It’s a light day in the world of Middletown Athletics as we are more in waiting for the main fall sports season to start than anything else. There are a couple small scrimmages coming up but not anything major so for now read the Knights Notes for August 23^rd, kick back, enjoy the nice weather, and dream of football season.

Yesterday's News

- The Middletown Knights Golf team faltered yesterday falling in a tri-match against Smithsburg and South Carroll, 178-176-168. You can read our recap of the match here. (Link)

- Connor Myers (’14) and the South Bend Cubs kicked off another homestand in fine fashion taking down the West Michigan Whitecaps (Tigers A-Affiliate), 8-2. Myers would not play in the win as he was on a day of rest for the duration fo the contest. (Link)

Knight of the Day: Not a lot to choose from so the Knight of the Day award for August 22^nd will go to Middletown senior golfer Robbie Houck. He shot a 44 in the Knights loss yesterday but played an altogether solid round for the Knights.

Today's Happenings

- The events for today are limited as the only two Middletown Athletics events are the Varsity and Junior Varsity Field Hockey team heading over to Tuscarora for a scrimmage in a pre-season rematch of last year’s 2015 Central Maryland Conference Field Hockey Championship. Varsity starts at 4:00 while JV fires up at 5:30.

- Connor Myers ('14) and the South Bend Cubs will entertain West Michigan in Game 2 of their four-game series from South Bend at 7:05 as the playoff-bound Cubs wind down their regular season. (Link)
