Key Club will be collecting cell phones to recycle for Cincinnati zoo’s Project Saving Species.  Cell phones contain lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic.  All are considered hazardous waste if sent to landfills.  Cell phones also contain an ore called Coltan, which is mined in endangered gorilla habitat in Africa.  Reducing the demand for Coltan will help save these animals and their habitat.  Please give any unneeded cell phone to any key club member or place in collection box at the Welcome Center anytime before April 16.

SPORTS RESULTS:

Reece Fisher tossed a no hitter on the mound to lead the boys Varsity Baseball team in an opening day victory against cross-town rival Fairfield. Fisher struck out 16 batters and his only blemishes were 2 walks that amounted to nothing for the Falcons.
Offensively, the RedHawks struggled but managed to push 2 runs across in the 5th inning on some errors by the Falcons. Ezequiel Moreno, Noah Alford and Colin Turner all managed to steal bases for the RedHawks offensively. Thomas Castillo made the game ending web gem at 2nd base to cap off Fisher’s no hitter.
The 1-0 RedHawks are back in action Tuesday March 30th as they travel to Fairfield for a rematch. The first pitch is slated for 5pm.

The Goshen RedHawks Varsity softball team secured the victory tonight by a score of 14-3 while scoring 8 runs in the 7th inning.  Klair Sweet had 4 hits while Tyra Marcum added 3.  Tyra Marcum also earned her first Varsity career win pitching 5 innings and allowed 1 hit and had 10 strikeouts giving up 2 runs. The RedHawks are in action again on Tuesday at Shanklin Park against Westview.  The game starts at 5:00. Come out and show your support!

After 674 days without an official baseball game, the RedHawks were excited to take the field once again at Fairfield on Monday evening.  The RedHawks JV competed against Fairfield, and were tied 1-1 after three innings.  Goshen would allow four more runs in the bottom of the 4th inning and brought the game to a 5-3 deficit by scoring two runs in the top of the 6th inning, before unraveling in the bottom of the sixth inning to take a 13-3 loss.  The RedHawks were outhit 7 to 2, with both of Goshen’s base hits coming from catcher Laish Detwiler.  Yabi Kurtz started on the mound and struck out four Falcons.  Gage Worthman and Preston Heeter pitched in relief.  The RedHawks seek revenge on Tuesday evening while hosting Fairfield at GHS Phend Field at 5pm on Tuesday, 3/30.
