BY NICK ETHIER SPORTS STAFF WRITER DUDLEY — Despite some rain showers in the Dudley area March 23, many Shepherd Hill spring teams still took part in outdoor practices Tuesday, as their seasons are fast approaching. At 3 p.m., the lacrosse, boys' tennis, and track and field teams were all outside work- ing on their skills. Lacrosse games typically don't get postponed with a little rain in the forecast, so practicing in the precipitation seemed logical. The tennis courts did not have any pud- dles, so practicing outside seemed to be no problem for the Rams. And many people find running outside in the rain to be enjoyable, so it likely wasn't a problem for the Shepherd Hill tracksters. The only teams that weren't practicing out- side were the baseball and softball squads, as their respective fields were ust too damp. On April 2, the boys' and girls' tennis teams, along with the lacrosse team, will open up their season. Boys' tennis plays at Sutton at 3:30 p.m., while the girls will host Sutton at 3:30. Lacrosse will travel to Bellingham for a 3:45 contest. Baseball and softball open up on April 5 when they travel to David Prouty for 3:30 games, while the track teams have their first meet of the season April 7 in Auburn.
