As we prepare for the upcoming 2016 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.

Team: Augusta HS

Class: 4A-D1
Conference: AVCTL
Head Coach: Doug Jefferson
Years as head coach at school: 6 
2015 Overall Record: 17-5
2015 Conference Record: 5-5

Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 5

Players with 2015 Post Season Honors

Season Outlook
August looks to remain as one of the top team in their class with the return of five position players and three pitchers that threw significant innings last season.  The Orioles return three players from last year's team with post season honors.  Junior RHP Nolan Riley will be the ace of the staff, earning 2nd Team-All Conference honors a year ago. Augusta will also be lead by all league Senior 3B Cody Westbrooks and UTL Dallin Marlnee. Coach Jefferson had his team one game away from playing in the state championship a season ago, and look to take that next step in 2016.
