Things Noticed During The Year, And Things Anticipated At Its End….

Regional weekend in baseball, and state tournament in softball highlight the sports week...and the school year draws to a close with time for reflection on what we've seen, heard, and what we might yet see over the next ten days.  The last, and best, of the OHSAA state tournaments is at the doorstep.
