1. Boys Lacrosse vs. Owen J. Roberts (7:30 p.m., Monday) - Owen J. Roberts is certainly one of SFHS's biggest rivals, but the boys lacrosse team should be geared up for this one. The Wildcats have a 2-1 record, and the Rams are 3-1 so far - their only loss coming to Avon Grove on Friday. This game has other implications, too, as head coach Kevin Donnelly is one win away from 100 at Spring-Ford.
2. Girls Lacrosse vs. Owen J. Roberts (6:00 p.m., Monday) - The girls and Owen J. Roberts are another heated rivalry. The Wildcats sit at 1-1, with their sole win coming over Methacton. The Rams, on the other hand, have had a few more games, sitting at 2-3 currently. A win here could be a nice boost for the experienced Lady Rams squad.

3. Track & Field vs. Methacton and Boyertown (3:15 p.m., Wednesday; home) - Track & Field has been busy this spring. They picked up their first two wins on both the boys and girls sides last week in a meet against Upper Perkiomen and Perkiomen Valley. This week, they'll face off against the Bears of Boyertown and the Warriors of Methacton. Look for the girls team to be primed for the Methacton matchup, as the Warriors won the league title on the girls side last year.
4. Baseball @ (4:00 p.m., Wednesday) - This looks like it will be a good neighborhood rivalry matchup this week, as both teams have pretty similar records. The Rams are 2-1, while the Panthers are 3-2, each team losing to a very good Phoenixville team. The Rams got blown out by the Phantoms in their matchup, but JPII only lost by one in a very close game. Look for both teams to come ready to play in this one.
5. Boys Lacrosse in HEADstrong Rivalry Games (5:30 p.m., Saturday @ Widener University) - The Rams will face Perkiomen Valley in this matchup after facing OJR and Pottsgrove earlier in the week. This could be a matter of momentum or fatigue, but the boys have looked good as of late.
