Spring Sports: First Practices of the Season

With the unpredictable weather this year, it has been difficult to start up spring sports’ practices. There is still a significant amount of snow on the fields making outdoor practices impossible. Lacrosse, Baseball, Softball, and Track and Field have been unable to practice outside on school property due to the snow as well as the parking lots being off limits. This rule prevents all sports from practicing in all lots on school property. It was set in place to protect the cars still on campus after normal school hours.

While this a reasonable precaution, it has caused a crazy practice schedule for all sports. Every sport has to schedule gym time after school, calling for shorter practices and irregular practice times. Practices are limited to the old gym due to the continuation of the Girls Basketball season. The time slots for practices sometimes can run later than a regular practice would.  Hopefully there will be no more snow, allowing for more reasonable practice hours!
