Strengths/Question Marks:  Despite graduating so many seniors, we have several players who are ready to play varsity baseball.

Outlook:  The team’s goal is to go one game at a time. Last year we lost to the last place team in the league and ended up a game out of first place. The SOL-American is one of the tougher leagues in District 1 and anyone can win on any given day. Guidos, Robison, and Pierce were some of the top players in the league at their positions and look to improve on their performances from last year.”
