The Yellow Jackets start with a game against Sumter, then play Monday and Tuesday against Darlington and Mid-Carolina, respectively. Wednesday’s games will be determined by wins and losses during the tournament.
Dutch Fork will play in the Forest Acres Classic baseball tournament at A. C. Flora starting Monday against Hammond. The tournament runs through Thursday, with the Silver Foxes playing Dreher on Tuesday and Flora on Wednesday.
Teams competing in Thursday’s championship games will be determined by previous wins and losses in the tournament.
And, Chapin will compete in the South Carolina Diamond Invitational at Blythewood next week beginning Wednesday against Blythewood’s Bengals.
The Eagles then take on Dorman on Thursday and Boiling Springs on Friday, with championship games set for Saturday.
After that, it’s back to class and back to the regular spring schedule.
