debbystutz.thebeacon@yahoo.com August 2023 THE BEACON Page 1B S BEACON PORTS SCENE By Chris Jack Nobbe Zoller beaconsports @live.com sports@goBEACONnews.com PRIME CUTS NOW AVAILABLE East Central Track- State Placers East Central Track and Field coach Ashley Andres celebrated two relay teams placing at the IHSAA State Finals. The two teams would bookend the running events for the meet and would both come away with hardware. The 4 x By 800-meter relay Maxine team has Klump been pursuing and inching toward a new school record throughout Community the season. They began Correspondent the day with a tremendous performance that maxineklump.thebeacon@yahoo.com would see the Lady Trojan team of Erika Wells, Ashtyn Gindling, Rachel Campbell, and Callie Bentley finally set the new school record with a time of 9:18.2, and in doing so, they placed sixth in the state. The 4 x 400-meter relay kept the same athletes save for Jorjia Ferguson in the place of Gindling for the sprint event. This team competed in the second of three heats at the state finals, which is not among the nine fastest teams to qualify, so they were competing in the race as well as with the clock in an attempt to place. The team won the second section of the finals but would have to wait to see if their posted time would best the teams in the “fastest” section of qualifiers. The team recorded a time of 3:55.87. When all the dust settled from the last section, the Lady Trojans would beat six of them to place fourth. All-State Softball Picks The Indiana Softball Coaches’ Association recently awarded honors to some of the top players in the state for this past year. Two local softball players were chosen as members of the 3A/4A Third Team All-State. South Dearborn senior Cori Cornett and Franklin County sophomore Brooke Stang were each picked by the coaches around the state for their tremendous play throughout the season. Congratulations to them both and their coaches and programs represented as well.

Charlie Schebler Ninth Bulldog To Play in North- South Game Batesville senior baseball standout Charlie Schebler was chosen to compete as a member of the South All- Star team. The North-South All-Star Game is put on each year by the Indiana Baseball Coaches Association and has some different rules in effect in an effort to allow all of the players chosen to play in the games. Schebler, who led the Bulldogs in nearly every offensive category for the season, was selected as a third baseman and was able to contribute well in Saturday’s games where the teams split a pair of one-run games. In the first game on Saturday, Schebler served as a pinch hitter and then played the field. He went 1 for 2 with a double and an RBI as well as getting a stolen base. He also helped complete a double play in the game. The South team would win the first game 4-3. Schebler would again go 1 for 2 in the second game of the day playing as a designated hitter. The South served as the home team in the second game. Schebler recorded a double, a stolen base, and scored a run for the South, but the North would win the second game by a score of 6-5. Jorjia Ferguson, Callie Bentley, Rachel Campbell, and Erika Wells placed fourth in the 4x400 relay at the IH- SAA State Championships.

Bond led the state with 13 home runs for the season, which also ranks high nationally.

His time of 46.89 in his final race is still considered to be the fastest time ever run by a Hoosier high school athlete. Upon graduation from Batesville High School, Giesting went on to an impressive career at the University of Notre Dame where he earned All-American status several times in both the indoor and outdoor championships as well as setting school records for the Irish in both individual and relay events. After his illustrious career at the amateur level, Giesting began competing professionally after college. Giesting ran for Team USA and won a gold medal as a member of the 4x400 relay team at the 2016 World Indoor Track and Field Championships. He would also compete at the 2016 Olympic Trials attempting to earn a spot on the United States roster for the 2016 Games. When he later began competing in the 800 instead of the 400, he continued to find success. In 2018, he helped to set a new world record in the indoor 4x800 relay with a time of 7:11.30. What an honor for his accomplishments in high school as well as recognition of a tremendous career in the sport.
