Barton Baseball regular season finale moved to Washburn University
Thankfully the Barton Community College baseball team has already wrapped up hosting a home playoff series as the No. 18 ranked Cougars’ final regular season games have been moved out of town due to the amount of moisture in the Great Bend area over the weekend. The series finale doubleheader against Cloud County Community College will now be played at Washburn University’s Falley Field in Topeka with a 1:30 p.m. first pitch to conclude the regular season. Also with the change, there will not be any local radio or web streaming but live stats will be available at www.BartonSports.com, as well as, social media updates on Twitter via “BartonSports”.
