What to Watch For:
One returning pitcher from a team that made a deep run in the 3A playoffs in 2016.
The offense should score enough runs, along with a solid defense to allow the pitching staff to develop. If the young arms mature fast enough, the Chargers will be looking forward to another state playoff run.
