2016 Spring Team Preview: Brecksville-Broadview Heights Bees

Team Name: Brecksville-Broadview Heights Bees
Head Coach: John Mutch
Division: I
2015 Record: 21-6
Conference Record: Southwestern, 10-2
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 5/1

2016 Team Strengths:

• Leadership
• Coachability
• Competitiveness

2016 Team Weaknesses:

• Depth
• Experience

PBR Outlook: The Bees look to reload after a 21-6 season in 2015. The lack of experience could hurt the Bees, but they have proved over the years that they normally have the resources to reload. Will once again be a team to watch in 2016.
