2024 OUTLOOK

”We lost Quentin Wolf, Andy Rahe, and Reece Carlson to graduation. They will be tough to replace. We do however like what we have coming back. We were in almost every game last season but struggled to find a way to get over the hump. We will need to play solid defense, pitch well, and have timely hitting to reach our goals for the season.”- Joe Kruger, Head Coach
