2023 OUTLOOK:
"With the return of several players from the 2022 campaign, Southeast Polk is looking toward its Senior class to lead the 2023 season. We have many returning starters that will be looking to contribute from the plate and the mound. Our schedule, in my opinion, is one of the most difficult in the state because of our conference and our travel, but we will be up for it. We are looking forward to competing every pitch, every out, every day, all year long."
Head Coach Scot Surprenant
