OUTLOOK
Coach Clecker: "First Baptist Academy will follow the lead of their senior ace, Kyle Cipolla, who is in a good position for success mentally and physically on the mound. It will take a team effort from the plate to give them opportunities to stay in games. Their pitching staff has improved and will be key to keeping their opponents struggling and give their offense a chance to create momentum.“
