STRENGTHS: The team earned valuable experience last season. With a number of returning varsity players, the team should feel more confident competing this season. Competition at all positions should make us a hungry team.
QUESTION MARKS: The one question mark on the team is if they do not all have the same goal. If all the players sacrifice and play as a team, the season will be a success. Evan Myers did a great job on the mound last season. The team will need to have more depth on the mound if they want to compete.
OUTLOOK: “The team has a number of players returning from last season. The team lost a lot of close games. With the experience of last season and the leadership being shown by some of the older players, the opportunity for success is there. As always if the entire team has a ‘team attitude,’ we will have success. If the players continue to practice hard and have the same goal - winning, we will have a successful season.”
FUN FACT: The team is planning its annual weekend trip to the Poconos. This will be the tenth year for the trip. It is a great time to bond with teammates and have some competitive fun. An intense wiffle ball tournament is always a highlight of the weekend along with some great food.
