X-FACTOR

Joey Lawson - 2024 Player of the Year Finalist

OUTLOOK

After a run to states in 2024, Bishop Verot returns many starters and looks to make another run. Graduating two of their top hitters in Jason Bello and Maddix Simpson, Verot will look for some younger players to step up and fill their void. Bishop Verot does return 2024 Player of the Year Finalist Joey Lawson, who hit .446 with 40 RBI and pitched to a 1.62 ERA in 57 innings last season.
