The Luxemburg-Casco Spartans play host to the Fox Valley Lutheran Foxes on Saturday in a North Eastern Conference baseball doubleheader.

The Spartans (8-5, 11-5 overall) are coming off a 5-0 shutout of the Ripon Tigers in non-conference play on Thursday, while Fox Valley Lutheran (8-5, 9-9 overall) fell to the Freedom Irish 6-0 on Monday night.

Tied for fourth place in the NEC, both teams are looking to finish the regular season finishes up.  Coach Dan Routhieaux says the competition in the NEC is strong, and the Ripon game is a good precursor to the upcoming WIAA tournament.

The pregame show for the first game will begin at 10:45 a.m. Saturday with the first pitch set for 11 a.m. on 104.1 WRLU.  The second game will start about 15 minutes after the opener with both games on-air and streamed at New Radio Sports Network.  Paul Schmitt and Eric Fischer will have the call from the Luxemburg-Casco Sports Complex.
