A message from Coach Norris for those interested in #HMS softball tryouts: "Good morning! I have decided to go ahead and cancel our tryouts on 5/22 and 5/26! The weather is not looking like it will be in our favor, and I am not willing to take the risk of having a wet field for tryouts! These will be postponed to a later date; I will keep everybody updated! Thank you all for your unwavering support; I appreciate each and everyone of you🤎"
