Strengths:  Experience - we have 11 returning letter winners from last year, and the younger players who are getting Varsity time play a lot of softball

Question marks:  On-field experience working together with the newcomers; with the weather conditions, it's been tough to get game-like scenarios at practice, but that will happen as soon as the weather gets more consistent.

Outlook: Optimistic that we will be competitive in the SOL American Conference this year.
