Jackson Bennett's Journey: From the Cornfields of Dyersville Iowa to the Spartans of East Lansing

From Dyersville Beckman, to the Kirkwood Community College Eagles, to the Spartans of Michigan State University.  Follow the Jackson Bennett story as one of the top preps in Iowa playing for Hall of Fame Coach Tom Jenk Jr. at storied program Dyersville Beckman.  Jackson was a member of the 2017 season where Beckman won its 6th state championship with Coach Jenk watching from the press box.  Coach Jenk passed a few months after that remarkable season, but a Hollywood movie should be in the works.  After Dyersville Beckman Jackson took his talents to Kirkwood Community College to play for Coach Todd Rima.  After two outstanding years at Kirkwood, the Spartans of Michigan State came knocking and Jackson answered.  We have some fun with Jackson during the Around the Horn segment and also the 7th Inning Stretch which is audience driven questions.  The podcast ended with Closing Time and we went "Back to Back with Bennet" as he dropped a ton of knowledge on us. Enjoy this episode of the Dubuque Area Baseball Podcast for such an amazing young man.
