The Yellow Jackets started out strong the first couple of weeks starting with a 7-5 record. Their most recent 5-0 loss to Goreville continues a rough patch for the Yellow Jackets who fell to 7-13 on the year.

Ethan Bert led Chester with two hits in a 7-2 loss to Goreville.

As the second half of the season starts they look to turn things around. The Jackets are awaiting the return of their clean-up hitter and center fielder Nick Meyer a key part of their lineup. The Yellow Jackets play Goreville at home Thursday in a Black Diamond Conference West match-up. With 8 games left on the schedule, the Yellow Jackets look to get hot and turn the season around.
