Good morning, Muncie.

Economic troubles and the rise of railroads ended the project and left little trace of the canal—marking an ambitious era in our region.
Muncie area teams began competing in IHSAA baseball sectionals on May 28 and games will continue today at venues including Yorktown, Winchester Community, and Wes-Del.
