Strengths/Question Marks:  Hopefully, pitching will be our strength. We have a talented group of young players at both Varsity and JV levels. I’m excited about the future.

Outlook: “We are expecting a productive season from our starting seniors. The key will be the play of junior, Brett Smith. We lost our senior pitcher Tim Saiber to a football injury.
“Our goal is to improve our league play, especially with the cross over games and go to the states.”
