2024 OUTLOOK

”We will be returning a number of players that saw playing time at the varsity level last year. We should be solid defensively. We have a lot of varsity arms on our pitching staff this year. They are young and will need to adjust to varsity caliber hitters. Offensively we need to move the baseball and runners. For our team to be successful, we will need to put the ball in play, bunt, and hit and run.” - Mike Beilke, Head Coach
