  St. Francis scores early and often Apr 24, 2013 12:00 AM
  St. Francis is making it a habit to score early runs on the road this season. It's a pattern Ralph Remus can get used to. "That's a good way to start the game," said the Spartans coach, congratulating his girls on doing do Wednesday. "It's a runs advantage, and it's a psychological advantage to come out like that." The Spartans sure got off the bus swinging Wednesday. St. Francis batted around in a six-run first inning, setting the tone in a 15-6 win at Wheaton Academy.
