Cole German – Jr – Outfield
Matt Weir – Sr – Pitcher
JR Hicks – Jr - Infield

Others to watch:

Strengths/Question Marks:  “We return two starting pitchers as seniors with experience.  We also return three positions players as seniors (Whitney, Tully, and Callender), and then you sprinkle in a lot of young, inexperienced talent, and we will see how things play out.  Overall, we are a young team, so I expect some young players running into road blocks in their progress.

Outlook:  “Our goal is to get better every time we take the field either in practice or game.  These guys are working their rear ends off, and I am excited for them and their energy.” 

GAMES TO WATCH: 
CR North vs CR South
Pennsbury vs Neshaminy
