(La Porte, IN) - The La Porte Slicers varsity and junior varsity games scheduled today in Portage will be played in La Porte.

 

Director of Athletics Ed Gilliland said rain in the forecast for Wednesday is why both varsity games and the junior varsity game against Portage will be played now at Schreiber Field and Clarke Parke.

 

The varsity team is 3-1 from a doubleheader sweep against Logansport and a doubleheader split against Valparaiso.

 

WCOE/96.7 the Eagle Sports Broadcaster, Chip Jones, said this year's team has a lot of potential with a deep pitching staff and offense scoring a lot of runs. Jones said he believes the varsity team is good enough to contend for the Duneland Conference championship and go deep into the postseason tournament.

 

Today's games start at 4:45 p.m. The varsity games will be broadcast live on 96.7 the Eagle. Listen online at 967theeagle.com.
