Eight years ago, Fishers High School Baseball Coach Matthew Cherry had his team measure exactly how many miles it is to travel from their school to Victory Field in downtown Indianapolis.  From then on, the goal has been to get into the state championship game and win it.  The team accomplished that goal in 2018, defeating perennial baseball power Cathedral in the state title contest.

Coach Cherry told that story as he stood before the Fishers City Council Monday night as local officials honored his team, to a round of applause from the audience in the council chambers
