Pheasant harvest up in 2020

Ag/Outdoor, Sports

July 14th, 2021 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – The pandemic helped Iowa see a huge 2020 pheasant harvest. The D-N-R reports Iowa hunters bagged nearly 300-thousand roosters during the 2020 season — the second-highest harvest reported in more than a decade — and around 16 thousand more than 2019. D-N-R Wildlife biologist Todd Bogenschutz says there were 10-thousand more hunters in 2020 — which he credits mainly to the pandemic — as all types of outdoor activities saw increased.

Bogenschutz says the roadside survey heading into the season showed an 18 percent increase in birds, which was another factor in the good harvest.

Spieker fans 10, Cougars advance to District Final

Sports

July 13th, 2021 by admin

Lane Spieker had the fastball working and struck out ten batters on the night to lead the CAM Cougars to a 10-0 win over the Bedford Bulldogs in 6 innings of play. Heading into the sixth Spieker had only faced three batters over the minimum and he started the sixth by striking out the first two Bulldogs up. He then had one slip away to hit Dylan Swaney on the leg and allowed a hit and a walk to follow to load the bases. CAM Head Coach Dan Daugherty then went to closer Joe Kauffman who struck out Noah Johnson to finish the contest. After the game Spieker said he really felt good about the fast ball early.

At the plate the Cougars racked up 10 hits on the night. They scored three runs in the first to grab the early lead led by a 2RBI double by Ethan Follmann. The Cougars also plated three in the 4th with Kauffman driving in 2 with a double. The Cougars led 9-0 heading into the sixth and Ethan Follmann got on with a base hit. He would then steal his way over to third. A wild pitch during Jack Follmann’s at bat allowed Follmann to come home and he slid in safely for the game ending run.

The Cougars improve to 24-6 on the season and will host the District 13 final on Saturday night against Lenox. We’ll have that game on KJAN with pregame at 6:45pm. Spieker said the team seems to be hitting a pretty good stride at the right time.

Bedford finished the game with 3 hits, two from Silas Walston. The Bulldogs end their season with a record of 8-17.
