High school fall sports practices begin this week

Monday marked the first day of preseason practices for fall sports across the state of Missouri.

Nevada High School's Fall sports teams include the football and boys' swimming teams and the Lady Tigers volleyball, golf, tennis and softball squads. Pre-season workouts also begin today for Tigers and Lady Tigers cross country runners.

With the beginning of preseason workouts comes the realization for players and coaches alike that fall sports seasons are about to begin. Along with the football and softball schedules, the Lady Tigers tennis and golf schedules open in the final week of August, while the swimming, volleyball and cross country schedules are set to begin in September.

There are currently no home dates on the swimming and cross country schedules, but the softball, volleyball and tennis teams will all open their seasons at Nevada High School.
