BLUFFTON, Ohio - Capping off his outstanding career at Bluffton, senior Mike Castro (Reynoldsburg) has been named Second Team All-Mideast Region by the ABCA (American Baseball Coaches Association). Castro's monster year also saw him earn First Team Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference honors in 2015. He is the first Beaver to be named All-Region by the ABCA since all-time hits leader Kyle Niermann was recognized as a First Team selection in 2013.
Taylor Steele of Bluffton is participating in a cross-cultural experience in Great Britain, May 6-25.
He and other Bluffton students—most of them members of Bluffton’s Camerata Singers—are exploring various faith communities in Scotland and England. Many of these communities are countercultural, but others connect very directly to the prevailing society. At times, students will be joining other choirs and musicians in singing, as well as visiting historic sites in London.
