Monday Sports Wrap - April 15, 2013

[FULL STORY]

Last week’s weather postponed a couple of games, but the Greenies are gearing up to get back on the field and continue the season. Get all of the latest news about last week’s games and upcoming competitions in this week’s Monday Sports Wrap.

Special Update: Duke Douglas ’13 has committed to the University of Denver. His commanding court presence has already made him a player of the week, earned him a spot on the All-State team, and made him the Times-Picayune Player of the Year. His skills have garnered the interest of several schools, but he will be “settling out west” as a member of the University of Denver Pioneers. Congratulations, Duke!
