| By Logan Anderson April 2, 2008 It’s March Madness time again, and as usual my bracket has already been sacrificially burned after several upsets, making winning my bracket pool a pipe dream. We all know that hindsight is 20/20, so basketball knowledge be damned, I am going to step in the time machine and give you a four step approach to success in filling out this year’s bracket. |

| Baseball Season Underway with a Swing of Victories | ||
| By Adam Teut The snow was melting Tuesday hinting and teasing at the signs of spring. Spring means the grass turns green and the snow unveils ball diamonds that have been too long neglected. Soon to follow will be the crack of wood and the thud of leather. For sports fans, this means it is baseball season. The Morningside Mustangs are already in preseason play as they have traveled to warmer climates and indoor facilities to win five of their six games as of Wednesday. Two of those wins came Tuesday against regionally ranked Dakota State University, who is third, by the scores of 4-2 and 2-1. |
