The team will be anchored by 4 strong returning starting P's in Caleb Kidd '24 (LHP) & Zach Hitchcock '24 (LHP), Ashton Rooney '25 & Joel Mator '25 (LHP). Talon Vanhovel '25 and Easton Curry '26 also saw time on the mound last season and will look to make their mark on the program. In addition to pitching, the team's strengths will be position versatility and depth. Kidd and Rooney return to anchor the batting lineup after earning All-League and All-District honors in 2023.
