A great way to send off Lambert Field and the seniors today.

Today at Lambert Field we said goodbye to many things. The first of which is the little stadium that I have come to love. The new one will be much nicer, but for some reason I really like the old one.

History!!!

Today the Purdue Baseball team did something that it had not done in 103 years. It won the Big Ten Baseball title.

It may be a little premature to say as much, but with five Big Ten games left in the season all Purdue needs to claim a share of the crown is one win or a loss by Indiana. I will be out of town on Sunday so I hope that the Boilers can win tomorrow. If that is the case then the picture of the day will of course be of the celebration. History…
