A rough survey of Michigan newspapers over the last week found at least 13 reported on how this spring's rainy (snowy?) weather has affected spring high school sports.
But a few more teams finally made it outside – although all-weather sports like soccer again dominated play during the middle week of April.
Here's a look at some of the highlights, with links to local coverage:
