Spring drills begin Wednesday for Abilene High with a shorts-and-shirts practice. Thursday also will be a shorts-and-shirts day, but after taking Friday off the team will return Monday with full pads.

Drills typically will begin after school, around 4 p.m., and the team will have Friday scrimmages at Shotwell Stadium. The spring will culminate with the annual Black and Gold game Friday, May 18 at Shotwell. The JV game will start at 4:30 p.m., and varsity follows at 7 p.m.
