The early part of the week is the busier time as the girls’ athletic teams from the Diocese of Wilmington try to get some action in before the Easter break and make up for some of the games rained out in the last week.
There are a few softball showdowns on either end of the state, while the rest of the sports have a lighter schedule. The weather looks better this week, but it’s always a good idea to check to make sure a game is still on.
