Two more one-run losses leave NRHEG girls with 4-3 record
If it weren’t for one-run losses, the NRHEG softball team would be undefeated.
As it is, the Panthers stand 4-3, their latest one-run loss coming in the opening round of Saturday’s Panther Invitational at Legion Field, 12-11 in nine innings to Belle Plaine.
“This was a rollercoaster of a game,” said coach Wendy Schultz. “We dug ourselves into a hole and fought our way back.”
Trailing by seven runs entering the seventh, the Panthers plated seven runs by stringing together six consecutive hits.

It doesn’t look like the NRHEG Panthers will play much baseball this week, and there wasn’t much played last week.
The Panthers got two games in, falling 14-6 to Medford on Monday and 6-1 to Randolph Tuesday. Both were played at Legion Field.
On Monday the Panthers flirted with their first win of the year, leading 6-4 after four innings, but Medford knotted it in the fifth and broke it open with eight runs in the sixth.
Trevor Tracy was 3-for-3 for the Panthers, scoring once and driving two runs. Grand Kyllo was 2-for-3 and scored a run. Dillon Parpart collected two RBIs and scored a run on one hit. Matt Jensen and Dillon Kubiatowicz also hit safely.

NRHEG track and field boys third among eight schools at Maple River
According to NRHEG boys’ track and field coach Duey Ferber, there hasn’t been much competition for senior distance runner T.J. Schiltz this season. Until last Tuesday, anyway.
So how did he respond?
With two first places and, for good measure, a meet record at the Maple River Invitational.
Schiltz won the 1600 meters in 4:38.9, breaking the old meet record, and clocked 10:08.94 for first in the 3200.
“T.J. is really bringing his times down,” said Ferber. “It was nice to have some competition in his races.”
