Baseball team to scrimmage
By Sam Waller
The Albany Lions baseball team gets its first test against outside competition this Friday with a scrimmage at Merkel.
“We’re going to take the kids we have, the ones who aren’t in basketball, and go have a good practice,” Lions coach David Fairchild said.
Albany opens regular season play by hosting a JV tournament Feb. 24-26. The first varsity competition will be March 3-6 at the Eastland tournament.
Fairchild said Friday’s outing will allow the Lions to face game situations.
