Local baseball is underway and our teams (Loyola, New Trier, Highland Park) have found early-season successes. We talk what that means for the season. Do they have what it takes? We do the same exercise for our softball locals, as Loyola and New Trier should be factors all year. We end with some boys hoops chatter. Sure, the season is over, but a pair of ex New Trier hoopers have made big college decisions.
