UPPER MERION BASEBALL PREVIEW

Coach: Matt Mitchell- 1st year

Assistant coaches: Ryan Albright, Brian Diehl, Ryan Mitchell

Last year’s record: 5-15

Notable Senior losses: Chris Laschiavo,  Dalton Armenti, Brian Rindress

Key returners: Michael Greenwood C/1B, Bobby Landmesser CF, Carmen Fortino SS, Hunter Saunders P

Others to watch: Alex DelGiudice C, Andrew DelGiudice 2B

Strengths: Strong Senior Leadership, Solid Defensive Outfield, Depth at Pitching

Question Marks:  The success of the season will be determined by many new starters at the varsity level.  The senior core and a few key underclassmen will make or break the season.

Outlook: “This year’s team is a senior laden team and our veterans make up the core of the lineup.  Our depth at pitching and in the outfield should help us compete in a tough SOL American conference.  We look for key contributions from a few underclassmen who are going to be given a chance to gain valuable experience for the future while helping to hopefully propel this year’s team towards success.”
