Last week was busy with 6 games in 6 days and 4 of the 6 being conference games. A lot to be proud of but also a lot to work on! Back in action Tuesday at home vs Olney 4:30pm.

A lot of grit from our guys today to start conference play. Split the DH against a solid Mt.Zion club. Back in action Thursday @ Dieterich 4:30pm.

LHP Carter Braddy (@Hearts_Baseball, 2027) is a high upside sophomore to follow closely.

Up to 84 today on a cold 40 degree day, pitched at 80-83 mph. Loose arm, more to come.

Flashed ++ feel for tumbling CH & sweeping BB, both in mid-70s.

C Max Flack (@Hearts_Baseball, 2026) really stood out defensively in G1 for Effingham - back picked a runner at second, blocked everything in the dirt.

Singles through the left side here to start G2, bringing a run home.

INF Jude Traub (@Hearts_Baseball, 2027) will be a sophomore to follow for Effingham.

Strong, simple RH swing, hammered this for an RBI 2B in his first AB of game two.

OF Andrew Wagoner (@Hearts_Baseball, 2026) has put together some really competitive AB from the top of Effingham’s lineup.

Two hits so far in game two, including this single up the middle with two strikes.

Scrappy, high energy type.
