2024 OUTLOOK

”We have quite a bit of experience returning at critical positions on the field, in our lineup, and in our pitching rotation. This will be huge for us. As long as guys stay healthy and on the mound, pitching should be a strength. While we certainly have some spots to fill, this is an experienced group who has been through a lot together over the years. They're a coachable and fun crew, and I'm excited to see what we can accomplish for this large group of seniors in their last season of varsity baseball." - Kyle Shaughnessy, Head Coach
