Correction By The Coach
Baseball Coach Mike Lilac noticed in the last issue of The Eastwick Press that the subject of upcoming athletic trips by the HFCS baseball and softball teams was written about. It was correctly stated that in the future all non-sectional/playoff trips must not require students to miss school days. However, it also stated that both the baseball and softball trips this season would require students to miss school days. Only the softball trip will cause players to miss a day of school. The baseball trip will depart on Friday, May 22, and return on Sunday, May 24. School is not in session for those three days.
