now your local sports with Charlie Jagger one week ago the beiji post 14 Legion Baseball team also known as the centaurs lost to Fergus Falls in the first round of the substate double elimination tournament they LED 5 nothing heading into the final inning before surrendering eight runs and route to a gut-wrenching loss one that could have meant curtains for their run at a second straight turny bid but the Centaur stayed composed rattling off six straight wins including back-to-back victories over host Alexandria on Sunday to punch their ticket to State we were pretty upset after the first game but we knew we had the pitching to get through the losers bracket and we kind of just were thinking why not us it's not obviously where we wanted to start but it's how we got there so it was just kind of a mindset just we showed up there kind of flat and the energy was low but all the rest of the games the energy was high and we were we were ripping that energy is crucial to the centaur's aggressive style of play utilizing their legs on the base paths to force the defense to make plays while also riding the players who are hot on the mound and in the Batters box the squad now heads to St Michael for pool play last year beiji went one and two but this time around they have a pretty solid yet Simple Plan you know same thing we did as substate keep the energy everything keeps going just show grit hopefully our pitchers shove again and hitters hit you you know make the plays that we're supposed to make and I think we'll be just fine feels amazing you know cuz you know second time in a row to do it so hopefully this time we can make it a little further feels amazing all pool play starts tomorrow with beiji playing back-to-back games against Fridley and Shaka then on Friday they'll play Rochester top two teams will advance to the eight team single elimination bracket on Saturday with a champion being crowned on Sunday well the college hockey season may still be a few

Mets Minnesota trailing 2-1 in the third but after back-to-back singles by Trevor lck and Max Kepler twins take a 3-2 lead next batter Royce leis chops one down the line that'll score another and Mets

million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias according to the CDC early diagnosis and intervention might help delay the onset of symptoms and a new study shows a combined blood test for cognitive decline can help with early detection in today's Health minute Mandy gather has more on the test and how it works it's the most common type of Dementia in cases of Alzheimer's disease are expected to continue rising in the US but there's another tool that is providing hope for early diagnosis there have been so many exciting developments when it comes to the world of Alzheimer's and this is another one Dr sanj Gupta says the two-part blood test can measure how much amalo you likely have in your brain That's A protein that clumps together and later becomes plaque in patients with Alzheimer's disease it's not an Alzheimer's test per se saying either you have it or you don't but it's another tool that doctors are likely to start using as part of a more complete evaluation a new study found this combined blood test has a 90% accuracy rate in determining whether memory losses due to alzheimer's in comparison neurologists and other memory specialists directly diagnosed the disease in 73% of cases and primary care doctors had even less success with a 61% accuracy rate there's also these new medications out there with these new blood tests you might be able to follow along how well those medications are working take the medication did the amalo score start to improve as a result of that you can do that in in conjunction with actually looking at someone's real life functioning for health minute I'm Mandy Gaither experts say not to expect blood tests for Alzheimer's to be in a primary care doctor's office anytime soon as more research is needed to verify positive results of studies like this one and guidelines for Physicians using these tests need to be established and distributed now we have a little extra time we're going back to
