Not following this procedure creates a disruption for many offices as well as adults in the building.

The baseball team won a fun one over their Washington Street rivals, defeating SHG 2 to nothing behind a stellar complete game shutout performance from Seth Impson on the mound. Impson struck out 7, walked one, and allowed only 4 hits on the day. Enrico Veach got the ball rolling with a lead-off single to start off the bottom of the first, and Carter Kruse drove him home with a clutch double. Kruse paced the offense with 2 hits, as the defense did their job with a huge double play in the 5th from Veach to Brody Scheffler to Sam Hartl to get Impson out of a bases loaded, one out jam. Next up is a strong East Peoria team on Saturday with a doubleheader at their place starting at 10.
The Senator softball team picked up a big conference win over SHG last night 2 to 0 to move to 11 and 3 and 6 and 1 in conference. Mia Volpert had a strong performance in the circle, allowing just 1 hit and striking out 16. Volpert led the offense with 2 hits, while Lydia Cliburn got the offense going with great bunt in the 3rd inning. The defense stepped up when the chances presented themselves and Kendall Knauer had a great game behind the plate. Good win, ladies!
