The Buena Vista baseball team sits at the top of the Iowa Conference standings heading into this weekend’s series at Simpson. The Beavers are 8-1 in the league race and had an eight-game winning streak snapped on Tuesday with an extra inning loss to Wartburg.

Buena Vista coach Steve Eddie says they returned a good foundation from last year and knew they could play good defense, but they have been playing good offense too. He says while the Beavers are off to a great start things can change with one bad weekend as there are a lot of teams that are even in talent.

Simpson has a share of second in the league race with a record of 6-3. He says they look like they are together with a deep pitching staff.
