Former high school baseball players from Hopkins County have been taking advantage of their opportunities to play at the collegiate level this spring with their respective schools.
Asbury College freshman Trevor Sewell made the most of his playing time on March 31 against Centre College by notching his first collegiate hit of his career.
Sewell, a 2008 Dawson Springs grad, entered the game as a substitute and finished the game 1-for-2. Along with his single, Sewell reached base on a walk and added a stolen base.
Asbury won the game 23-11. Sewell, listed as an outfielder, has played in seven games this season, starting two.
Hopkins County Central graduate Jorge Tauil recorded a pair of 1-for-3 performances on April 4 against Miami University Middletown (Ohio) for Oakland City University (Ind.).
Tauil, a sophomore, started both games at shortstop and raised his batting average to .299 on the season, third-best among Oakland City starters.
The Oaks split the doubleheader by losing the first game 1-0 and taking the second 5-4 to improve to 7-16 on the season.

Tauil and his teammates return to the diamond at 12 p.m. today for a doubleheader with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.
At Lindsey Wilson College, Ethan Utley has been earning his time as one of the Blue Raiders regulars out of the bullpen.
Utley, who graduated from Central in 2008, has made six appearances with two starts for an 0-1 record. Utley, a 6-0 right-hander, has struck out 17 and allowed 11 earned runs in 14 innings pitched.
Men's golf
Kentucky Wesleyan College golfer Mitchell Faulk represented Hopkins County well with a pair of solid scores in the Midwest Regional on Saturday and Sunday.
Faulk, a 2008 Central alum, shot a 76-78 at Cherry Blossom Country Club in Georgetown to tie for 75th place overall, beating his average by two strokes.
The Panthers' team score of 598 represented the squad's best two-round mark of the season and guided Kentucky Wesleyan to a 14th-place finish of 20 teams.
Faulk and teammate Richard Moore, also a Central product, will compete in the Great Lakes Valley Conference Championship on Thursday and Friday at Otter Creek Golf Course in Columbus, Ind.
