Strengths:  Good talent, good athleticism. 

Question Marks: Youth and inexperience at the Varsity level. 

Outlook:  “Can the young players handle the pressure of Varsity softball?  We have two kids on the entire roster with any significant varsity experience.  Our athleticism will help, lack of experience and players playing some new positions will be a challenge.  We should be strong in the circle and behind the plate.  Offensively, the challenge will be to adapt to the higher level of pitching these players will be seeing for the first time.”
