Upper Moreland Baseball - Boys Preview (2010-2011)

UPPER MORELAND BASEBALL PREVIEW

Head Coach: Ernie Rehr – 4th Season
 
Last Year’s Record: 8-6 SOL and 10-8 overall; lost in District Semifinal
 
Key Losses: 2B Lucas Armstrong, 3B Tim Santry, P Craig Miekley, OF Pat McKay
 
Key Returnees: Seniors- Dave McInerney (Catcher); Juniors – Sean Valenza (SS), Mike Janas (P), Ryan Snyder (INF), Kyle Walder (P); Sophomores – Robert Knox (P), Matt Kohn (OF)
 
Others to Watch: Seniors – Kyle Lockard (P); Juniors - Tyler Foerst (OF); Sophomore – Dan Cripps (INF), Freshmen – Charlie Hooker (INF/P)
 
Strengths: Having a strong catcher to lead to the team is a major plus. We have a good number of returning players from last years team to give us experience.
 
Question Marks: As a program, are we ready to go to the next level?   Do we have the depth to succeed in an 18 game league schedule?
 
Outlook: Without major injury we should compete for one of the top spots in the conference and district for the third year running. We return talented players at key positions and look for some younger players to fill in full time at other spots. This season will be unlike any other with 18 league games. We must maintain composure for all 18 games and not let any one win or loss sway us too much.
