The Wilmington Sharks were rained out on Wednesday, thus pushing back the home opener.

Buck Hardee Field will see the team take the field on Friday, pushing first pitch back two days, as the Sharks open up the 2008 Coastal Plain League season against Fayetteville.

Wednesday’s game against Wilson was re-scheduled as part of a double-header later in the season.  Make sure you check out this week’s issue of the Cape Fear Sports Report for our season preview on the club.
