So, let’s not waste any time getting this exciting time of year underway.

  • soccer vs. Sterling Heights, Monday, May 16, at Sterling Heights, 7 p.m. If the talented Cougars are going to get into the mix in the Macomb Area Conference Blue (currently they’re two-game behind division-leading Cousino) they’re going to have to get by the Lady Stallions. Sterling Heights is just a game ahead of the Lady Cougars and pulling even with them is the first step in getting to the top of the division.
  • baseball vs. Lake Shore, Monday, May 16, at Lake Shore, 4 p.m. The Crusders are clinging to that top spot in the MAC White, but Romeo, and Lake Shore are close, very close, behind. A victory for LCN would help put some distance between them and the Shorians.
  • LCN softball vs L’Anse Creuse, Tuesday, May 17, at home, 4 p.m. have been just dominant in the MAC Blue this season, staying unbeaten through the opening seven games. Now, they square off with a Lancers team hungry to oust their rivals and gain ground in the division.
