Softball: LWC at Conference Tournament on Wednesday in BG After 81 days and countless weather delays we have, at last, reached the 2023 Mid-South Conference Softball Tournament.

Letter: Remembering Don Routt Nathan Routt writes: My name is Nathan Routt, I was one of Don's sons. I loved him more than words can express. I miss him so much and wish I could've been a better son and spent a lot more time with him. I'll never forget the times we did have, I just wished there was more time. If anyone reads this and has a father that's still with us, please don't do what I did. Sitting around procrastinating thinking that tomorrow's always going to be there. As I cry these last few words, I'm so sorry dad and I'll love you forever.Comments re: Donald R.
