2024 OUTLOOK

”We are hopeful for a very successful season! We have a strong senior class to lead the team with some very talented underclassmen in supporting roles. One of our strengths this year will be depth on the mound. We have a lot of boys that can eat up some innings for us. Defense continues to be one of our strengths as well, averaging just under 2 errors per game last year. If we can get the bats going, we will be in a good position to make a deep run in the playoffs. Go Dogs!” - Brett Knudsen, Head Coach
