Prep Baseball Report Kansas

As we prepare for our 2014 high school preseason coverage we are going to take a quick glance at teams from across the state.

Team: Blue Valley Northwest
Nickname: Huskies
Class:
6A
League:
Eastern Kansas League
Head Coach: Corby Lange
Years as Head Coach at School: 10
2013 Overall Record: 12-10
2013 League Record: 6-8
2013 Post-Season Finish: Lost in regional championship game
Returning starters: 4

TOP RETURNERS (Listed Alphabetically)

Sam Chadick, RHP/OF, Class of 2014
Clayton Custer, IF, Class of 2014, Iowa State signee (basketball), 2nd Team All-State
Jackson Fuller, IF, Class of 2014, Lindenwood signee, 1st Team All-State
Chase Kilty, C, Class of 2014, All-Eastern Kansas League
Alex Pener, RHP/1B, Class of 2014
Ross Perez, RHP, Class of 2014

OUTLOOK:  

The Huskies only return four starters off of last year’s team that lost in the regional final to eventual 6A state champion Blue Valley West.  The returning group is highlighted by a very talented and proven middle infield consisting of All-State performers Clay Custer and Jackson Fuller.  Due to the graduation losses many opportunities exist for new faces to emerge in the line-up and on the mound.  Like the other Blue Valley schools there is no shortage of talent within Northwest’s program to choose from including one of the strongest sophomore classes in the state.
