State Baseball Send-off
Your Pecatonica High School Varsity Baseball team travels to Appleton next week to play in the State Semifinal game. The game is the second game on the schedule. It follows the first Division 4 game, which will begin at 9:00 a.m.
In an effort to time it best with the baseball team’s departure, we are holding a send-off/pep rally for the players, managers, and coaches at the ball diamond. All are invited to come down to McKellar Park, this Monday (June 12), at 10:30 a.m. We will recognize the members of the program at their home park before they depart for their competition at State.
Here is the state information that has been shared out previously:
