Good Morning! With the Border Country Sports Blog, I'm Keith Harrington.
After a fun vacation to Niagra Falls and Toronto I am back and ready to cover the local spring sports action. Today I am on the road to Williamstown, Massachusetts fo call a college baseball doubleheader. Then of course next week the local high school scene will heat back up with Spring Break over and schools back in session. The action will be fast and furious with the season ending in only about three weeks. Sprng sports goes by so quickly.
Here are some games from the past few days to catch up on.
