PB-ND ppd.; PB golf Inv. on (so far)

Posted Tuesday, April 14, 2009, at 7:24 PM

Poplar Bluff and Notre Dame will not play baseball today (wet field in PB) but the golf tournament at Westwood Hills is still on, so far as there's no more rain.

The rain hit midway through the Poplar Bluff Invitational, slowing play but not the host Mules. Poplar Bluff shot a 298, beating runner-up Dexter by 38 strokes. Poplar Bluff's Trent Hillis won medalist honors with an ever-par 71. Chance Holden of Dexter was second at 73.

Will post complete scores later tonight.

UPDATE

Notre Dame will travel to Poplar Bluff to make up the baseball game at 4 p.m. Wednesday, April 15.

Brian, do you know if the ND-PB game has been rescheduled or is it still up in the air?

Brian Rosener's response:
No word yet. They'll most likely make it up because it's a conference game but when I hear, I'll pass it along.
