EG takes on non-conference opponent Madrid tonight in Madrid. The Hawks will look to pick up another conference win when they host Walnut on Thursday. They are back in action on Friday at Colo-Nesco. The regular season ends next week with games on Monday at Orient-Macksburg and Tuesday in Rippey against Glidden-Ralston. The OM game will be a partial doubleheader as the teams will first complete a game suspended June 14 in Rippey. The game will resume with OM leading 8-2 after 4 ½ innings. The GR game is a makeup from May 31. It will be last East Greene baseball game ever at the Walt Anderson field in Rippey as next year East Greene begins sports sharing with Jefferson-Scranton as Greene County.
The Hawks and Glidden-Ralston will meet up again on Saturday, July 7, in an opening round district game at Coon Rapids. The winner moves on to face top-seeded Coon Rapids-Bayard on Tuesday, July 10, in Coon Rapids.
