Spring is upon us, and so is baseball season. The varsity baseball team will compete for one of their first times this season on Saturday, Feb. 11 at 12:00 p.m. at the Randall baseball fields against Tascosa. The team, made up of almost all seniors, will have multiple tournaments played at home and away before kicking off their district season on Mar. 17 against the Dumas Demons at Dumas High school at 5:00 p.m. Once district starts the team will play consecutively every Friday and Tuesday, and will typically play around 12:00 p.m. or 5:00 p.m., depending on what day they play.

In the past the Raider baseball team has ranked in the top three among their district rivals. The Amarillo High Sandies and Plainview Bulldogs are new to the district this spring. Although the Raiders have additional rivals in the district, their upcoming season will be nothing be eventful.
