Most Catholic schools are off this week for the Easter break, but there are still some intriguing matchups on the schedule. Archmere is in school, and the Auks will be the busiest program, highlighted by a lacrosse showdown with Tower Hill on Thursday afternoon.

Later in the week, Saint Mark’s gets going on the softball field, and several schools will be participating in the Penn Relays in Philadelphia in one of track and field’s premier events.

Game schedules are always subject to change, so be sure to check before heading out.
