We are dragging and lining the varsity softball and baseball fields now. Our amazing maintenance dept. has taken great care of our varsity fields and they will take water. Hillsboro has been contacted and will be making the trip as our opponents in both sports. Play ball, hopefully!!
Girls soccer is game on today as Greenville has moved the game to their turf football field. Let's go Oilers!
The round of rain that came through this morning has postponed our JV baseball game due to the wet field conditions. The maintenance crew is unable to get on the field to prepare it. Our varsity fields are much better prepared to handle rain and we will evaluate those at noon.
We are working with Hillsboro and looking at dates to reschedule this game.
