Week of April 6...

Thank you to all who have read and commented on the newly-formatted weekly update! Keep the suggestions coming.

Last week's roller coaster ride of excitement and emotion was cut short by foul weather, robbing us (for the moment) of witnessing softball and baseball playing side-by-side against RPCS and Boys Latin on Friday. Hopefully many of you made it out to see the girls' laxers rebound from a heartbreaking loss to the first place Quakers by knocking off Glenelg. The boys' team similarly took out their frustrations upon Chapelgate after falling to Curley. Read on for more information including this (truncated) week's opportunities to see your Bruins at home and elsewhere.

On Monday, the varsity girls' lacrosse team goes on the road to face IND in an important bout between squads currently among the upper echelon of the conference. You can still get your ladies' lax fix here at home, however, as we give a special shout out to the JV team who will take on McDonogh on Girls' Varsity Field at 4:00 on Tuesday the 7th. McDonogh's girls' lacrosse teams are ranked number one in the area by Digital Sports. Come out and cheer for the up-and-coming Bruins as they face the A-conference Eagles.

Boys' lacrosse takes the week off after their devastating loss to the Friars of Archbishop Curley and convincing win over Chapelgate. The 1-1 split leaves them in second place, a game behind AACS, according to Digital Sports.

Our golfers plan to battle early forecasts of showers as well as the 1-1 Severn Admirals on Tuesday at Chartwell Golf Club. Thus far the Bruins have struggled, sitting at 0-2 on the season.

Boys' tennis plays just across town at Calvert Hall on Tuesday the 7th and again on Thursday the 9th against rival Beth Tfiloh on our home courts at Stevenson University. The team eyes both matches as potential wins that could catapult them into the thick of things within the A-conference.

What looked to be a busy start never really materialized for the softball team, and their season opener ended in a dreadful loss to Mt. Carmel. This week the girls dust themselves off and look to recover with games against Bryn Mawr and Baltimore Lutheran on Monday and Tuesday, respectively. In the former, the Bruins take on the 2-0 conference leader on Sugar Field in what could be a statement game. Tuesday's game will be on the road.

Baseball still clings to a share of first place after their own up and down week. On Monday, our boys of spring begin a brief home stand at Sugar Field, taking on Chapelgate followed by a Tuesday game against Baltimore Lutheran that is our GAME OF THE WEEK. Park and Lutheran currently share identical 2-1 conference records and top the standings in the B-conference.

Hope to see you there. GO BRUINS!
