Caiden Fay was already a golfer when he started caddying at Stone Oak Country Club four years ago. The previous experience with the sport fast-tracked the intricacies of the job. But Fay could not have foreseen how impactful carrying someone’s golf clubs around Stone Oak would be for his future.

AVON — The 100th University of Toledo baseball season ended just like the previous 99: without an NCAA tournament berth.

Last year, Springfield’s postseason dreams were dashed by a walk-off home run against Perrysburg in the district final. The top-seeded Blue Devils left nothing to chance in 2025, as leadoff hitter Camryn Hall started Saturday’s festivities with a triple, and Springfield never let up in a 6-4 district championship victory over No. 3 seed Central Catholic at the Oregon Parks and Recreation fields. “We talked about [last year] quite a bit,” Springfield coach Rob Gwozdz said.

It almost feels like you’re home again,” Workman said. “You’re with people you’re comfortable with. A lot of these guys I’ve played with throughout the minor leagues.

BOWLING GREEN — Three two-run triples propelled the Clay softball team past Northview on Friday and into their first regional since 2019.

Hot bats have Toledo baseball surging into MAC tournament

Rob Reinstetle let his frustrations be known five weeks ago after Toledo’s no-show 10-0 loss to Michigan at Fifth Third Field. The University of Toledo baseball coach ranted about his team’s inability to hit and its negative consequences on the season. The Rockets weren’t just one of the worst-hitting teams in the Mid-American Conference — they were one of the worst in the entire country. A lot has changed since April 15. It’s funny what happens when you start swinging the bats.
