It’s that time of year when family and hometown memories become dearest to our hearts. The span of time between Thanksgiving and Christmas seems to beckon us to return to the places we enjoyed in earlier years and draw near to loved ones. It had been three years since baseball sports legend Vida Blue had been to Mansfield, and he was happy to join his many siblings in the area. Blue was kind enough to stop by The Enterprise for a visit and graciously answered our questions and posed for photos.

The Logansport Tigers 2018 season came to an end this past Friday in heartbreaking fashion. The West St John Rams scored a touchdown with only 9 seconds left in the game to come from behind and defeat the hometown Tigers. Logansport had held the lead since the 3:57 mark in the second quarter. The game was played in front of an overflowing crowd at Tiger Stadium. Last time West St John traveled to Logansport, in 1993, for a semifinal game, the game was played in a rainstorm. There was no rain this time but an afternoon shower brought plenty of fog in at game time. With the loss the Tigers end their season with a 10-1 record. The current group of seniors finish their careers with a 45 and 7 record, 1 State championship, 1 semi final loss and appearing in the quarterfinals all 4 years.

The Mansfield Wolverines traveled to Welsh, LA for the second round of LHSAA playoffs. The Wolverines hung tough in the first half. On the Wolverines first possession, they turned the ball over on a fumble, adding insult to injury. They lost the replacement or Robert Turner, Cameron Knuckles, on an ankle injury. Welsh took the ball and turned it into 6 points after missing the extra point. Welsh scored again on a 22-yard pass with 5:04 left in the 2nd quarter. Wolverines got on the board on a 14 yard pass with 33 seconds on the close, leaving the first half 13 to 8.
