Rivers Kurland

OUTLOOK

Berkeley Prep returns a fairly young team looking to continue to build on last season. Their ace returns in Rivers Kurland while Ben O'Brien and Parker Mitzel will be relied upon heavily on the mound as well. The lineup consists of many underclassmen who Berkeley will look upon to step up in key moments. Coach Warren feels confident his team will compete amongst the best in the state.
