Dayton Dragons News Release


Dayton, Ohio- This spring, Fifth Third Field and the Dayton Dragons will host play host to a series of high school baseball games for the 12th straight season. On Sunday, Covington and St. Henry take the field in a non-conference tilt.

The games at Fifth Third Field also serve as a fundraiser for the participating schools. This year's series of games will raise approximately $30,000 for the schools to help with the cost of uniforms, equipment, and bus transportation.

The game on Sunday will get underway at 4:00 p.m. Covington hails from the Cross County Conference, while St. Henry competes in the Midwest Athletic Conference.

The GWOC doubleheader that was scheduled for Saturday afternoon has been postponed due to the anticipated inclement weather. Beavercreek-Fairborn and Greenville-West Carrollton will rescheduled for another date at Fifth Third Field later in the season.

The Dayton Dragons have been hosting the Miami Valley's best baseball teams since 2006 and are proud to continue the tradition for a 12th consecutive year. A complete list of high school baseball games scheduled to be played at Fifth Third Field can be found below.

All games are free to attend and the media are invited to cover them. Gates will open 30 minutes prior to the first game played that day. High schools may provide their own PA announcers, broadcasters, cheer squads, and national anthem singers. Participating schools sell Dragons tickets to help raise money for their programs.
