COUNCIL ROCK SOUTH BASEBALL PREVIEW

Notable losses:

Bret DeStefano– P/OF – Kutztown University

Brian Donnelly– P/OF – Rider University

Jeff Miller– RF/P – St.Peters University

Dan Callahan– C – LaSalle University

Stevie Wright– SS – Gettysburg

Key Returning Players:

Outlook:  After a senior loaded squad came up one game short of the state title last year and veteran head coach Greg Young stepped down, it is anybody’s guess how the Golden Hawks will rebound.  They have a young and inexperienced team that is eager to start the season.
