X-FACTOR

Former MLB player Seth McClung has taken over the program and started to rebuild this program. 

OUTLOOK

Coach McClung: "This program has had a .270 winning percentage the last 11 years and really hasn’t made much noise the last 20-25 years. I took over the program in July and promptly got all the guys in a summer program. A team made up of mostly TSHS kids went 7-2-1 this fall and we really started to work on these kids' confidence. We are going to count on younger guys to fill some gaps but this ship is turning around. I have turned programs around in the past, I completely rebuilt the Keswick Christian program in one season.”
