New Luxemburg-Casco baseball manager Ryan Brown got one milestone off his list last week when the Spartans topped Notre Dame in its opening game. The Pennsylvania native moved to the area after getting a promotion with Green Bay-based Schneider National and officially got the job last fall. Brown says the weather made it a challenge to get going this season.

The Spartans hope to get their second win of the season when they travel to Marinette for a 4:30 p.m. game.
