Coach Rieland - "The 2024 team had a great season as we did not lose a game in our school district. We ran into a buzz saw with South Walton in the district tournament and then again in the playoffs. We pitched real well last year and have both our starters returning in Hosman and Phillips. Our catcher, Ashton Bailey received 2nd Team All-PNJ Honors. OF Adam Geiger received the same honor".
