The Blue Knights had a rough spring trip to Iowa and Missouri. The team competed against two JUCO Div. I teams and one NCAA Div. II team which proved to be stiff competition. The Blue Knights played their best games against nationally ranked JUCO Div. I Maplewoods Community College of Kansas City losing 10-2 and 8-2. The team swung the bats well, collecting 8 to 10 hits in each game. The pitching struggled finding the plate, but competed well against tough competition.
The Blue Knights will open the northern part of the season next weekend against Bethel JV and St. Olaf JV. The game against St. Olaf will be the first home game ever played on the campus of DCTC at 12:00 on Sunday, April 6.
