As the snow starts to melt revealing the turf fields lying beneath, the ground prepares to be run on every day by spring athletes. Spring sports are right around the corner, some of them starting in only a few short weeks! As a spring athlete myself, I am excited for the new season to start along with the warmer weather! It will be nice to start to practice outside instead of in indoor hockey rinks. Important tryout dates and the first upcoming games and events of all DHS spring sports are listed below! Good luck to all spring athletes this upcoming season and to all other DHS students, get ready to cheer at their games!
