With the winter sports of basketball and swimming winding down, many students are ready for spring and summer, finally! Along with spring comes the joy of the sun’s rays, the demise of snow, and best of all, outdoor sports. Many of these sports include lacrosse, baseball, and outdoor track, one of my favorites.

For many athletes spring means freedom from the inside and the ability to compete in favorable and sometimes not so favorable weather. It means expanding the playing field and your hard work as well. Spring means dedication to go outside every day and drive for the gold even in the frigid cold or humid heat. Spring means freedom, and for the Lewiston High School students freedom isn’t very far away.
