Boys volleyball begins its postseason tournament this week, and outdoor track is set for this weekend in Dover. There are still meaningful baseball games on the schedule, and tournament seeding could be affected in other sports as well as the seasons end this week.
Salesianum baseball plays three times this week, and the Sals need one more win to be eligible for the state tournament. A few high-profile lacrosse games are on tap to end the regular season, including a rematch of the last four state championship battles, and Saint Mark’s at home trying for a big W to close things out before the playoffs.
Don’t forget to confirm dates and times before making the trip. Schedules are always subject to change.
