HS baseball finales moved
Monday's local roundup Staff Reports Field conditions were too poor Monday for the baseball teams from Hibriten and West Caldwell to wrap up their regular seasons. Hibriten was to host Hickory, while West Caldwell was to travel to Bunker Hill. Both of those games will be played tonight, cutting short the time before the conference tournament. After their games, the coaches from the Catawba Valley Athletic Conference will meet in Hickory for tournament seeding. The CVAC tournament begins Wednesday (for the league's top eight teams) with higher seeds hosting games. The tournament will then shift to L.P. Frans Stadium in Hickory for the semifinals (Friday) and final (Saturday). South Caldwell did not have a game scheduled for Monday. The Spartans play at Alexander Central today. Golf South finishes third in N-W South Caldwell qualified for regional competition Monday by wrapping up third place in the Northwestern conference.
