Aldridge ready to put work and excitement back into Lumen boys hoops

                      (File Photo by Ryan Kerwin, JTV Sports) By Mike Moore, Staff Writer  Jackson — A program with this much history, in a school with an abundance of athletic talent, can’t spend another winter with win totals in the single digits. So, if the Lumen Christi boys basketball team is going to improve, Tyler Aldridge will be the man to do so. That’s the hope the Titans’ athletic department had in mind last week when Aldridge became the newest head coach of the boys hoops program. “I was elated,” Aldridge said when he received the call offering him the position. Now, he said, it’s time to get to work. “It’s been a busy June already,” he laughed. “Getting the team organized and getting guys to workouts and things like that. That’s what we’re doing now.” And that will translate to better results in the 2017-18 campaign — Aldridge hopes. Since winning 19 times two years ago, the Titans have struggled in the record book, winning a total of four games in that span. “Effort,” Aldridge said when asked what’s plagued the team. “I really think that’s been the issue. You have…

Jackson baseball looking forward to district and shot at first crown in “a long time”

By Mike Moore Staff Writer   Jackson — Pitching and hitting and defense, oh my.   Okay, there’s no yellow-brick road on the path to a district crown, but Jackson High baseball coach David Nearpass understands what his team has to do once the playoffs launch next week.   The path, as it would be, is threefold.   “For large portions of the season, we’ve had two of those things going at once,” Nearpass said. “Now the challenge is having all three at their highest level. If we do that, we’ve got a pretty good chance to go on a run.”   And a run is what the Vikings have been on of late, winning five of their past six games leading into Thursday’s season-ending doubleheader with Sexton.   “We’ve been playing pretty well,” Nearpass said of his group, which is 19-12 on the year. “Like I said, we just need to get all three facets of the game clicking.”   Jackson is taking part in the Division 1 district hosted by Gull Lake.   The Vikings open against Battle Creek Central at 1 p.m. in a semifinal.   Jackson is 2-0 this year against Central.   “We pitched well…
