The Sumner High baseball team’s past week was a busy one. Following a season opening of mercurial rain and ice storms, the team was forced to reschedule its nonleague games from March 19 to 23.

Following a disappointing 9-7 loss to crosstown rival Bonney Lake Monday, the Spartans had a three-day lineup of games: nonleague match-ups against Wilson and Decatur Wednesday and Thursday, leading seamlessly into the team’s first South Puget Sound League match of the season against the Eatonville Cruisers.

In those latter three matches, the valley boys did not disappoint.

The Spartans defeated Wilson 7-1, Decatur 9-5, and Eatonville 9-3.

The early victory over the Cruisers gave the Spartans a strong season open.

The boys played at Franklin Pierce High Tuesday after press time and Fife travels to Spartan diamond today, Wednesday. Results will be made available online.
