There was to have been a game with Gore last Thursday in the Dewar Festival, but two Wolverines players while on defense collided going for the same ball in the first inning. Coach John Brockman said one of the two players is OK, but the other player suffered an fractured orbital bone and will find out this week if surgery is needed to repair the injury. The game ended up being postponed.
The Wolverines will play in the Ripley Spring Break Tournament, which will be Thursday through Saturday.
