Outlook: “We return 12 Varsity players including five position players that started games and five pitchers that saw significant innings on the mound. Among the returners are 1st Team All SOL Pitcher Keller Bradley who has two years of starts under his belt and HM SOL 1B Dylan Hirsh who will move behind the plate this season. Four-year letter winner Ryan Webber returns at SS and Evan Hawkes will move from RF to CF. Carlton Crane (2B) and Ben Seidler (3B/OF) saw several starts and ABs in 2024. Pitching seems to be the strength as a cast of Falcons will contribute on the mound, which will prove to be valuable with the new SOL three-game series. Senior pitchers Mason Keith and Joe Beitler and 2026 Connor O’Brien gave us successful starts and middle relief innings last year, and we project the same for 2025. Senior Aidan Kenney returns to his closing role from last year where he earned six saves and gave up 0 runs and 0 hits all season. Several newcomers including seven sophomores will compete to round out the pen and lineup. Our goal as always is to win the SOL Patriot Division title and compete in the District 1 and State playoffs.”
