you are in Ashland, head to RedZone, Omars, or Northwest as they will have the game up on the big screen.

Perhaps Julius Caesar would have gotten the message 2,060 years ago if his next door neighbor had a pink flamingo lawn ornament display like I do.

Asbury College just beat #2 seed St. Francis to pave a potentially easier road for Southern Oregon in the national tournament. Massey had St. Francis as the #5 team in the country, and SOU would likely have had to beat them to make it to the Final Four. Not any more.

First things first. First the Raiders need to defeat Clarke today. The game starts soon.
