For those near any local high schools during the 4 to 8 p.m. time frame these days, take a look around at the outside athletic fields and facilities. There is a lot going on if the weather is dry.
Practices began this week for the many preps teams participating in the outdoor spring sports season. That would be baseball, softball, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, track and field and some crew activities are ongoing each afternoon and early evening.
Some practices linger until 9 p.m.
So this is a busy time at those schools during those hours, with the varsity and some junior varsity practices and workouts, and players and coaches coming and going.
All of the fields and courts are full, and that won’t change for a while, until late May or early June.
There is much going on at high schools these days. Take a look if near by.
