WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

Expectations for Team - Strong group of upperclassmen that can help propel this team past expectations and compete for a conference title. 

From the Coach, Expected Team Strength
We return a strong group of core players with varsity experience. Dalton Hazlett (Campbell Commit) and Landon Finley (Patrick and Henry CC Commit) are returning All SPC pitchers. Alex Walker (Coastal Carolina Commit Football) will anchor the infield. Tyler Smith will hit in the middle of the order and play right field. Three-year starter Blake Gaffey (Wake Tech Commit) will give us veteran leadership behind the plate. 

THOUGHTS ON THE CONFERENCE:
We hope to battle for a playoff spot in a tough conference (SPC). West Rowan and East Rowan seem to be the frontrunners, but the rest of the conference is very good.
