After losing a couple of meets due to weather, the MCC Track teams added a meet in Worthington on April 27. This would be the biggest meet the Rebels would participate in up to this point of the season as twelve teams were entered.

The MCC Rebels were back at home on Tuesday afternoon beginning their second trip through the Red Rock Conference Softball Schedule. The Rebels took on the Coyotes of Heron Lake Okabena Fulda. The Rebels beat the Coyotes to open the season in a game in which the Rebels did more running than hitting. On Tuesday, the Rebel bats were alive from the first pitch to the last.

The MCC Rebels were three and one entering Thursdays game in Slayton versus Edgerton Southwest Minnesota Christian. The Rebels were hoping to beat the Flying Dutchmen to put them in first place in the Red Rock Conference but that wasn’t to be. Edg/ SWC was coming in ready to hit from pitch one. The Rebels found out firsthand why the Flying Dutchmen have been the conference champions year in and year out.

In a big conference clash, the undefeated Edgerton/SWC baseball team played the one loss Rebels in Edgerton. The Rebels would get on the board first in the top half of the first inning.

The MCC Rebels were on the road Monday to play a makeup game with the Wolverines of Mountain Lake Area Comfrey. With both teams having experienced players coming back from a season ago, one expected a close contest and it was. The Rebels beat the Wolverines last year twice, both in games that came down to the very end. Monday was no different.
