Starting league during spring break isn’t the best of situations, but we’ll make the most of it.” The Outlaws open the home season on April 10 hosting 7-1 Junction City, ranked No. 4 in state 4A rank- ings. Game time is 4 p.m. On Friday the 13th, Sisters will host Cottage Grove in a double-header beginning at 3 p.m. All three games will be played at Volunteer Field. This will be the Outlaws’ final year as a member of the Sky-Em along with Elmira, Sutherlin, Sweet Home, Cottage Grove and Junction City. Due to OSAA realignment starting in fall 2018, in spring 2019 they will compete in the Oregon West League with Newport, Philomath, Stayton, Sweet Home and Woodburn.
