The high school sports season moves into its fourth week with some promising weather in the forecast, which is nice after last week incurred a bunch of rained-out contests. Salesianum renews its rivalry with Saint Mark’s on both the baseball diamond and lacrosse pitch, and Archmere lacrosse has a big matchup at Wilmington Charter.

Baseball

Monday

St. Frances at Ss. Peter and Paul, 3:30 p.m.

Saint Mark’s (7-1) at Salesianum (3-0), 4 p.m. The longtime rivals battle in a matinee on Broom Street. The Spartans have held opponents to just a single run per game,  a statistic that will be challenged against a potent Sals offense.
