This Week in the Forest: April 5-11

This Week in the Forest: April 5-11

Football and men's soccer compete for the first time in 2021 this week. Football opens their season at home against Greenville University while men's soccer travels to Ripon College.

Softball hosts two double headers as well as travels for a third; the season is in full swing for them.

Volleyball and women's soccer also compete twice this week. Volleyball will face Ripon twice, once at home and once away. Women's soccer hosts both of their games; their match against Illinois College is their home opener.

Both men's and women's golf travel to Wisconsin for their respective tournaments while the track team has a meet in eastern Illionis.

Please note that there is a new spectator policy for the Forester home games moving forward.
