Baseball: November 2008 Archives
The baseball season calendar, which can be found here in a five-season block, is again under review. The IHSA has received 14 by-law amendment proposals, one of which would essentially move back the first day teams can play games by two weeks.
According to the IHSA's Web site, the final vote on the proposals by member schools will take place between Nov. 25-Dec. 24.
For the 2009 season, games can be scheduled for March 16 while the season is expected to end on June 13. Last season, within this column, we made our feelings known about overreacting to Chicago weather patterns in the age of global warming.
