2023 OUTLOOK:
"We return a solid nucleus from last years team but did lose our top two pitchers. It will need to be a collective effort to replace those arms. We should put a solid nine defenders in the field that will limit the amount of mistakes and not beat ourselves. We will need a few bats to step up but should be a team that can score with most anyone as well. If we play to our potential we should make another run at the conference and section."
