The sports schedule gets a bit busier as students return to the classroom — virtual or otherwise — after the Easter break. There are intriguing matchups in all of the spring activities nearly every day of the week, so if the April showers hold off, it should be a fun seven days. That’s right, there is a Sunday afternoon baseball game on the horizon.
